with its war dead and bend its efforts to a perpetuation of World
peace, was the Armistice Day message of John R. McQuigg,
national commander of the Amencan Legion.
"It is seven year since the last shell burst beyond the
Me use," the message read. "Seven years since the great guns
fell silent and men's ears, long deafened by the thunder of war,
at last felt the sweet silence of peace. r
. "Seven years ago men died with only the requiem of ar
tillery fire and machine pun chatter in the belief that war had
claimed it last dead.: ..Thousands., of healthy., youth were
maimed and hopelessly disabled in that war to end war.
"Today is Armistice Day, the seventh anniversary of their
sacrifice. It is also peace day, the day when we who came out
of, that conflict unscathed should give an accounting of our ef
forts to keen faith with the dead and bring into reality the ideal
for which they died world peace. ' . 1 1
. "The American Legion has pledged itself to the support
of a three fold peace program.
."The immediate adherence by the United States to a per
manent court of international justice.
"The enactment into law of the people of the universal
draft, commandeering the men, money and materials of this
America on equal basis of sacrifice. The American Legion be
lieves that by removing profiteering and privilege from war, the
chances of war are materially lessened. ''
"The maintenance of adeouate forces for internal and ex
ternal defense is in keeping with out dignity as a world nower.
, "The American Legion, in the name of those who cannot
speak for themselves, offers this program of peace in the belief
that future generations may be spared the cost in blood and
treasure of war so terrible that civilization itself might not endure."
