Bakerv American Legion Membership Day Monday, February 23 Join Umpqua Post No. 16, American Legion of Oregon, and give your support to veterans' legislation and help provide relief for your dis abled buddies. The American Legion is faced with the tak of immediately bringing its membership up to the largest possible figure. The national commander has sent out word that the re sult of veterans' legislation now before congress depends almost entirely upon the influ ence that can be shown by the American Legion. A large membership in every section of the country is by far the greatest and most important evidence we can produce that the veterans are united in support of legislation necessary for the welfare of their disabled comrades. Here in Oregon the American Legion is also faced by the task of bringing the na tional convention to Portland in 1932. This will require cooperation on the part of every post in the state, with large memberships in eachto assist in the preliminary cam paign for this great meeting. Buddy, do your part now by paying your 1931 membership in Umpqua Post. The names of the 1931 members are to be registered in the Umpqua Post history, now be ing printed. Teams will be working in all sections of the county Monday. Have your four bucks ready and tell the solicitors where there are other buddies who should be members of the post.
