The Ameri can Legion has taken the lead in so much of government affairs of late, he ciutioned that now wo need to hold back a little. "Let us." ho emphasized, "utilize duly organized agencies of government affording ihem Information, hut guarding against slander and ma If -clous talk. Let the nations of th" world know that wo will accept deaths. We will take it for our selves and for our sons rather than 'surrender one thing for which our flag stands! What are thpse men who eavV up every -liberty of an Individual, who became a cog In a machine, who paid the supreme sacrifice, trying to toll us" he asked. "That we keep cool heads. Hut that if the time ihall ever come when the neces sity of war is observed that til decision for war be marie on no less Justification than death itself, that national life may be per petuated, I,et us." he insisted, "keen a calm citizenry!
