Col leges, religious groups, business in stitutions, wearers of the purple heart, all appealed to certain quali fied veterans to join and support their particular new veteran club. Now, 13 months after VJ Day, only two new veteran organizations have enlisted a membership which lifts them above the rank and file of the other groups. The first is the American Veter ans of World War II, (Amvets), which claims an estimated 90,000 members. Membership figures can not be verified and only those fig ures released by the organization heads are available. The Amvets are a result of the consolidation of doz ens of small groups which threw in their hands with the Amvet team m 1944 at the Kansas City conven tion. This is believed to be, numeri cally. the most powerful of the new veterans organizations. The second most powerful group to organize during World War II was the American Veterans Com mittee, (AVC). With the slogan “citizens first, veterans second,” the delegates of the estimated 60, 000 members took a firm stand against the veterans’ bonus at their Des Moines meeting in June of this year. 1UC XV V VUWJJVV1 —£ has some 40 members. Bach week this group sponsors a forum featur ing some speakers in accord with their present theme “make every veteran a voter.” If veterans have further interest in this group they Should contact Chairman Paul Deutschmann through the main journalism office or see Roy John son, secretary of the chapter. Some veteran groups with mem bership qualification based on ra cial and religious backgrounds in clude the Catholic War Veterans and the Jewish War Veterans of the United States. Also the United Negro and Allied Veterans of Amer ica have formed in hopes to recruit the nation’s nearly 1,000,000 Negro veterans of World War II, The two largest veteran organi zations in the country, increasing in size since the first World war, are the American Legion and the Veter ans of Foreign Wars. The first speaks of a 2,500,000 membership count, including 1,500,000 men and women of World War II, and the latter estimates its group at 1,600, 000. Again, such figures are not verifiable except as received from the particular organization. Copy Desk Staff: Jane Mathey Marge Ram bo Vivian Richardson Dale E.
