LEGION MEET STORY (CONTINUED FROM PAGE I) veution swung into action following the fonnnl opening. Committees of both the lesion and the auxiliary were organized and ordered to report back tomorrow. All attention was turned this after noon to tlie tin Kenan cnanipioiiMiip series between Wondburn nnd Kugene In the first game and Hood lliver and Port In ml In the second. The climax of today's events will come tonight with the official legion parade. Dm in corps contests, baseball and tho continuation of business ses sions will be the order for tomorrow. The first and paramount duty of the lesion, the national adjutant said, is to serve the truly disabled veterans and war dependents. ''When the le gion fails to protect the men wounded in battle, or disabled in the field of service actually and truly service connected," he said, "then, and then alone the American Legion fails to justify its existence." The national organization of the le gion "came to the crossroads," Sam uel said, with the passing of the econ omy net In the short session of con gress. He said he holds no brief, "and I believe no ether right thinking le--gionnaire holds a brief, for the in equalities, that existed In some of the previous legislation." These inequali ties, he said, were first recognized by the rehabilitation service workers of the legion, "in fact, the legion has al ways sought to correct Injustices and nhvnys placed a man who is suffering disabilities due directly to war ser vice, obove and beyond every other consideration." Some inequalities crept Into those benefits, Samuel observed, nnd he de clared "the Legion is ns much oppos ed to those who take advantage of technicalities as anyone." , Samuel said the legion itself sought to make corrections of inequalities through sifting all legislation already enncted and lcgifdation about to lie introduced for the benefit of veter ans, so as to eliminate therefrom any injustices, either to the veterans or to the government. Before this legislative work could be completed, he said, congress wiped out all the laws and the legion took this action "on the chin." The' legion then, ha said, "immediately declared its implicit faitb and, trust in our pres ident and offered its steadfast devotion and its utmost help to the president in solving this problem whieh congress laid at his feet." Samuel emphasized to' the Oregon THE EUGENE legion members that "leas than ten per cent of the men who have ever received compensation from our gov eminent are members of the Amerl can Legion." He said this fact is the most forceful argument In the legion work on behalf of the disabled, a it is self-evident proof that the legion program is entirely unselfish." Road Matters Are Talked With County J. K. Turnbull, chairman of ti.e Eu gene chamber of commerce roads and highways committee, and Carl G. Wushburne, member of the state high way commission, were in Albany Wed nesday, conferring with Linn county officials on road matters, particularly on the old prospect of a road leading out from Mabel in Lane county as a short-nit connecting with Linn county near Crawford villa uud Sweet liume. . Only an informal discussion was ; held and no action of any sort taken, Mr. Turnbull said. There is no reason ! to believe that the counties can even consider doing anything ou the pro ject for at least a year from now, be cause of lack of money, Mr. Turnbull said. The matter is entirely a matter for the counties, the highway department of the state having nothing to do with rhe proposal. The presence of Mr. Washburne at the discussion was merely as an interested onlooker. since, as a member of the highway commission he is interested in various road projects about the state, Mr, rurnbull said.
