Legion Praised
By Paul McNutt
IndianapoIl, Ind., Aug. 21 W
The American Legion s new
national headquarters building
wa dedicated yesterday with
praise from former Legion com
mander, Paul V. McNutt, for
the Legion's stand on prepared
ness.
McNutt, war manpower com
missioner during world war H,
described the Legion as "for 30
years ... a voice crying in the
wilderness."
As flags of the United States
and United Nations waved above
he told an outdoor audience:
"Americans love freedom
with such a passion that they
instinctively resect any move
which smacks of regimentation.
"If I am any judge of their
temper at the moment It would
seem that after mature consid
eration rather than emotional
judgment, they are ready to sub
mit themselves to such controls
as are necessary during, but only
during, the period of national
danger."
"McNutt restated the Legion's
advocacy of universal military
training and mobilization of all
resources. He continued:
"All freedom-loving nations
and peoples look to us. We are
ready to support and befriend
our allies and to cooperate with
movements designed to Isolate
totalitarianism and tryanny."
The $2,500,000 structure, built
by the state of Indiana, was pre
sented by Governor Schrlcker to
George N. Craig of Brazil, Ind.,
region national commander.

SOS Call for
Labor Made
"Help! Help!" cried W. H.
Baillic, Salem manager for the
state employment service Mon
day as he was besieged by both
bean and hop growers for addi
tional harvest hands.
"I could use 3000 hop pick
ers in the Independence area
alone," remarked the employ
ment officer. "On top of that
there is a need for 1500 bean
pickers in the Stayton area and
1500 more in beans and hops in
the north and east portions of
the county.
High temperatures during the
day and warm nights have
brought the hops into maturity
much faster than had been an
ticipated. Then, too, the beans
keep right on growing. So much
so, in fact, that pickers have not
been able to got them off the
vines fast enough.
In some instances Baillie re
lates, the swimming hole has had
mucli more appeal to the young
er generation than the humid
conditions that prevail between
the bean rows.

down of lumber shipments In

In a hard-hitting campaign
speech, Flegel flailed the admin
istration of Gov. Douglas McKay

policies."
The Southern Pacific railroad

Flegel declared It had been either
unable or unwilling to provide
sufficient cars for lumber ship
ments at the points where it en
joys a monopoly.

also pledged himself to carry out
the mandate of voters In 1948
for an immediate juvenile penal
institution.

from burns, was found in his
isolated cabin today, ending a
search for him by posses that
had combed the backwoods
above Marial.
Te burned man, Bill Garlff,

ment.

Neighbors found his provision-
