R HENRY Prlchett. presi dent emeritus of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, in the annual report of the foundation makes the bold assertion , that the leaders of the American Legion "In tend to raid the treas ury of the United R. T. O’Neil. States.” And he ques- tlons the patriotism of war veteran» who ftsk pensions or bonuses when un injured. Under the subheading "Pa triotism, Pensions and Politics." Doc tor I’richett says: “There has come about in our coun try a complex of patriotism, bonus seeking, and politics the like of which can be found In no other nation on earth. Organizations that started In pure patriotism have lent themselves to pension lobbying on,such a form as to demoralize both the veterans and congress.’’ "Erroneous and unfair" is what Ralph T. O’Neil, national commander of the American Legion, says of the Prlcliett statement, adding: "The American Legion never lias In the past or. In my opinion, never will In the future, ask anything that is un fair or thut will place an unjust finan cial burden on the country." He says the real »bjectlve of the vet erans’ organization Ims been to get disability compensation, but that it never has asked a pension for able- bodied men.
