T he L egion never retreats but m arches on and on, each

S elfish interest and political rack eteers w ho live by e x ­
ploitering the com m on people fear the Legion, which is
becom in g m ore and m ore insistent in that dem and every
day. T he Legion h a s secured directly through its ow n e f­
forts jobs for m ore than a m illion m en this last year, and
is organizing now for a still stro n g er fight on unem ploy­

T he country at large can have faith in the Am erican
Legion to do the right th in g a lw ays despite th e propaganda
