(ContlDMd from Pint Fan) tility of war is seen by the organi zation. Unpreparedness has never kept the United States out of war. Too great an extravagance of mon ey and life results from unprepar edness. The Legion favors, during war, universal draft of property as well as man power. It is opposed to profiteering from war, such as exist ed during the World war. Thou sands made enormous profits at home while others were making the greatest of sacrifices in France for their country. Community service is one of the big activities of the Legion. The Oregon department urges every post to join with worthwhile activ ities, to justify the post's existence In the community. The aim is to make each community a better place In which to live through activ ities of the posts. Legion Serve Others.
