G. B. Gates Ss been selected as chairman jbt the local campaign and there is no - question but that the people of Med ford will give liberally when culled upon for these two worthy causes. There are thousands of orphans of .deceased ex-service men throughout the United States .and the Legion feels that it is Its duty to Bee that these children are given . an 'equal chance with all other children. There are no ' laws' on the statute books of our gov ernment which will give these child ren the care and attention that they will require If they are to grow to manhood and become citizens. There are thousands of widows of deceased ex-service men who are today In des titute circumstances, and the Legion also is going to see that they are ta--ken care of.
