that it is Its duty to Bee that these
children are given . an 'equal chance

' laws' on the statute books of our gov

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
