National Commander of the American Legion, Is shorn. In Legion headquarters, Indianapolis, signing his endorsement of the Christ mas Seal sale. The campaign Is launched throughout the country on Thanks giving Day each year by the 2,0M affiliated tuberculosis associations. A cam paign poster stands on the desk. INDIJINAPOUS. Pointing out the "appalling fact" that "one out of every Ave persons who die between the ages of fifteen and forty-five is a victim of tuberculosis,' National Commander Edward A. Hayes of the American Legion issued here today an endo'aement of the nation-wide Christmas Seal sale, in which ha ex pressed the "vital interest" of the Legion In tho work of the tuberculosis associations and assured a continu ance of "full cooperation." Christmas Seals ate the little stamps sold an nually for. a penny each between Thanksgiving and Christmas by the 2,084 ami ia tod tuberculosis associa tions to finance their work. Tho en dorsement follows: "The American Legion Is vitally in terested in the work of the anti tuberculosis societies, and Is of the Arm conviction that the campaign car ried on to prevent the spread of the disease is one of the greatest humani tarian movements ever inaugurated in America. It is really appalling to consider the facts. One out of every five persons who die between the ages of fifteen and forty-five is a victim of tuberculosis. It ia estimated that we now have two million children who are Infected, either active pulmonary tu berculosis or are potential victims re quiring special care and treatment. "In these days of stress and finan cial limitation, there is grave dangei that much of the progress that has been made in the past will be nullified to a certain extent unless the anti tuberculosis efforts are continued with even greater vigor than ever before. These campaigns and the work car ried on under the direction of the so-' cleties have been very largely respon sible for the reduction of the death rate from this disease over sixty per cent during the past twenty-seven years, and the establishment of cer tain machinery for prevention and cure. 'This work must be carried on. ft must not be permitted to lapso for want of means. The American Legion has, throughout the years of its ex istence, given Its full cooperation throughout the country and will con tinue to do so. Its Posts will be active throughout the month of December assisting in the sale of the Christmas Seals, from which funds are derived to finance the anti-tuberculosis asso ciations and societies throughout the United States." He started, his admissions showed, with the theft of a saddle from a Butte Falls barn. He stole five autos from the streets of Medford. Most of the cars were found hidden in the brush near Butte Falls. In several Instances, the autos were stripped of tires and tools.
