J. Chamberlln and De partment President Cecelia Uunn. Commander :hamberlln, In the main address, gave the program of the American Legion for the coming year. "Many citizens have been misled re garding the American Legion stand on the adjusted service certificates," he said, "but the following resolu tion was passed at the national con vention at Miami, Fla.: "Whereas, the immediate cash pay ment of the adjusted service certifi cates will Increase tremendously the purchasing power of millions of the consuming public, distributed uni formly throughout the nation; snd will provide fr-lief for the holders thereof who are in dire need and dis tress because of the present unfor tunate economic conditions; and will lighten Immeasurably the burden which cities, counties and states are now required to carry for relief; and "Whereas, the payment of said cer tificates will not create any additional debt, but will discharge and retire an acknowledged contract obligation of the government; now therefore, be It "Resolved, that since the govern ment of the United States is now definitely committed to the policy of spending additional sums of money for the purpose of hastening recov ery from the present economic crisis. the American Legion recommends the Immediate cash puyment at lace val ue of the adjusted service certlfl cates, with cancellation of Interest accrued and refund of Interest paid, as a most effective means to that end." Chamberlln stressed the fact that "membership la what wo should have now," and urged all posts to get in all old members Immediately and show the national officers that Ore gon is back of them 100 per cent. Another resolution, declared by Chamberlln to be of Importance, is the following: "Whereas, the American Legion has heretofore opposed recognition of Un ion 'Of Socialist Soviet Republic for the reason It was feared such recog nition would be inimical to the best interests of this country; and "Whereas, prior to recognition of said government by the United States, promises were duly and solemnly made by the Soviet government that communist propaganda and activities emanating from Russia, directly or indirectly, would forthwith cease; and " V'hereas. such activities have not ; ceased but have, on the contrary greatly increased, as evidenced by In-j d'istrUl unrest and civil commotion1 within this country, therefore, be It "Resolved, that wa urge the Imme diate reclMlon of recognition of the U. S. S. R. by the United States of America." Chamberlln quoted the following as Lenin's definition of communism, taken from the "complete works" of the dead Soviet leader, Vol. XVIII. pass 361; "The dictatorship of the proletariat Is nothing else than power based upon force and limited by nothing by no kind of law and by absolutely no rule."
