American Legion Auxiliary By Grace Holmes The auxiliaries are giving vigorous support for the maintenance of Re serve Officers Training corps units in our schools and colleges. We firmly believe that this military training has high educational and character building value as well ss being the keynote of the nation's national de fense system. The campolgn against this military training now being conducted in the name of peaoe, Is actually endanger ing the future peace of the country by weakening our defense against war. Under our democratic system. only a small number of professional officers Is maintained and for the leadership of the large armies needed In war we depend upon Officers Re serve corps which draws Its members from the grsduates or the R. O. T. a. Destroying the R. O. T. C. would de stroy a fundamental feature of our national defense. The B. O. T. C. not only trains 0ung nun to do thslr duty as citi zens in a national emergency, but also constitutes a tine system of physical training, supplies intellectu- tlmulus and mental discipline. Far from giving young men mlll tarlatle minds and investing war with glamour, as Its opponents claim. It gives them a true understanding of war. They learn that war Is me chanical, unromantlo and horrible, something to be avoided aa widely as possible. The trslnlng helps mske them fine useful citizens for peace time service in addition to equipping them to fulriU the duty or every citizen In time or war the defense ol the nstlon.
