The United States is facing a
world crisis of changed ideals
and has been impregnated by
subversive forces, Niel R. Allen,
Grants Pass attorney and com
mander of the Oregon state de
partment of the American Le
gion, told the annual "Past
Commanders" meeting of Med
ford post in the armory last
night. Mr. Allen called for a
patriotic effort in regeneration.
The state commander saw no
Justification for the entry of
this country into the European
war short of self-preservation.
Nevertheless he expressed the
personal belief the United
States would go into the war
if a knock-out blow by the
Germans seemed imminent.
'Mass psychology of the
American people will demand
it," Allen asserted.
Calm Is Urged
The American Legion, with a
million members who know
from actual experience what a
world war is, should at this
time of hysteria, counsel calm
ness and clear thinking as the
most valuable aid to the gov
ernment, Allen declared. Loose
talk, he said, should be curbed.
Meantime this country should
prepare to defend herself, for
while Americans are against
war, they want freedom and
democratic government more
than peace, Allen said. He
pointed out the American Leg
ion has always stood for ade
quate preparedness and for 20
years has been fighting for uni
versal conscription in case of
war. the kind of policy Eng
land has now adopted. Under
the Legion's plan, he empha'
sized, capital and industry as
well as men would be con
scripted and there would be no
financial profit for anyone.
Post Complimented
Allen complimented the Med
ford post on its patriotic acti
vities, especially its youth pro
gram.
'The thought of the old
world is being dictated: our
way, the American way of free
dom, must be stressed in the
right training for our young,"
the state commander stated
"The American Legion youth
program is therefore of the ut
most importance."
Gilbert Stuart, world war
veteran and president and sec
