TELLS OF LEGION’S PROGRESS
National Commander D’Olier Make*
Clear Wonderful Work Accom­
plished in Only One Year.
Addressing
members .>f
a large audience of
the American Legion
and their friends.
In
Indianapolis
recently, Frank­
lin d’Olier. Na­
tional command­
er of the Ameri­
can Legion, gave
the following ex­
planation of the
organization and
purposes of the
legion;
It was only a
little over a year
ego, in France, that all « ’ere asking
what kind of a veterans’ organization
we should have, corresponding to the
G. A. R. and the Confederate Veterans.
W e had all seen the wonderful spirit
of those In the service and we thought
it would be more than unfortunate If
that spirit were allowed to die out.
It, therefore, was decided to form a
great veterans’ organization to which
every person would be eligible who
« ’ns In service, regardless of whether
he were on oflloer or enlisted man, and
whether he served in this country or
France.
The movement was started on the
fifteenth of March, last year, only a
year ngo. Ju a year's time from that
small beginning It has become an or­
ganization with an active organization
In every state of the Union, with some
8,500 posts and a membership well
over a million.
Why Is It that the American Legion
In such a short time has grown so rap­
idly? The icason Is simply this: That
It «-as formed for the purpose of
keeping alive that spirit of service
which we all know about. And that
spirit of service is service to our coun­
try and service to our comrades.
When we were over there, we 'saw
ourselves ihe radical tendencies in
France. We heard from officers com­
ing from England of the radical ten­
dencies in England, and we heard
there was some concern In this coun­
try as to what might happen when
over four million men were demobil­
ized. We made up our minds the first
service we should render to our coun­
try as civilians w’ould be to see to it
that this government, this country
that we «e r e protecting against the
enemy, we would protect agninst the
foes « ’Ithln.
You have heard a great deal about
the stand of the American Legion for
law and order. That stand for law
and order has done more for our coun­
try than most of us realize.
I was talking a short time ago to a
member o f a foreign embassy and he
«•as discussing the American Legion,
and he said:
"Do you realize most of the disor­
der and lawlessness In our country is
caused by ex-service men, whereas in
your country you have your ex-serv­
ice men putting down lawlessness and
disorder?”
I was talking In Washington in the
office of the military Intelligence of
the war department which Is connect­
ed with the attorney general’s office,
and they both told me that the great­
est central factor in curbing the activ­
ities of the reds and the radicals who
would: overturn our government by
force was the Americnn Legion. Those
who would overturn our government
by force know they can only do so by
force and the only great group of cit­
izens who recognize fully the power
of force are the ex-service men «h o
were fighting force with force.
And
when they appreciated the fact that
there were 8,500 posts throughout the
country and not a locality of any size,
but what had an Americnn Legion post,
and that It was a rallying point around
which the ex-service men can gather
in case of lawlessness, and that
through the legion all service men
would stop the attempts of the rad­
icals— that has turned the tide and
made an Improvement since last sum­
mer.
Let me give you an Illustration o f the
soundness of their Judgment. When
the steel strike began In a town In
Ohio, the posts called a meeting and
they offered their sendees to the may­
or. The mayor Immediately swore In
about two hundred, one hundred he
held in reserve and the other hundred
he put patroling the residence section.
The next day the labor union called
a meeting for the purpose of denounc­
ing the legion for strike breaking. The
head of the American Legion post hap­
pened to be a union man and he went
to the meeting and he explained just
exactly what they were doing, that
they were taking no part whatever In
the controversy and were simply inter­
ested in the protection of their homes
and those o f the union workers.
"You are loyal patriotic American
citizens. So are we. We are inter­
ested In the same things, and there­
fore. this meeting which you have
called for the purpose of denouncing
the American Legion when you nnder-
protect your homes from disorders,
for which you will not be responsi­
ble— we are trying to protect your
homes as well as our o «’n.”
As a result of this very frank state­
ment by the post commander the meet­
ing of organized labor approved the
action of the legion, and there «'as no
disorder « ’hatever in that community.
This is a small thing and yet it
shows just what the American Legion
Is trying to do. You need have no
fear about the stand of the American
Legion for law and order. That Is one
point upon which every member of
the American Legion is pledged, anf
is one thing on which we agree unani­
mously, the maintenance of law and
order In this country, and in that
way we hope to serve our country.
In addition we are going tc serve
our comrades through mutual helpful­
ness. We will see that the dependents
of those «-ho made the supreme sacri­
fice are taken care of— that those dis­
abled physically are properly cared for.
Unfortunately, although a year had
elapsed since the signing of the ar­
mistice, congress had not done what
It should have done for the disabled
men. The American Legion called a
meeting in Washington lust December,
and explained what they thought was
fair treatment to the disabled men,
that they might not be objects of
charity of a private character, nnd
legislation which we considered Mon­
day morning was nctunlly passed by
both houses by Saturday afternoon,
because what the American Legion
asked was fair and just, and congress
kne«’ It had the support of the entire
country. And as a result a man can
now live on the compensation he re­
ceives from his government where he
has become physically disabled.
We are now asking congress to do
something for those of our comrades
handicapped financially because of
their service in the army or navy. We
have been criticized for doing this on
the basis that we were putting a price
on our patriotism, due to the fuct that
anyone muklity; that statement does
not appreciate the situation.
I understand it is a historical fact
that George Washington, the father
of our country, received a grant of
several thousand acres of land from
tills country, in recognition of his serv­
ice during «lie revolution. No one has
ever criticized the father of our coun­
try ns having put a price on his pa­
triotism.
Referring to n recent Illustration;
When this country appreciated what
Admiral Dewey had done, by popular
subscription they presented I'm with
a house, and no one ever said that
Admirnl Dewey hnd put a price on his
patriotism.
The ex-service men in what they are
asking for beneficial legislation Is that
this country shall merely help them
overcome the disadvantages Incidental
to their military nnd navjd sendee.
We have suggested a four-foid option­
al plan, covering land settlement,
home uld, vocational training, nnd. for
those who are not able to avail them­
selves of nny one of those three, an
adjustment in their compensation
based on length o f service.
The
American Legion every time It refers
to this legislation has asked congress
to make It ns liberal as Is consistent
with the welfare o f the country, nnd
no one Is In position to take exception
to a statement like that.
The American legion knows that
while we were In France our strength
In the face of the enemy was not the
strength of the two million men In
France, or the strength of the two
million men In the states. But It was
the strength of the hundred million
Americans hack of those four million
of us In service. We were the spear
point: the hundred million patriotic
Americans hack of us were the shaft
and the strength.
The Americnn legion realizes that
Its future usefulness for good In this
country will depend on the support
and approval we get from the hundred
million other Americans, and we know
we could do nothing without youT sup­
port. and you may rest assured In all
our acts we shall see to It that we
keep constantly In mind the one hun­
dred million other Americans who are
Just as patriotic and Just as loyal as
we are

I f you must have your meat every

salts occasionally, says a noted au­
thority who tells us that meat forms
uric acid which almost paralyzes Ihe
kidneys In their efforts to expel it
from the blood. They become slug­
gish and weaken, then you suffer with
a dull misery In the kidney region,
sharp pains In the hack or sick head­
ache. dizziness, your stomach sours,
tongue Is coated and when the weather
Is bad you have rheumatic twinges.
The urine gets cloudy, full of sedi­
ment, the channels often get sore and
Irritated, obliging you to seek relief
two or three times during the night.
To neutralize these irritating adds,
to cleanse the kidneys and flush off
the body’s urinous « ’aste get four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar­
macy here; take a tablespoon fill In a
glass of water before breakfast for a

he could, but It was impossible to

see If he could get help. In n few
minutes he returned smiling and said
Ihe man at the house had advised him
to turn Ihe onr around and hack up.
We all laughed, but were soon turned
around nnd slowly hacking up the hill.
We «e r e about half way up when we
saw another machine coming, and ns
