rades and service to our country.
"Under the head of 'hcrvlco to our

end that the ex-service man, especially
uic iiifcawcu man unit ins dependents
nnd the dependents of those who mndo

Labor Is Patriotic
"The members of orgnnized labor arc
patriotic American citizens and the
members of the American Legion arc
patriotic Araeiicnn citizens who have
proved their patriotism and their loy
alty. Consequently, on the purposes of
tho American Legion both they nnd we
are in nccord. Many of our most loyal
members are mcmbeis of organized la
bor, and it is Our hope that wc may
bo able to coin luce every ox-servico
man who is a member of organized la
bor that.our purposes are the same as
lojal citizens and that every ex-serv-ico
man in organized labor will join
the American Legion. All ex-service
men who arc members of organized la
bor have proved their loyalty and their
patriotism to the country nnd now np
prcciato their responsibilities na citi
