QUESTION ASKED MEMBERS
Naval Tost "107, American Legion,
Is making a careful study to asccrtnln
why only a few score out of more than
fiOO paid-up members attend their meet
ings. In nn cdltorlnl entitled "What's tho
Mntter?" in the Naval Post News,
edited by Lester S. lleclit, of the post,
'the question Is put Mjunrrly up to tho
veterans:
"Something must be doni to Improve
the attendance of thp post meetings,"
declares tho editorial. "Manifestly
something is wrong, when from a mem
bership of more than fiOO fully paid
members only a score or ko nttrnd the
meetings. Those who do nttend unques
tionably derive benefit not only from
tho free, enrnest discussions, but from
tho nssocintion nnd comradeship with
other mtn. Meetings twice monthly
mny prove burdensome, but surely every
comrade could, without inconvenience,
nttend one meeting n month.
"Tho Americnn Legion has the op
portunity of becoming n great factor or
good In the life of the city, state and
nation, nnd it behooves us nil to dis
play a genuine interest so that the Le
gion's splendid nims mny'be realized.
Suggestions for the betterment of the
post nnd the improvement of the meet
ings nro welcomed."
This post at one time hnd n paid-up
membership of 2800 vctctans nnd it led
the stntc.
Thnt there is something Inching In
the meetings of the post Is the convic
tion of Vico Commander Simpson. He
is visiting the various posts In an ef
fort to obtain data as to the features
which prove attractive to the Legion so
thnt he may recommend tho lncorporn.
tion of such features in all post meet
ings throughout the city.
Some of the posts In Philadelphia nre
meeting fcemimouthly, others have dis
continued meetings for the summer nnd
there nro some that' meet once a month
as usual.
Tho preparation of nn Interesting
progrnm for the posts is one of the first
problems that should be met by tho new
state administration of tke Legion.
