BIG WEST SHORE POST PLAN LAGS More Desirable to Have Many Small Posts, Former Serv ice Man Declares With more opposition to the or ganization of a West Shore Post of the American Legion, advocates of a joint Post are not encouraged over the present outlook. A previous service man from the West Shore, interviewed on the subject, to-day said: "The organization of a West Shore Post of the American Legion brings up a question of vital inter est to the service men of the West Shore. The same question must face the men of many other such communities. "Last June when the American Legion installed a Post at Camp Hill there was a question in the minds of a number of the men present at the preliminary meetings whether an effort should not be made to join with other nearby towns before or ganizing a Post which would almost necessarily be restricted to one town. A thorough discussion de veloped the general opinion that it was best to confine the activities of that post of Camp Hill Borough and that part of East Pennsboro town ship which was within a short dis tance of Camp Hill. "At the first meetings of the Na tional American Legion at St. Louis this same question came up and it was then advised that the effort be made to organize a great number of small Posts rather than a few large ones. The opinion at that meeting was that with a small post confined to restricted area individual mem bers would take more interest in the than where the membership is large. "It is certainly true that a post of fifty men will not make the dis play in a parade nor can it afford to maintain elaborate club rooms which will be possible with a large membership. But the good to be derived from the American Legion must, it seems to me, qome from the active participation of all the members in its affairs. The active members will mould the policies Of the Legion and disseminate the principles for which the American Legion stands. "The question is: will more men take an active part in the affairs of the American Legion if there are posts at New Cumberland, Lemoyne, West Fairview, Enola, Camp Hill. Wormleysburg, than If there is but one post on the West Shore? "I understand that posts have been established at New Cumber land and Camp Hill. Would it not be well to incourage the establish ment of posts at the other West Shore towns? And if they do not thrive then it should be an easy matter to combine them as one post. "The experience of a number of West Shore community projects con firms the opinion of the National convention at St. Louis. One post would be larger than any one of six; but would it be larger than the aggregate membership of six? "There are many reasons for en couraging the establishment of a West Shore Post, but T believe the one reason against such a project Is vital."
