HUSSMAN LETTER | REPLY IS WRITTEN BY DR.| WILLIAM MacNEILL FOR | GRANGEVILLE POST Grangville post No. 37, Ame-} rican legion, through Dr. Wil-| liam MaeNeill, chairman of «| special committee appointed for the purpose, has written an open | letter to William B. Hussman, | of Cottonwood, answering cyvi- | ticisms by Mr. Hussman of Grangeville post. Dr. MacNeil, who wrote the reply to Mr. Hussman, is a vet- eran of the battlefields of} France. He was in the two great drives of the war, parti- | cipating in the battles of the Argonne and the Meuse. Letter to Hussman. Mr. W. B. Hussman, Cottonwood, Idaho Sir: Your letter published in the Cottonwood Chronicle was read by us with some surprise at the trend of thought you expressed. The purpose of the legion and the principles for which we stand are well known to all and need no repetition. It seems needless to say that if we, as legions, are to remain faithful to our country and to legion principles, we must de-| nounce any element that is not in perfect harmony with demo-| cracy and civilization. Not only | must the legion take this atti-| tute, but so must all patriotic | people of our country, that “a! government of the people, by the} people and for the people” might survive. And it would seem that, if this government of ours is to survive, at this time when there are so many elements, ! such as the I. W. W., Non-par- tisans and bolshivik at work to overthow it, that the patriotic) and loyal Americans must stand | together as a nation and eradi-| cate them from our midst. | Mr. Hussman, if you are in ac-| cord with the foregoing, then why do you take exception to the action of Grangeville post in| their condemnation of this ele- ment? You critize the post for) their actions, taken in reference} to the I. W. W. prosecutions, as | well as the denouncing of the’ Non-partisans. That criticism: stones. to us, is vidence to show which | slipping by unnoticed, while the other radicals rave and rage on.
