Even with! several national organizations al- ready in the field, it was mnsldemd‘ certain meny of the lads of this war would want their national associa-| tion Almost sure to be first to oper- ate on a national basis will be the American Veterans of World War II, a temporary organization with temporary officers and wvational headquarters already operating. In organizational meetings, a charter was drawn up and will come before Congress for action under the sponsorship of Rep. Paul Brown (D. Ga.) and Rep. A. B, Kelley (D. Pa). The former already has lost a son in this war and the latter has one now in service. The factor which will probably cause American veterans of this war to grow once it gets its national charter is that it is finding nuclei of his chapters to be going concerns in the 48 states. These are the veterans clubs in the colleges and cities that have been organized by men in advanced training in 27 colleges and universities and by a portion of the more than 1,550,000 veterans who already have been given their discharges. Not long ago, the student vet- erans’ club of George Washington University and the veterans’ club of Washington banded together to give a party for an 80-year-old USO hos- tess here. The event was widely publicized and almost immediately local clubs received letters from clubs in several states suggesting consolidation into a national ganization. When as many of the clubs as possible were contacted, the idea has spread sufficiently to bring representatives of seven here to the national organization meeting Sep- tember 6. Elmo Keel, a master sergeant in the Army, is temporary national commander of the new group.

Organizational plans indicate that the scope of American Veterans of World War II will be very much the same as the American Legion, with state departments and local posts replacing the veterans' clubs and being set up where none now exist. Officers in the club are confident that shortly after the chapter is granted they will be able to muster 50,000 members for the first con- vention, An interesting clause already written into the by-laws is that the American Veterans “will not either 2s an organization or through any member, aid or sponsor any individ- ual or party for political office.” More interesting still is that Am- erican Veterans have elected to in- clude the women of the armed forces in the new organization, ——————— Women of Moose To Mtfl Saturday The regular meeting of the Women of the Moose will be held Saturday evening at 8 o'clock in the lodge rooms in the Seward Building.
