It was smothered in a squeeze play between election-con- scious poiticians and Communist pressure groups, and never even came up for a vote.” The Legion was one of the first American organ- izations with nation-wide membership and influence to recognize and oppose the evil purposes of Com- munism in the United States—and Commander O'Neil THE A\MERK‘ !\' LEGION Unapplied Psychology (Cincinnati Enquirer) A nationwide poll taken by motorcar dealers and ham. ! manufacturers reveals that we all give an inkling of - George Gilpatrick, Steeneth Lar-‘ our character in the color of automobile we choose. son, Ralph Sheppard, L.
