Tl SUNDAY BSTAR. WASHINGTO 'AUGUST 928, 1927—PART 1 —-——— ORDERS T0 LEGION 'LIMIT UNIFORM USE s Big Parade and Ceremonies ¢ In Cemeteries Are Only Exceptions to Ban. # ‘ “I ’d hate {o think Of shopping For the first time in the history of it Pl - . ' without this refreshing treat” has been placed on the wearing of the uniform at a national convention of this Veteran organization. The re- striction covers the ninth annual na- tional convention, to be held in Paris next month. On two occasions only, will the uni- form of the United States be permit- ted to be worn. One i8 on Monday, September 19, in the annual parade, and the other at céremonies in French cemeteries. As the result of this re- striction, many Legionnaires plan to leave their uniforms at home. Information on this point has been received from the headquarters of the | American Legion. | In addition to the general restric- tion, the War Department has issued an order defining just what uniforms and what insignia shall be worn while | overseas next month. Under the pro- visions of the order of the War De- partment, “at these ceremonies, and in the pa e, the wartime uniforms will be we with the insignia of rank held at the time of such service." The order provides further that “members of ‘the Regular Army and of the officers’ Reserve Corps and En- listed Reserve Corps are authorized to wear the wartime uniform with in- signi k held at the time of such ept under these condi- , “the wearing of the uni- | members of the Regular Army and of the Officers’ Reserve Corps and Enlisted Reserve Corps at- | tending the convention is prohibited,” | concludes the War Department order. No Navy Orders. | While no orders have been received | with reference to the Navy, officers | of the Regular Navy and officers of | the United States Naval Reserve pre- “ sume that it refers to this branch of the service as well. Many Legionnaires feel that, rather than lug along their uniform equip- ment over 7.000 miles. for the few hours of the parade, they prefer to | leave it at home and utilize the pack- | ing space in some other manner. | The laws in many countries regard- | ing the wearing of uniforms of for- | eign nations are said to be strict, and national headquarters of the American | Legion désires that all Legionnaires be advised as to the occasions on which | the American uniform may be worn. Another restriction has been placed by the national organization in con: nection with the big parade. The wearing of the Forty and Eight cap or the Forty and Eight smock will, for the first time, not be permitted in this parade, as these are to be used only in the official Forty and Eight ceremonies. Persons who find it im- possiblé or undesirable to wear their | wartime uniforms will be permitted | to march in civilian clothes. Legion caps or Legion uniforms will be per- mitted. Each department is urged to have : H . its own department colors, and as Drink Peoples Double Rich % many of the colors of its posts, in the ilks— parade, s possible.
