Deltflnld “of New York an: nounced he will take an active inter- est in the order this year, and steps already have been taken toward hrold- ening its scope, including the fostering of peace, good will and friendship among the nations allied with the United States in the World War. Patriotic motives of the order, as set forth in indorsing resolutions at the convention, included the registration and deportation of aliens and strict en- forcement of the immigration laws. Aiming at Communism, the investiga- tion of their activities is supported. It is advocated that the investigation of their activities be pushed and law en- acted to end their destructive methods. School teachers would have to take the oath of allegiance as prescribed by their State officials, if eligible as teach- ers, under another resolution. Along the lines of national defense, the com- plete fulfillment of construction under the London treaty is advocated. The adoption of a universal conscription of manpower and industry in time of emergency is one of the principles i dorsed and advocated, and adequate national defense would include support of the Government military training camps. The order has expanded into a he- reditary organization, allowing sons of officers who are members to become likewise companions in the order. The various activities were ended at a banquet when Comdr. Paul C. Wool- man, national commander of the Vet- erans of Forelgn Wars, and Admiral R. E. Coontz, U. 8.
