He took this unqualified stand last night in his first public statement since his election as head of the Legion in Maryland at the closing session of the organization’s convention in Frostburg, l‘rs: Saturday. Economic Reasons. Mr. Archer explained that he was | | against “promiscuous spending” in be- | half of ex-soldiers because of the pres- ent economic condition of the Nation. | He emphasized, however, that the wounded and disabled must .be aided | by public funds. On _the question of prohibition, brought to the attention of the conven- tion, he sajd he was in sympathy with the action of the delegates in tabling & resolution introduced to bring about & discussion of light wines and beer. Mr. Archer defined prohibition as & “political problem,” and as such was outside the consideration of the Legion. | Charge Is Denied. | Speaking egain of politics as it af-| fects the Legion, he denied the charge recently made by the Carnegie Foun- | | dation that the key men of the Legion | throughout the United States | “political colonels” and that the or- | | ganization itself is being exploited po- | | Itically. | | The commander declared political | maneuvering is inevitable within such | a large organization as the American | Legion, but asserted that the Legion's | purposes were non-political | Mr. Archer is special assistant attor- At 10% to Just Below D: | He thoroughfare.

Lifebuoy LHEALTH SOAP stops body WHAT things do you hold dearest? If you're like most of us they run somewhat in this order: Family, Health, Happiness, Appearance, Youth. But have you ever stopped to think how easily they are lost? Remember the old proverb. For want of a nail the shoe was lost. For want of a shoe the horse was lost. For want of a horse the rider was lost. Frequently, battles, even destinies of nations, de- pend on little things. ‘We see the big results of small neglects all around us. Even in our own homes. A child denied companionship. A wife too tired to be pleasant . : : Too thought- less of her own vitality—her youthful charm. A husband vexed by late suppers, by makeshift breakfasts : ; : ashamed of home-washed shirts. Hundreds of other little domestic dan- gers start with washday in the home. But they don't stop there. They go on and on, gathering momentum, making life un- pleasant. Butwe think we’re saving money. And we shink it's appreciated. That’s the cream of the jest! More likely our children—and our husbands too—are secretly ashamed of their “washwomen wives and mothers.” Plain talk, yes, but it’s a plain case. The solution is not only easy—but economical. Pick a good laundry. Pick one that gives fast, economical service. One that saves you money by saving your clothes. We do these things for thou- sands of Washington women every day, here at Manhattan. And they con- sider their money well spent. They wouldn’t go back to home washing because they know that many things besides orig- inal cost are important. Many of them have seen how Manhattan’s soft net bags keep out the wear that wears out clothes. How each piece is washed in suds of pure palm oil soap. Rinsed with soft, filtered water. Returned in three short days. Manhattan services are worked out to fit every need—every purse. Hundreds of families send the flat work if nothing more. Some women use a service like Homestic and touch up the wearing ap- parel at home. Others use our complete ready-to-wear services. But the service is easily fitted to your needs: The main thing is to get washday out of the home! After all, this is an age of specializa- tion. We buy bread from bakers, milk from milkmen : s 3 why not laundering from laundries? It's the only way to escape four solid years of washday work and worry. (Fig- ure it up, a day a week, between the ages 20 to 45). If you agree that it's worth a trial, phone Decatur 1120: Just leave your ad- dress and we'll send a Manhattan repre- sentative to explain our money-saving services to you: But don’t put it off any longer. Health and Happiness are too precious.
