These will be held Sunday morning, so that they will not in- terfere with the fine progtam of enter- tainment arranged by Arthur Sawyer Post No. 28, host organization. The business sessions aré’ important, | however. In them the strong American objectives of The American Legion will be discussed. There is likely to be discussion of problems affecting unemployed vet- erans, disabled former servicemen and other vital matters. depended upon to recommend-sound pub- lic action on any, question confronting it. It is certain, too, there will be no tinge of the kind of gangster action in the Legion recommendations that so strongly flavor the resolutions of the un-American bunds and youth movements fostered by Fascist | The American | and Communist nations. Legion stands for the American way, the democratic way—the ballot-box way— guaranteed under our Constitution. The ‘American Legion stands as this country’s greatest civilian fortification against the attacks of un-American groups. Our public and civic officials are | joining with-the members of Arthur Saw- | yer Post in greeting and entertaining the Legionnaires and members of the Auxiliary | attending the conference. Their efforts in p. this direction accomplish the two-fold pur- | pose of stamping Key West as a hospitable gathering place and of demonstrating our | desire to honor the men and women who are now exerting as powerful a force for good in civilian life as they did when the nation was at war. Hail, The American Legion! Defend- ers of the Right against the Might of less worthy organizations—Welcome to Key West! COLOMBIA AND THE CANAL The republic of Colombia, the clogest South American country te the Panama Canal, has asked the United: States for technical collaboration in military, naval and air force matters. Moreover, the President of the re- public, in his message to Congress, .de- clares that the “security of the Panama canal is indispensable to the welfare of Colombia and all South America” and that | “no one will be permitted to menace the security of the canal from Colombia soil.” These statements reveal a decided im- provement in relations between the United States and Colombia which can; be: more | clearly appreciated by recalling that the isthmus which the canal cuts was Colom- bian territory before Panama achieved its independence in 1903 with the assistance of the United States. NOTHING TO BE GAINED Captain Eddie Rickenbaker, Amer- ican war ace, proposes that the United States dispatch a fleet of big bombers across the Atlantic ocean to “show the world something.” This is a foolish suggestion, in our opinion. There is nothing to-he gained by. sending American hombers across the At- lantic. If our bombers need long distance goer flying, oyer foreign areas, let them journey to South America, where their presence will do us more good.
