West Guard of Honor and Paul Me- sa, Jr. First Vice Commander, pre- sented the flag of our country to the local Salvation Army Post, Sun- day October 10, in honor of the dedication of the new headquarters on Petronia St. s * Civil Defense: Some weeks ago, Charles Curry, Civil Defense Committeeman of Monroe County, came out during a meeting of Arthur Sawyer Post and gave us a sincere talk to the Legionnaires. We of Arthur Sawyer Post are very much interested in Civil De- fense, but I'm a little afraid that we stand almost alone among the civic organizations who have ac- tually done anything about it. I personally have been in attend- ance at a couple of other civic clubs while Curry made his talk. It rated little more than a round of applause #nd then was forgotten about. One of our members, Cliff Sc macher, made a special trip < Miami to see and study what Har- vey Seeds Post American Legion jhas to do with Dade County Civil Defense. They have taken over a definite part of the program, and stand ready to put it into action at any time. After hearing Cliff's talk, the Arthur Sawyer Legion- naires were convinced that our post could play a definite part in the Monroe County Civil Defense pro- gram. Once before, Monroe County talk- ed Civil Defense anda few big shots shouted and raved and then forgot it. One’ civic organization alone can not carry this program through. It must be the coopera- tion of all of them. Arthur Sawyer Post stands ready to do its share. Come on, you Civil Defense Com- mittee, get on the ball and past the shouting stage. xk Monroe Co.
