CONTRIBUTED Funds for Decorations e City of New Britain 5 May 17, 1921 Editor New Britain Herald: Would you please give me space in vour valued paper for a few serious thoughts? That day of all days, for the soldier | heroes is about'to arrive, Decoration Day, a day when the people of the nation are reminded ‘that for the country’s safeguard and honor, there i lies thoysands of heroes both at home land in foreign lands who gave their lives that our glorious nation shall not perish from the earth. Heroes from the time of the rebel- lion to the past world war. Here in our city of New Britain the dead shall be remembered. Through the foresight of our city fathers a court of honor was erected on the entrance to Walnut Hill Park. When this court of honor was first erected it was a pleasing sight to be- hold and a worthy memorial to our hero dead, But. today, how does it ‘Inok sad, lonley and neglected, monu- ments are in all positions, name plates effaced, and the storms and winds of a year has reduced it almost to ruins. Was it only a temporary spasm of { patriotism that prompted its erection, or was it erected in a sober sense of patriotism, why has it been neglected ? Although I shrink from saving it, I {must in all honor to my dead buddies say that if it is not soon painted and repaired it on the hill. In our city we have several organi- zations of ex-service men, among these i an o nization called the Veterans for Foreign Wars of uw United States. In order to join the veterans a mm. dy has to prove that he had been in actual servic the other side in time of war. ost of veterans in our city we have ) paid up mem- bers and fully i0 per cent have been wounded in action. Do you not believe of honor is dear to them? Do you not believe that they will do all in their power to see that the court of honor should be suitably decorated on Decoration Day, Our funds are too low to enable us to buy wreaths for all the dead heroes in New Britain, so we decided to raise money by u canvas through the different places of business New Britain.

What has the American Legion through its officers done. Was it not for the V. F. W. who with a true buddy’s feeling undertook and gave eur returned heroes a true military funeral. Did the Legion give us their co-operation? So.we ask the public of New Brit- ain—through courtesy of the Herald —are we not entitled to some recogni- tion ? We who are that the court we first went to for their permission. Did They said that the stro who were | overseas and have been wounded in action, are we not entitled to somo consideration. Why does the Chamber of Commerce refuse to recognize us? We are in New Britain and while we are here we will see to it that our buddies are vemembered and not | nerlected even thoush the Chamber of {Commerce and Legion are refusing | co-operation. !
