Mr. Bodenhamer asserted that "capital should share alike with the men of the nation who are compelled to give their blood in time of war.. Every man and every national resource should alike be drafted into the service in time of war, and without deliberate planning in time of peace It cannot be accomplished.

"With proper organization now and the formulation of a plan by which the entire resources efthe nation, both physical and material, could be united when the peed arose, a long, bloody conflict such as took the lives of millions of men from 1914 to 1930 could thus be avoided.

Commander McNutt in his message urged the Legion to cooperate in the passage of the hospital construction bill, which was shelved at the last session.
