WHY LEGION POSTS PROGRESS Progress of the posts of the American Legion Is founded on the relations with the community In which they are located, according to findings of the national officers of the organization from a survey of posts showing regular membership increase. This survey was made in 22 states, principally those of agricultural regions, and represented reports from 640 posts In towns with an average population of 11,193 persons. Each of these posts has shown membership Increase over that of the preceding year. Membership growth of these iosts has not been sporadic. It has been steady and sure. Of the 306 posts formed la 1919, an average of 36 members was shown. In 1920 this average for 357 posts had dropped to 28. The next year 394 posts added one more to the average. In 1922, the average for GOO posts Jumped to 58 and thus far the 640 posts show an average of 62 members. Reasons assigned for this growth are primarily due to Interest In civic affairs. A majority of post officers aay that membership has grown because "they have sold the Legion to Such posts have enthe community! countered little opposition In their r progress In Legion activity. Actual accomplishments of the Legion show a multiplicity of movements, and a keen observance by the veterans of the needs of the communities. The questionnaires show that posts have built tourist parks and camping grounds; they have caused city parks to be opened; some build and maintain baseball parks and clubs ; others build community bathing pools; a large number of posts have caused playgrounds to be opened; many have erected public memorials; a few provide free band concerts by MAY ADMIT FORMER ENEMIES Favors Permitting Germans, Austrians and Russians to Enter Veterans Federation. Owsley Alvin Owsley, national commander of the American Legion, created a sensation In veterans circles when he asked allied veterans to dismiss passion and hatred from their hearts'and plan to admit German, Austrhtn and Russian World war fighters into the Interallied Veterans Federation. "Surely there must be some way In which we can speak to the men we fought and make them realize there Is a better way of living among nations than continuing battling one another, Commander Ovvslby declared at the recent convention of the federation in Brussels. "How can we wish to deal with our former enemies If we havent the moral courage to get together In peace? Maybe there has been no change of heart among our former enemies. Ferhaps there never will be unless we are men enough to undertake to carry to them our peace message. France and Belgium positively are entitled to reparations, but hoarding and keeping In our heart ancient prejudices will not bring the peace we earned by our victory. Charles Bertrand, president of the federation, representing the views of France and Belgium, Indicated that he would favor admittance of the men from the enemy countries as soon as they evinced a desire to pay repara tlons.

"getters obtained some valuable Information during the contest. One of the surprising bits of Information was that the reason why many veterans have not Joined the Legion Is because they have never been asked to enter the organization. Legion officials cite this fact as a demonstration of the necessity for a more active canvass of former service men. Both Kass and Kolbe signed np scores of veterans for the Legion In previous membership contests.

The French and Belgiums occupying the strip of territory in which the uprising occurred did not interfere. Tlie one hope of the Stresemann government, ill equipped to meet tlie revolt and harrasseil by trouble in Ravaria and economic difficulties, was that tlie separatists revolt was premature.
