Mr. Bolles has written, in part, as follows : "I have no hesitancy in expressing my conviction that, as soon as the facts become public, there will be an overwhelming sentiment among Legion members and the public generally for the cancellation of Bergdoll's certificate certifi-cate with the- least posible delay. Personally, Per-sonally, I consideT his retention of the certificate, under present circumstances, circum-stances, would constitute a grave Insult In-sult to the memory of our heroic aviator avi-ator comrades who gave their lives to uphold the bonn of the flag which Bergdoll and his kind would delight in desecrating. ! "I trust national headquarters will be advised shortly Bergdoll's name has been stricken from the rolls of your estimable organization and that one j more substantial black mark has been chalked up against this slacker's name." |
