Show V J.V. HOWLS U. N. Flag 'Superseding' Old Glorv To most people it was amusing, but to the department of agriculture agricul-ture it was serious. The V.F.W., through its national commander, accused the agriculture agricul-ture department of "an apparent effort to flood the country with United Nations flags" to take the place of Old Glory over the nation's achools. i. The commander said the agricul- ture extension service was supplying supply-ing U.N. flag-pattern kits to 4-H and women's farm clubs and urging urg-ing members to become "modern Betsy Rosses" by making such flags at home. Said an agriculture department spokesman, "The proposal is to display dis-play U.N. flag3 parallel to the American flag, just as it is done by General MacArthur." |
