Commander Boney urges all Vet
erans to join the American Legion
and cites the following reasons for
doing so:
REASON FOR JOINING THE
AMERICAN LEGION
1. Honorable Service. The button
of The American lotion testifies to
your honorable service during Wor
ld War I. World War II or the Kor
ean conflict.
2. Rehabilitation. Every member
helps toward providing adequate
care and protection for the disabled
of World Wars I and II and the
Korean conflict and their depen
dents. 3. Child Welfare. Every member
helps to carry out the child welface
program through which the organi
zation stands in place of the father
to thousands of needy orphans.
4. Americanism. By being a mem
ber, the veteran gives full support
ta the principles of Americanism
through which. unAjqoerican influe
nces are counteracted. He. supports
patriotic education and helps make
all communities better places in
which to live.
5. National Security. Every mem
ber will help the organization In
attaining its goal for an adequate
national defense to insure the na
tion against attack.
6. Insurance Protection. Paid up
American Legion member may qua
lify for a low cost group life insur
ance plan.
7. Legislation. While practically
every piece of legislation beneficial
to veterans of World Wars I and II
and the Korean conflict has had
full support of The Ameciran Legion
a greater membership will insure
the succes of future legislative pro
grams. 8. Junior Education. Through
membership the veterans supports
the teaching of sportsmanship and
high Ideals to the youth through act
ivities such as Junior Baseball.
Boys State and Boys Nation, Ora
torical Contests, Boy Scouts and the
School Medal Award.
9. Comradeship. Veterans enroll
ing in The American Legion join a
real outfit of he-men who served
together in time of war. Friendships
made in war service endure. Fri
endships made in the The American
Legion likewise endure.
10. Voice Heard. The voice of the
single veteran is not heard, but the
voice of millions of veterans in The
'American Legion is heard and heeded.
