VETERANS*
ORGANIZATIONS
Reprinted from On (Editorial in
tho Kiafsport, Tonn., Timoa
Recently some literature was
mailed to newspaper offices re
garding a new veterans’ organi
zation which is being formed.
This is just one of several that
will probably Be promoted, and
each will make a strong bid to
attract a* many servicemen as
possible and make their organi
zation the leading one among the
veterans of World War II. The
sponsors, of these (prgatnifatiiona
believe that the boys coming home
should have their own organi
zation rather than join The
American Legion or other groups
formed after the first World
War.
The fighting men, and the rest
of the men who go into uniform,
are not asking any advice as to
what sort of an organization they
should join; they can settle that
for themselves. But a man in
service ought to ask himself how
he can best serve his own inter
ests now and in the future; he
ought to be sure he is making
his own choice and not getting
hooked up with something a smart
promoter started who may have
some other interest besides unsel
fish devotion to the interest of
the serviceman. We do not mean
to imply that any of the new
group is sudh an organization,
but only that people should rec
ognize that the organization of
servicemen does offer an undoubt
ed opportunity to promoters and
that every organization should
not resent close scrutiny.
From where we sit it does
seem the best bet for the service
men of this war to join The
American Legion. It is true that
the young men who form today’s
armies do not want to be bossed
by the men of World War I. But
with the comparative 6i?e of the
armies of the present time and
twenty-five years ago, the youn
ger members will quickly outnum
ber the older men in The Ameri
can Legion, and if friction ari=
es or differences of opinion, youth
will have the final say.
The older men are not unaware
of this. They are perfectly will
ing to see it happen; they want
the younger men to take over.
At the same time, the older r.ii m
bers have invested a great deal of
money in club houses and other
equipment. The organ zation has
a great amount of physical as
sets that the younger men will
fall heir to, which if they form
a separate organizationt they will
have to duplicate or go without.
A, far as helping themsleves, the
men of today’s army cannot do
anything in a separatq/organiza
tion that they cannot do in The
American Legion, and they will
lose several advantages by going
over by themselves.
But there is another side to it.
I Membership in The American Le
I gion carries with it a prestige
In m* i, two-fold. It is the hall
mark of a man who not only serv
I lm his county in time of war, but
wiho continues to serve it in
time of peace. For The American
Legion has not been solely con
cerned with getting something
for its members. Frankly it has
pushed with all its strength_ fer
veterans’ legislation, for adjust
ed compensation and other ben
efits. But also, and this will be
eternally said to its credit, if has
always been more active in see
ing what The American Legion
could give the public in the way
of service than it has been in
seeing what The American Le
gion could get from the public
in the way of benefits.
The money raised by Legion
posts, by sweat and elbow grease,
and used for the underprivileg
ed, is a vast sum. The swimming
pools, the boys’ clubs, the Chris t
nfas baskelts, fthe Scout troops,
and many other activities which
have come from the work or
Legionnaires are the evidence
that The American Legion is pro-*
bably the greatest service organ
ization in the country today.
Some of these new groups are
very likely fine organizaions, but
for the veterans of World War
II, The American Legion looks
like the best bet.

COOKED A FINE DINNER;
THEN THREW IT TO DOG
Ono lady recently stated that
she used to throw her own din
ner to the' dog most of the time.
It made her sick just to look at
anything to eat. She was swol
len with gas, full of bloat, had
headaches, felt worn out and was
badly constipated. Finally- she
got INNER-AID and says she now
eats everything in sight and di
gests it perfectly. Bowels are reg
ular and normal. She is enjoying
life once more and feels like
“some other woman’’ since tak
ing this New Compound.
INNER-AID contains 12 Great
Herbs; they cleanse bowels, clear
gas from stomach, act on slug
gish liver and kidneys. Miserable
people soon feel different all ov
er. So don’t go on suffering! Get
INNER-AID. Sold by All Drug
Stores here in Gaston County.
