They have, of course, 8 perfect right to do this--the Constitution was drawn to defend the liberties of no good lightness Grandma's not no gay will Union Separate sold sell on ped is system, ple of all political faiths, all races.

Every kind of totalitarian state is built on the same set of principles. Every of them says, in effect, that the state and that the individual is supreme nothing.

There can be no such thing as personal liberty--the right to do, think and speak what one pleases. They are concerned with men and women only in the massmillions of slaves who may be used ruthlessly to advance the purposes of the state. In this country, the totalitarian forces are small in number. But they extremely well organized, and are they are adept at deception and deceit. They are skilled at waving the flag, and at demanding in the name democracy measures which would destroy democracy.

THE UNION weaken free enterprise, which would increase industrial strife, and which would pit class against class. The from within technique has been boring detailed and perfected by the advoof the super-state from Marx cates on down. It is an essential prelude to revolution and internal chaos which "strong man" to seize permits a power. A nation can save itself from ultimate dictatorship in only one wayby aggressively fighting every movement which would in any way circumscribe economic and social freedom.

There can be no such thing as a limited freedom. We will have all cr none. The forces of totalitarianism count heavily upon American blindand tolerance as an aid to their ness work. The American people must them mistaken. prove LEGION PROCLAIMS DECEMBER 7TH GOOD NEIGHBOR DAY The American Legion is proclaiming.

25, 1944. a short while since you went Just away To fight a good fight, and win the peace that reigns today. No one knew as you answered your country's call, That the Master would beckon you home. Stilling your voice, and taking your smile, leaving us sad and alone. You were so dear and precious to us, It tore our hearts to see you go.

But the Master knew best and called you home, Leaving us sorrow and grief to know. And though your face no more 'we see, Our memory of you will never grow weak, For just beyond the stars above we seem to hear you laugh and speak. Someday the dawn will break and the shadows all flee away. Once again our hearts will sing and rejoice in the glad new day. Till then we'll know you did your best, Your mission on earth was done, But when the Lord called on your life, It brought the setting to our sun.
