Who Commands the Officers' Reserve?

Ward, Harry F. | January 2, 1929 issue

The commander of the local post of the American Legion was explaining his action to the chairman of the International Relations Committee of the Woman's Club and the lecturer from out of town. Obviously he was not particularly pleased with himself or very proud of what he had done. He made it clear that it was not of his own initiative, but under specific instructions by resolution adopted, that he had waited upon the officers of the woman's club in company with the ex-commander. They had made no threats of interference with the lecture, as similar representatives from the same post had two years before, thereby securing the cancellation of that speaker.
