Matthews made it clear that he was not asserting that any of the motion picture stars are communists. but merely aided communist objectives. "No one. I hope,” Matthews said, “is going to claim that any of these persons in particular is a communist. The unfortunate fact, however, remains, that most of them unwittingly served, albeit in this alight way. the purposes of the communist party. “Their names have definite propaganda value which the party is quick to exploit.” Gable, Taylor.

"We are surrounded by radicals who have the American flag, but the only color they see is red. Many of them are enjoying the freedom guaranteed by our constitution while advocating its destruction. “But the American Legion is old fashioned enough to believe In democracy. Every activity of the Legion—-is for the purpose of emphasizing democracy and for the public good,” Conley said. “The American legion is the}' greatest stabilizing force in the United States. As long as the Legion holds the influence it possesses today, steers an even course that is designed to promote American ideals, it will continue to wield a power that will offset the activities of all subversive groups that seek to destroy our form of, government,” Conley declared. Other activities yesterday included the drum and bugle and band contest, business sessions, election of officers for the forty and eight and committee meetings. LaPorte won the drum and bugle contest finals, held last night under the lights in Perry Stadium before 6,000 cheering spectators. Officers elected by the forty and eight were Dean Bechtol.
