NOTED EDITOR RAPS LEGION'S CASH DEMANDS Leach Urges Voters Oust Congressmen ‘Betraying’ Public Interest. f'milnt Press NEW YORK. Sept 18 —Dr Henry Goddard Leach, noted editor o l the Forum, today called upon the electoral* "to put an end once and lor all to further plundering of the public treasury by veteran* and in the name of patriotism" by voting against senators and congressmen ' who betrayed you and your interest*.” He denounced the presumptive, gouging, grasping attitude of the American Legion and other so-called veterans’ organizations.** American citizens, he declared, "have apparently remained impassive and IndifTerent while the efficiently organized veterans’ lobby was intim.datmg and cajoling senators and congressmen with promises of votes. “ "And I predict," Mr. Leach added, “that drunk with success and power the veterans’ lobby will promote additional unjust privileges before the next congress.” He addressed a series of questions to Edward L Hayes, national commander of the Legion, demanding public replies. Among them were: "Does not the American Legion Magazine publicly advertise that legionnaires earn double the average income. 94 per cent, are insured for an average of $12,050 and 84 per cent own automobiles? "Was not the war insurance act introduced by Newton D. Baker intended to eliminate just such demands as the legion is making today? “Was not the adjusted service compensation act introduced and given Legion support undpr the thesis that it would eliminate service pensions? “Do you believe that at S3O a month the genuine war widows receive ample compensation? “Did not the icgion say in 1922 that if the bonus was granted that the, would not ask for a pegsion? ' Why did you recently say that you wished to remove from your organization all the doubting Thomases and that there was no room for men who could not think in agreement with the definite program of the national organization?" Copies of Mr. Leach's speech, which was broadcast, were sent to all senators and congressmen. league Studies Arms Ban H'l ! ># Pr,ss GENEVA.
