LEGION ORIGIN, AIMS LISTED IN BRIEF HISTORY

New Publication Tells of Organization Meeting in Paris in 1919.

Origin, objectives and accomplish-

ments are outlined in “A Brief American Legion History,” just released by Legion headquarters here. "The revised history outlines the founding of the Legion which resulted from a meeting at Paris in 1919. The qrganization began actively to form its ranks at the “great caucus held in the Cirque de Paris, Paris, France, with approximately 1000 officers and enlisted men -representative of the A. E.

The township rate was set at $199 on each $100 of assessed valuation, but in figuring the individual tax bills, the Auditor’s office used the German Township rate, which is only $1.70. The error wasn’t discovered until- some of the Harrison Township taxpayers had paid their tax bills and it was too late to make a correction. The 29-cent difference was made up by cutting the poor relief rate that much. Township officials said it may be possible to handle poor relief on that rate, but if it is not possible to do so, the difference will be made up in next year’s levy.
