new appreciation of America's
blessings, a strong determination
to preserve these blessings, and
a keen desire to continue to be
helpful to their country and their
fellowmen," Commander Max
Ornstein of Julius Rosenwald
Post 218 of American Legion
stated, explaining the influx of
honorably discharged World War
II veterans into Legion ranks lo-
cally and nationally.

The American Legion nation-
ally has enrolled 750,000 World
War II veterans, raising the 1945
membership to a record high of
more than 2,000,000. More than
150 local World War II veterans
have affiliated with Rosenwald
Post this year.

"The new veterans are - taking
over the Legion. The four top
officers of the Rosenwald Post
are all veterans of this war, and
the Legion with its $100,000,000
in assets, its splendid club houses
and fine programs, traditions and
ideals, is a great heritage for
World War II veterans". Com-
mander Ornstein reports.
Rosenwald Post meets every
second and fourth Wednesday of
the month in Assembly hall of
the Bnai Moshe, 3710 Lawrence.
