WILMETTE LIFE, FRIDAY, MARCH 28, 1924 LEGION CALLSMASS MEETING I North Shore Poata Sponsor Meeting to Counteract "Youth Movement" McCHESNEY TO SPEAK Session to Be Held in Evanston Sunday The Evanston Post of the American Legion. in cooperation with Wilmette and Winnetka Posts of the great exservice men's orP'ani?atiorr, l-as sum moned a patriotic mass meeting to he held in Pa!ten . gymnasium, Northwestern umverstty campus, Sund.·ly afternoon, March 30, as a formal protest. and counteracting influence agamst the recent meetinR" of a pacifist group in the First Methodist Episcopal church of Evanston at which. it was said, the assemblage cast slurs at the American flag. "War to ~ finish on disloyalty," was declared thts week to be the primary task of the Legion at this time when what is termed as radical "mind poison" is being spread among the youth of t_he nation. Last Sunday's demonstration at Evanston, legion !ead~rs assert r_ep~t>~ents merely an mkhng of what mstdtous practices are being employed to soread pacifist propaganda in univer .. ities and amonJ! the young people in the churches of the country. Leaden to Speak rtg. Gen : McChesney commented on Sunday ntght's incident as follows: . "The impression was given in some mstances that the little "38" who voted they would refuse to serve their coun~ry in time of war regardless of the tssues were representative. It is .not true. Northwestern welcomes to :ts doors students of all shades of opin1 0~ and w:thin reasonable bounds pcrmtts them to express themselves. "It must do so as a great university. But those who hold anti-social views ~ust accept the social onus, th'e ostractsm that goes with it. The rank and file of Northwestern has as hearty a con_tempt for the slacker, deserter. or tr~ttor as any intelligent and healthy mmded group. The conscientious pacifist during the war was willing to be punished for his conviction. Even he had nothing but contempt for the slacker who ran away. Northwestern stu?ents and alumni have always done thetr duty by our country and will continue to do so, never fear." Ralph Wessel in his Wilmt'tte Legion column in this issue of WILMETTE LIFE also comments at length concerning the Altinson affair. · M inute Men A c t Spea~ing as .a representativ~. oi the ~l~mnt association of the university, "RESO~VEI>t 4hat we condemn and censure, any g,roup or individual who encourag~ such treasonable doctrines, by permitting their public presentation or the public appearance of any one of their notorious advocates, such as Brent Dow Allinson."
