An indifferent or cap- w tious declaration that "I should have H nothing to do with it,** doesn't let .A -them out- The qguntry -should get a some benefit out of the granting of a the voting power to women, but it a cannot do it unless they exercise it o' and unless they inform themselves and make themselves able to vote irisely.

Since its organization onejyear ago -the Post has handled * successfully a large number of claims, that were presented to them.

Claims have been taken . up "for men, irrespective of their organization affiliations, whether - they saw foreign service or not, volunteered or selective sen-ice, no distinction is made by the. "Gold Chevron" organization in these ^respects. Desiring to repudiate the false claims- and statements' that are being promulgated by some of our citizens, whom we had previously considered worthy of the name American, we state once again, that thf responsible parties of former Co.
