Kenneth Regoulot was installed
as commander of Washington
Guard Post 1, sponsored by the
Long Island Chapter, Sons of the
American Revolution, on Monday
night following the chaptur'a
monthly supper in the Elks club
house. Martin M. Manspergor,
state chairman of the Washing-ton
Guard, was installing officer.
Alfred Bradford Hale was seat-ed
%s vice-commander, and Bar-rle
Tlbbala Smith, as adjutant.
Mr. Mansperger explained the
other ofTlccs had not been filled
because so many of the boys
comprising the post, expected to
be called fnto service or enter
college before their terms would
expire, that it had been decided
to fill the vacancies from among
new members.
Commander Regoulot and Rob-ert
Lenox Doxs6e""recidved^ their
membership pins and cards. The
speakers of the evening were
Lieut. James J. Fitzgerald, intel-ligence
officer and public relations
officer of the headquarters de-tachment,
with headquarters in
Lynbrook, who spoke on "You're
iri the Aimy now,' and C. Oliver
Moore.'laWyur. Freeport resident
and Manhattan attorney, whose
topic was "The Bill of Rights,'
in observance of Bill of Rights
week.
Lieut. Fitzgerald spoke particu-are
expecting, to be called ^ntotRe
service, not only as to prospects
of being able to enter the divi-sion
of their ^choice, but as how
to conduct themselves after they
get into the service. He particu-larly
stressed the necessity nt
boys emphasizing the Reids in
which they have had the greatest
interest and most experience
during their early interviews to
guide Army officials in making
their assignments.
Mr. Moore outlined the st**p
taken In drafting the Constitution
and the difficulty experienced In
having it ratified by the required
number of states, plus New York
and Virginia. He said it was only
by promising to have it amended
that its ratification by narrow
margins by the various states wcs
won. He said the amendments
constituting the BUI of Rights
were introduced in fulfillment nf
these promises and outlined the
various measures.
During the past ten ye&cs, he
added some people had become
alarmed over the attempts of
some groups to arrogate to them-selves
powers that tended to In-fringe
on the Bill of Rights. Mr.
Mrs. Louise Richter, the Boral
chairman, announced plans for
a tea and food. sale to be given
in Spartan Temple on Wednes-day,
March 17 at 1.30 pjn., at
a meeting of Freeport Chapter,
O.E.S.. in the temple Monday
night.

matron, and the Rev. Arthur J.
Pennell, worthy patron, presided.
The worthy matron greeted from
the east Mrs. Emily L. Edgerly,
of New Hampshire, past grand

He said other countries had
been yielding their freedoms fo*'
what they thought would give »
more economic security, and con-tinued:
"But we will still hold to
our Constitution and Bill of
Rights and In these trying times,
build, perfect and perpetuate our
freedom. We are fighting for it

expect to extend instead of les&en
its freedoms so that people who

For Economy Party Ad
On Page Six there is published an advertisement paid for
the Economy Party purporting to explain why THE LEADER
opposing the present administration in the campaign for the vMl
election.
We accepted the advertisement because we believe that in Its
news and advertising columns a paper should be neutral in an
election. ^
The Economy Party would have you believe that we are sup-porting
the Home Rule Party because we did not get the official
designation last April. That Is far from the truth. And further-more
we would have continued to be Independent had we received
the designation. We would not sell our soul for a total of less
than $1,000 which was what the designation would have netted —
