Hempstead, March 12.—President E. C. Hinkle of the Hemp.stead Chamber of Commerce ha.s is.sued an an.swer to the American Legion on the monument question, in which he sug'gent.s that the vote taken on the resolution adopted ))y the Legion did not fairly represent the sentiment of the ex-service men of the community. He points out that there were but abf-ut fifty preaent-out of a membership of 250.
Issue is taken with the Legion's resolution on the ques¬ tion of the proper wording of the in.scription and declares ab¬ solutely untrue the statement that the Chamber is seeking self-advertising.
'We feel." he say.s, "thut jier-sonal Reeling and 'peanut' politics should not enter into llie ciucstion." He points out that the I'hamber lias ktid its cards on the table by iilacing the monu¬ ment in full view, so that the people cnn decide lor themselves.
The letter, with a supplementary let- tor, .sent later. Is as follows:
March 10, 1921. Hompstead Tost No. .'iflO, American l^egion.
Hempstead, N. Y.,
Oentlemcn: Wc note, with regret, the resolution passed at the last meeting of your organization, opposing the qiies- tion of tlio erection ot the Memorial Tablet, to be voted upon at the coming election, and al.so note the meagre grounds on which your stand is taken.
"Surely the majority of your noble body liinnot coincide with tliu vote taken, as .otherwise wc feel that you would have luid ii greater representa¬ tion at'lhal meeting, tor wo arc given to understand that out of a member- shiri of over 250 cxservli:e men only approximately 50 did vote, and of this number some are not even residents of this village, especially three, of the load¬ ing objectors in your organization.
"Wo feel that the wording of the tablet is correct and proper, and in line with similar tablets throughout the country, and further that the quibbling ovor the "dotting of an 1 or the crossing of a t' should not .enter into the ques¬ tion to be placed beforo the voters on Tuesday next.
"Every other city, village or hamlet has .some tablet or monument to honor tho.se who served our country, and in memory of those who made the 'Su¬ preme Sacrifice' and after noting that neither the Village Hoard nor your honorable, body made any move to spr cure such a tablet, or monument, wo tho Hempstead Chamber of Coimnerce did lak« up the work and did secure the necessary funds, and therefore .as Trus. tee of that fund believed it appropriate and proper to note on the face of the tablet that the subscriptions had been BCcured through the e(3forts of fhe Hempatead Chamber of Commijrco.
"As regards the placing of the naihe of the Hempstead Chamber of Com¬ merce on the tablet, we claim that tkl.s is net an unusual practice, as thero are numerous precedents where monuments are erected and i^acod in PuhUc Parka in Now York aril other cities, on whieh tha QAme ot the donor acpaars.
