SAMARITAN FREED
IN ANTAGONIZING U. S.
Uewark Judge Praises Kind Acts
of Man Who Gave Lift and Aid
to His Accuser.
B* the Associated Press.
NEWARK N. J., July 18 —Harry Gold
was commended for his kindness and
freed in Federal Court yesterday of a
charge of inciting hostility against the
Government.
He was praised by the court for giving
an automobile ride and a sum of money
to Max Schwartz, soldier from Camp
Dix, who later brought charges against
him.
“I want to sav very frankly.” said
Judge Runyon, “as I regard what ac
tually happened, you did two kind acts.
You gave a man a lift and you gave
him a little money. That may be com
munism. but if it is I think it is very
admirable.
"I hope you can look with the same
kindness on government in general. I
don’t sympathize with communistic
Ideas, but so far as your overt acts are
concerned, they certainly were not
communistic.”

After wandering seven days in the

LEGION RELIGION
DECLARED NEUTRAL
National Commander An

Lutheran Meeting.
J
i By the Associated Press.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.. July 18.—O. L.
Bndenhamer, national commander of
the American Legion, in a statement
! issued here yesterday, said th? Legion
could not, and did not. take a position
for or against any religious faith or any
! political party.
A special meeting in Milwaukee of
the Wisconsin and Missouri Synods of
! the Evangelical Lutheran Church July
j 15 tabled until September 16 a proposal
that would prevent American Legion
members from membership in the
church. The anti-Legionnaires asserted
the Legion is an oath-bound secret and
religious organization which is “anti-
Christ" in the eyes of the church.
Comdr. Bodenhamer declared there is
nothing in Legion history or principles
which would Justify such an attitude.
“The organization, by its preamble and
its program, is pledged to the service of
God and country,” the statement con
tinued. “There is no ceremony of the
Legion which cannot be and is not open
! to the public. • * *
“The only requirement for member -
1 ship in the American Legion is an hon
orable discharge from the service dur
ing the World War, together with citi
zenship. In our organization there will
be found men and women of all politi- ;
cal faiths, of all religious creeds and of
all social thought. The American Le
gion is truly a cross-section of this part
of American citizenship which served
honorably during the time of the World
War."
