Butte World War Veterans plan major Memorial Day parade
The World War Veterans in Butte, affiliated with the Army and Navy association, voted last night to merge under new leadership. Ed Bassette remains commander with John Curran adjutant, and Sam Adelstein will act for the new organization. A joint Memorial Day parade is planned with the United Spanish War Veterans, possibly followed by a smoker at the high school auditorium. No homecoming for discharged soldiers has occurred yet. May 30 is earmarked for that purpose. The former group had about 2,500 members, expected to reach 6,000 by complete demobilization. The parade may feature soldiers who fought in France and who marched to the Rhine.
