North Carolina American Legion Execs Meet in Raleigh
The North Carolina American Legion executive committee met January 24 in Raleigh with Denny, Lockhart, Parshley and others present. They accepted Battle’s resignation, elected Chambliss to fill the vacancy, and advanced multiple legislative bills for the 1928 session while planning conventions, a home loan fund, and plans to host the national commander March 6–8. The department reported 2,168 paid dues for 1928 and a 1922 membership of 9,772 with renewals outpacing new members.
