Salvation Army Fight In Court Over Name Use
In a Supreme Court hearing Justice Newburger considered whether an injunction against the American Salvation Army from using its name should be made permanent. The case follows the Brooklyn arrest of General James William Duffin of the American Army and his retreat to Philadelphia. D Cady Herrick, for the Army of the United States, argued the case citing the older organization’s founding, its withdrawal, and its claims that the American branch swindles donors, uses a similar newspaper name, displays large Salvation Army insignia with American in small type, and operates under the Army of the United States banner.
