z & THE OSHAWA TIMES, Soturdey, Apr 23, 1966 CONVENTION CONCLUDES 'Legion Could Fade Away 'To Giani By FRED HAMILTON + MONTREAL (CP) -- The yal Canadian Legion, like the d soldiers it represents, will ever die. * But it may, in the distant ure, fade away into a multi- lion dollar welfare fund awhose profits wil: be used to rpetuate the principles the gion represents. < That is the apparent consen- 'pus among senior officers of the legion, which concluded its bi- annual national convention Fri- day. Only one item of business dur- ing the week-long convention, a centennial fund, was concerned with what happens to the legion should there come a day when there are no more wars and no surviving veterans or their de- pendents. The Legion still has pressing problems of far more immedi- ate importance to occupy its debates, but the future is begin- ning to dominate its thinking. Outgoing President Fred T. O'Brecht and First Vice-Presi- dent Robert Kohaly, made it obvious in interviews it isn't a basic structure on svhich we Welfare Fund Mr, Kohaly, a 45-year-old law- hope to perpetuate the legion|yer from Estevan, Sask., who and its work." in the normal course of events The fund was established at "i _be ---- ho henge Desenl ominion presiden in ° vie tilatle Hon atnie te agreed the centennial fund is legion membership before the end of 1967, Profits will be used to "perpetuate the memorial to the war dead," It has reached 30 per cent of its target.

WON'T ACCEPT DEMISE "We cannot, and never will, accept the thesis of the legion's demise," said Mr. O'Brecht, a 56-year-old dairy operator from Durham, Ont, "There are men at this convention who, 50 years after the First World War, still have an active interest in the work of the legion. Only 20 years after the Second World War, and with an observable fu- | ture of at least 30 years it would be impossible to consider an| end to the legion." He agreed, however, that senior officers are thinking of the long-range future and al- ready have made a start on a positive program. "Our centennial fund is the ig Harmen Perk Neighborhood Assoc.
