Fidac Seal to Be on All Membership Cards
Each 1926 membership card of the American Legion will have printed opposite the American Legion emblem the seal of Fidac, inter-allied federation of World war veterans, according to announcement made by James F. Barton, national adjutant.
"In this manner the three-quarter-million members in the American Legion will be members of Fidac in fact as in name," said Mr. Barton. "Wherever a Legionnaire may be, if he has his Legion card with him, he will be accorded the courtesies and privileges extended to members of Fidac."
Placing of the seal on the cards follows out the resolutions of the international congress of Fidac suggesting that all member associations have the Fidac seal on their membership cards.
