This week the president of our branch. Frank Barrott, said that the new Canadian flag will be hoisted at Legion Court very shortly. A flag is at pres- ent on order. The Canadian Red Ensign will also continue to be flown, as it was adopted as the official colour of the Legion at the dominion con. vention in May 1964. The dominion convention be- ing the governing body, the supreme authority of the Legion, this resolution remains in effect, until such times as another dominion convention may decide otherwise. I In the current issue of the national magazine of the Royal‘ Canadian Legion, Dominion President Fred O'Brecht, wrote a guest editorial entitled “The Legion And The New Flag”. In it he said that the Legion was one of many organizations that opposed adoption of a new flag by the Pearson government. The failure of the Legion's op- position was due in large measure to the unfortunate fact that the flag issue had become a party political matter. a field into which the Legion as a non- partisan organization could not, and would not enter. The day on which the Canad- ian Red Ensign is hauled down for the last time will be one of poignant sadness for many local Canadians who sincerely love the Ensign. But as loyal and law-abiding Canadians they will accept and respect the new em- blem which their parliament and sovereign have proclaimed as the national flag of Canada. The dominion president’s con- clusion of the article is quoted thus: “At this crucial juncture in the history of our beloved country I commend to members of the Legion, and to all Cana- dians of tolerance and goodwill, the following words, taken from St. Paul's Epistle to the Ephes- ians: Election of officers for Zone] E2 was held at Aurora on Feb-! ruary 3. Most members were not surprised that our quiet and hard-working Comrade George Wood, immediate past president Ind entertainment officer of the ‘Let bitterness and wrath And anger . Be put away from you'. For the sake of Canadian unity I sincerely hope that this ancient but ever-timely exhor- tation will be heeded through- out the length am'x breadth of this dear land." The editor of the "Legionary" has informed readers that the replica of the Canadian Red Ensign which had appeared on the front cover since March. 1963 has been removed by order of the dominion executive coun- cil of the Legion. Also in the best interests of Canadian and Legion unity. the dominion of- ficers have requested the "Legionary" not to publish let- ters to the editor or branch resolutions dealing with the flag.

Sometimes in our midst we find a stranger; oft times he is a quiet man, most times he is a talkative man, sometimes he is a conceal- ing man. At Legion Court last Friday evening there was such a man. When the evening’s music end- ed. and the piano became silent after providing the customary popular music to which most subscribe, a stranger sat down When classical music is play- ed in this manner it usually charms all who hear it, as it did as the evening ended last Friday.
