(Special Staff Correspondence) RIALTO, Jan. 6. Legionnaires here last night joined the county-wide move to retain the county service officer on the grounds that his removal, urged as an economy measure, is actually an anti-economy gesture. The resolution as unanimously passed by the post reads in part: "We believe it to be false economy to abolish this office because of the record of work accomplished In the past, because In the fiscal year ending June 30, 1932, the office secured compensation for 14 veterans who had been previously been taken care of by the county In the amount of $11,915.93 and secured for them monthly pay of $500. 5 thus relieving the county of the burden of supporting 14 families, and because during the same year the office secured a total compensation for veterans In San Bernardino county in the amount of $154,400.36 which money was used and spent In the county for the support of veterans and their families who might otherwise have been a burden on the county." The legionnaires further declared in their resolution that they are unalterably opposed to the abolishment of the county service officer and are urging the county lnterpost council to take such steps as may seem advisable to prevent the curtailment or elimination of the position.
