| Summary: | This article discusses a campaign begun by the American Legion of Alabama to raise money for a memorial building in Montgomery, which would also function as the state archives: "The proposed fireproof building will hold the state's valuable historical records, now scattered in various buildings--some of them practically fire traps." The building will also be used as a headquarters for organizations such as the American Legion, Spanish American War Veterans, and the United Daughters of the Confederacy. |
