COAST OUSTER OF ALIENS URGED

Two more American Legion posts in the state have adopted resolutions urging the removal of enemy aliens from coast points to concentration camps or other "effective supervision," according to the Legion's department offices in Seattle.

Spokane Post No. 9, of which Paul P. Brown is commander, has adopted a resolution specifically recommending the transfer of all Japanese aliens. Hyder Harlow Post No. 119, in Elma, headed by Ernest Monjay, urges the removal of all enemy aliens.

Both resolutions emphasized dangers from sabotage or "fifth-column" activities.
