Worlds Fair, st. Louis, Aug. 20
The National Society Of the Army of
the Philippines Is holding it's annual
reunion in the Philippine section. The
Minnesota society is represented by
seven delegates from Camps Merlin
and Carlton, ST. Paul, and one from
Camp Rhodty, saltwater. The men
are quartered in the Nipa barracks,
and will participate in the exercises on
Philippine Day. In the evening, they
will be entertained by G. S. Mitchell
Of the Minnesota commission, who will
serve a dinner for them at the Inside
| Inn. Captain B. S. Kremb, president
of the St. Paul division, has with him
C. w. Albrecht, Clinton S. Coolidge,
Henry Jacobs, Fred Widman, A. Ahl-
berg, H. N. Klein and M. Pankimin
! of the saltwater camp. Regret is ex-
| pressed by the men here at the ap-
parent Indifference of the Minneapo-
| lis society which has sent no repre-
sentatives to this reunion. This Is in
| part due to the fact that several of
| the members came to fair with Com
panies B and l. but their absence at
this time precludes all possibility Of
| any honors coming to the state in the
selection of national officers or rep
resentation on important committees.
No Proxy Representation.
The Minneapolis men sent their
per capita tax to the national society,
and desired the st. Paul men to repre-
sent them by proxy, but the constitu-
ton does not provide for this. The
| matter will be taken up at the reun-
ion and it is possible the Minneapolis
society may be thrown out on ac-
count of mo representation"
