Sioux Falls, S. D., Nov. 10.-The
American Legion has registered a Wig
orous objection to the alleged infringe
ment of their title by the South Da-
kota Liberty Legion at Huron, which
has been running several advertise
ments of a political nature of late in
state papers. The letter from the
American Legion to the South Dakota
Liberty Legion at Huron, signed by M.
l.. Shade, state commander, nj C.. T..
Harris, secretary, follows:
The American Legion of South Da-
kota very vigorously protests against
your infringement of the above title.
Already several errors nave been made
under the belief that the advertise
ments are run by the American Lee
gion.
The American Legion stands for
policies II not for politics, and is. in
no way connected with or responsible
for h acts or advertisements Of
Liberty Legion, and the continued use
of a conflicting name can result in no
good to either organization.
We trust you will see fit to discon-
tinue the use of the name"

Tuesday evening, was the divorced wife
of Bert Wheeler, employed by an auto
company here. The divorce was Sc

fused.

Wheeler had worked as a domestic in
the city and frequently visited her chill
dren at her, former home. The chill
dreR are Russell, "a years old, who is
married and lives in Salem; Floyd, 81
years old, who recently returned
from service in Europe, and has
been working at his brothers
farm in Salem; Gladys, is
years old; Leroy, IL years old. and
Donald, 9 years old, the two latter at
tending public school in this city.
Mrs. Wheeler at the time of the trag-
edy was en- route, with her youngest
child, to Blue Rapids, Kan, where she
and her former husband are interested
in a small farm. After leaving Sioux
Falls Saturday afternoon she visited
with the son at Salem before starting
for Kansas.
