STATE RIGHTS IN THE LEGION


The status of the negro veteran
before the American Legion is a vital
issue which is well considered edi-
torially by the Stars and Stripes as
follows:
Because the American Legion has
grown more rapidly than its machin-
cry has grown, it has become neces-
sary for some of the state organiza-
tons to take definite actions on vital
questions without waiting for the ma.
tional convention or consulting the
temporary executive committee. This
is notably true in the Southern
states, where the negro question in
jected itself into the legion organiza-
ton almost from the first.
LAS a result at least two states
have arbitrarily decided not to admit
the black ex-soldier to legion men,
bership. They had no right to do
this under the Logon charter. but
they had very good cause for it new
ertheless, and anyone who knows the
South knows that the South is going
to handle the race question for itself
in it's own way.
IF the legion at Minneapolis or
anywhere else. should presume to
dictate TO its southern membership
how it's southern problems are TO be
handled. it will accomplish nothing
except possibly ALLEVIATE the South
from its present enthusiastic support
of the legion. Any step toward in
tolerance by those in any section who
have not faced the problem of anoth-
err section, can lend no aid to the
present effort of molding a great ma
tional body. And the recent expert
ences of Chicago, Washington and
other cities indicate that meddling
with racial problems at this time by
any but the most fearless, honest and
experienced hands would be not i'm
prudent but unpatriotic TO a degree
Such enemies of the nation as
have been caught redhanded deliver,
ing propaganda to the colored pOpu'
llation Of the South must find no COM
fort through any dissensions i'm a
body so utterly American as the le-
gion. The Southern states will ask
nothing of the national convention
but the right they have exercised for
many years, of dealing with their
own problems.
They should be conceded that
right without question"

A Unique Record.

Home testimony for Doan's Kidney
Pills, published in every locality, is of
itself convincing evidence of merit.
Confirmed testimony forms still strong
er evidence. Years ago, citizen of
Edgerton gratefully acknowledged the
benefit derived from Doan's Kidney
Pills. The statement is now confirm
ed-the proof more convincing. Cases
of this kind are plentiful in the work
of Doan's Kidney Pills-the record is
unique.
J. M. Ogden, E. Fulton St., Edger-
ton, says: '.For more than a year |
was annoyed by pains in the small of
my back. The attacks came on sud-
denly, lasting for several hours and
then disappeared, only to return again
in a few weeks. I sometimes had
headaches and the kidney secretions
were unnatural. A few boxes of
Doan's Kidney Pills drove every symp-
tom of kidney complaint from my sys-
tenn and l am now enjoying much bet
ter health"
HASN'T SUFFERED SINCE.
More than three years later Mr.. Og-
den said: 81 haven't had occasion to
use any kidney medicine since took
Doan's Kidney Pills. The benefit they
gave me has been permanent.

Time For Return Has Been
Extended to June 15 Ow-

ernrnent Delay.

: Jacksonville May 1S.-After delay
of several weeks, the partnership
blanks for the return of income taxes
have at last been received at the Of
lice of j. NJ. Cathcart, collector of in
ternal revenue for the district of
Florida. The delay in the receipt of
these blanks is said to have been due
to congestion in the government
printing office.
These forms have been anxiously
awaited by hundreds of business firms
Slroughout the state. They have been
mailed out to everyone on the list at
the internal revenue office, but there
is a possibility that some names may
have been omitted from the register.
So the collector of internal revenue
warns those who come under the head
OF partnerships or of personal services
corporations to get in touch with his
office at once and secure the blanks.
Under the law, il does not matter
whether or not a firm made money
during 1913 Even if the firm oper-
sted at a loss, the law requires that
nne of these blanks be filled out AMI
retdEned.

said he was to be invited to speak on

which side. He was from my town
and naturally I put it through the

was against the League of Nations

members staid away
'T was in the state house and would
have attended had he spoken, but
when I saw there was 30 small a
crowd for anybody to address I did
not go to the chamber. The League

have I am for it, don't think it be-

UNDERTAKERS'

Tallahassee, May 1S.-While dig
yesterday in the private lot of prom
inent family, culley & Son, under
takers, uneartned a steel casket that
bears every evidence of having been
buried more than a century ago The
remains were probably those Of a
child as the casket is only about five
feet long.
The casket is elaborately filigreed
and has three handles on each side
all of which were intact. On the lid
is a heavy piece of plate glass beneath
which is an inscription in Spanish.
Rust has practically obliterated the in
scription, but it is understood that
authorities viii use acid to clear It
and thereby determine, if possible.
something about the identity of the
remains.
The extreme age of the casket is
evidenced by its shape. which resem-
lies the human body. The head.
shoulders. arms, limbs and feet are
shaped out and the lid is lightly ele-
vated over the chest. When the lid
was opened there were found only the
skull. vertebrea and ribs.
The casket, now on display in the
local undertaking establishment has
created much interest and curiosity
and even the Oldest citizens of Talla-
hassee can give no clue as to the pos-
sible identity of the case No stone
marked the grave and no record what
ever is shown upon the charts of the
old cemetery. The casket lay six feet
under the ground and bore evidence of
having been put away carefully and
properly.

HIGHLY IMPORTANT
LAWS SCHEDULED
Peace Treaty Will Perhaps
Not Be Taken Up For
Consideration Until Late
in June.
tsY GEORGE H. MANNlNe)

Washington, May 18.-For real live
bate, passage OF highly important leg
islation and fierce clashes between the
democrats and republicans in the SEN
ate and house the extra session of con-
gress which will convene tomorrow is
expected to surpass anything of its
kind witnessed in many years, and
stand out as one of the most memor-
able legislative assemblies in American
history.
To add more zest and interest to the
situation there are sure to be numerous
clashes over legislation and general
policy between the president, who will
be of one party and the senate and
house which will be controlled by the
other.
The consideration of the peace treaty
with the League of Nations covenant
in the senate is certain to create a
situation of unusual national and in
ternational interest with speeches and
debates that people viii come from all
over the country to hear and which will
be read in the newspapers wi htvivid
interest.
Congress for the first four or five
weeks of the session will give almost
it's entire attention to the passage of
the seven big appropriation bills left
over at the last session. Because they
must be passed before June Both to
prevent several of the federal depart
ments shutting down on July 1st for
lack of funds these measures must be
given the right of way and other ur-
gent legislation will wait until the ap-
preparation bills are disposed Of
1t is expected that it will be late in
June before the peace treaty is given
to the senate for consideration and
ratification 1t may take the senate
six weeks to dispose of it, perhaps
more.
There are a number of very impor-
tant measures to be considered by the
senate and house after the urgent ap-
preparation bills are out of the way.
Some of them are:
A bill to provide authority and an
organization to enforce wartime pro-
hibition after June 30th, and the ma
tionaI prohibition amendment after
January 1st, 1920.
Passage of the constitutional amend
ment for woman suffrage. This was
passed by the house last session but
failed in the senate. As this IS a new
congress it must be passed again by
the house and then by the senate
Return of the railroads and the tele-
graph and telephone lines to their
owners.
Repeal of the luxury taxes and sim
plification OF the language and method
for collecting the individual and cor
sporate income taxes.
A measure to create budget sys-
tenn of appropriation. expenditures ana
revenue to govern the legislative ana
executive branches.
Some revision of the tariff laws to
protect new industries and to assist
some old ones to meet new world ia
Dor and trade conditions.
