Publication Coming Here.

Already, it is learned, arrangements
have been completed to transfer the
legion's publication from New York
to Washington.
The Importance of the District of
Columbia in legion affairs is evidenced
by the fact that, notwithstanding the
small territory embraced and the
moderate population thereof when
compared to other great American
cities. the District department has no
fewer than seventeen posts, with 6,162
members.

Committees to Be Named.

All three of the trade bodies. it was
learned today, will appoint commit
tees in the near future which will
stand ready to confer with the dele
gates special committee when the
time for such conference shall appear
ripe
"The Board of Trade stands, as al
ways, unhesitatingly behind all plans
to establish national headquarters of
great national organizations here at
the National Capital" said Walter A.
Brown. its president, this morning.

national conventions, feeling that for

American Legion no other convention

At the District departments state
convention held here last Tuesday night
two resolutions were unanimously adopt
ed toward the end mentioned. The first
provides that from the local delegates
to the Minneapolis convention a COM
mittee of three be appointed to secure
an invitation from the District Commits
sioners and from civic organizations
and to prepare and present to the con-
rention resolution inviting the Ameri-
can Legion to establish and maintain
it's national headquarters in the District
The second provides that all delegates
to the convention be instructed to make
all proper efforts to bring the next an
rual convention-that of 1920-here, and
that the same committee of three be au-
thorized to confer with the Commits
sioners and with civic organizations
toward this end
