Delegates from all parts of the
state will attend a meeting in Santa

choosing the place for holding the
state convention of the American le-
gion this fan They will also remain
over and participate in the reception
to Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood Thurs

Hugh A. Carlisle Post No. Charles

George Beckwith will so to Santa Fe
today to attend the conference to-
morrow.
1t is to be regretted that Albu-
querQue will not have a larger dele
cation on hand when such an impor-
tant matter as choosing the place for
holding the first state convention or
the legion is to come up for decision.
1t was stated last night that the
Chamber Of Commerce had agreed to
bear the expenses of automobiles to
take at least twenty-five delegates to
the Ancient city, but members of the
legion were notified yesterday after
noon that this arrangement had been
cancelled and that the Chamber Of
Commerce would not be able to keep
it's promise. This naturally discom-
NODDED the boys, not many of whom
felt able to pay their way to and from
Santa Fe and bear their expenses while
there.
1t is predicted that Las Vegas will
have fully a hundred boosters on hand
in an effort to swing the convention
to the Meadow city. Santa Fe, of
course, will have a large delegation on
hand, Albuquerque may land the con-
ventiou, but if SO ii will be because
of the untiring efforts put forth by
her half dozen representatives and
not because of the number of dele
gates sent from here.
