Plans Are Outlined for Big
Parade-Vice President
Marshall Invited

PLANS for the celebration of Armis-
tice Day are being formulated by the
special committee of the American
Legion. At the luncheon held yester-
day at / o'clock at the cafe of the
Vivic association it was decided to ex-
tend invitations to every organization
which was engaged in war work and
every ex-service man is United and ex
pected totake part, whether he is af-
flfated with the Legion or not.
Special invitations are to be eX-
tended to the Confederate Veterans, the
G. A. r. and the Spanish War Veterans
and they, with the ex-service men,
Red Cross and other patriotic organiza-
lions are to be invited to take part in
the parade.
The committee has extended an in
vitatfon to Vice President Marshall to
take part in the celebration and to de-
liver the address of the occasion. In
formation has been received that the
vice president is contemplating a south
ern trip at that time and the commit

tive by constitutional amendment in

tive by constitutional amendment In
January.
1t is that the German peace treaty may
be ratified and that the President may
declare peace and rehabilitation OF the
army and navy. Some legal experts con-
tend that would automatically annul the
wartime prohibition law.
But there is a legal question involved
as to whether the ratification of the treaty
with Germany alone will accomplish that
end.
The wartime prohibition act was passed
at a time when the United States was at
war with both Germany and Austria
Hungary.
Hostilites, however, had actually
ceased Some law officers here are in
clined to believe that it may not be end
ed until both treaties are ratified.
On the othe rhand friends of the ad-
ministration who profess to know its
plans. say they expect to see the wartime
prohibition ban lifted by presidential
proclamation as soon as the German
treaty is ratified.
