the Automobile, Aircraft and We
hicle Workers of America, who
are members of the American
Legion, have been ordered to re-
sign from the legion within thirty
days or pay a fine of 800, and

who by virtue of theirvseryice in
the army, navy, Or marines corps
during the war are entitledi to
membership in the.legion, are for
hidden to join that organization
under penalty of fine of 800.
The dispatch states that the
amendment containing this extra
ordinary. provision was adopted
after it had been reportsd that
the Legion had been used 10
.hreak tho strilsess .pf the. Bastan
police, the Kansas miners,. and
the New York longshoremen, and
also because Legion Posts had
taken action that violated the
constitutional right Of free speech
and free assemblage."

Soldiers and Sailors Legion il

New Orleans. La. Dee. 81
Harry Gamble, chairman of the
Parker State Committee, has Is
sued the following statement:
Mr.. Parker and Mr.. Bouan-
.chaud have spent the past week
in the Seventh District on an
itinerary from Lake Charles to
Opelousas. Their reception has
been more enthusiastic than was
even hoped for. Our conserva-
tive expectation was that under
any circumstances we would carry
the Seventh District by 1900 ma
jority. I do not hesitate row to
say that Mr.. Parker's majority in

tween the Seventh District will
exceed 5000, There will be con-
test between the Seventh and
Third Congressional Districts as
to which will give the banner

/ 'Mr. Parker will enter the
Third District on January 3rd, for
a verytherough itinerary cover
ing nearly a week. We have
never doubted that Mr.. Parker 5
majorits in the Third District
would exeeed 1000. We are not
prepared to- say whether it will
exceed 50N0 until after this
|itinerafv is completed. There IS
|no organized Stubbs Sentiment in
this district. notwithstanding the
Mayor Of New Orleans made a
visit to the Third District yand

faithful and will give a majority
according to present condition fer
Mr.. Parker. of $500 votes. Ef-
forts made by our opponents in
that Distpict in certain places,
which we are perfectly aware OF,
could not possibly reduce this
below 5000.
FtIn the three North Louisiana
Districts the bottom has dropped
out of the campaign of Colonel
Stubbs as exactly as it did in the
Seventh District, and there is not
the least chance of a revival. Col
onel Stubbs was stronger in the
three North Louisiana Districts
the day Mr.. Parker announced
than he has been any day since !;
and that strength then. and now,
was composed very largel, so far
as its leadership was concerned,
of these who had come to believe
that the Ring support already
pledged to Colonel Stubbs would
elect him. As the campaign has
progressed in the northern sec
ton it has been made plain to
these people that there is no rea-
son why Colonel Stubbs should be
a candidate for Governor other
than should equally apply to hum
dreds Of other nice men in that
section. For this reason the can
didacv Of Colonel Stubbs has no
resistance.
"The attempt to discredit Mr.
Parker by insinuating, and in re-
mote districts directly charging,
that he would prefer negroes for
office; and the attack upon his
Democracy, and other similar cam
paign charges have utterly failed
as issues and are reacting in the
country in his favor. The time is
past in Louisiana when such ap-
pealS against man so well known
in the State can have ny infu- |
ence except boomerang.
tfIn New Orleans the disclos-
ure that the millions provided for
the Dock Board and the Indus
trial Canal have been largely
wasted in supplying jobs for the
political machine, is shaking the
confidence of the business men mi
the CITY administration. Mr.. Ros-
en- s investigation and charges
against the financial administra-
ton of the city will be equally |
informing.
" As the campaign stends today, |
cannot see how Colonel Stubbs |
can garry twelve parishes in the
State. Mr.. Walkers estimate of |
Mr.. Parker's majority in ultra |
conservative, so, perhaps. becomes
