fzhs An1er5oon Legion Editor u The
Tribune ,oiu cover tho National Legion
Conference on The bonus at Washington
to-day.)
American Legion delegates Represents
ing all states and territories will meet
to-day at Washington for the purpose
OF re-debating the entire question Of
additional compensation for ex-service
men and women, and before the con-
ference adjourns this evening 1t is not
unlikely that sectional lines will be
drawn to tension verging on the
breaking point.
Few Legion assemblages, not even
barring the Minneapolis convention,
have been as important as that schcd-
duled Tor to-day. The bonus issue has
munity in the country with sincerity
Of purpose rejecting the fighting quail
ties Of the men engaged. There have
been rumors that some Of the most Wig
orous opponents Of the bonus would
resign from the Legion rather than sub
scribe to recommendation to Con-
gress demanding such an award, and
such action is not at all unlikely.
AS a matter Of fact, it Is almost GER
tain that the delegates from the Eastern
Safes will make Just that point. They
WILL submit proof that the majority Of
veterans want Federal compensation
and will insist that any of1cer who
cares to place his personal views above
those Of the men he represents resign
forthwith. Touching on this point.
Commander Wade H. Hayes, Of the
New York department, recently issued
this statement:
Inc commander feels that, irrespec-
tive of the personal opinions Of any in
dividual, in view Of the overwhelmingly
expressed attitude Of the State Depart
ment in favor Of adjusted compensa-
ton, as expressed in the reports of the
executive committee, every official Of
the state Organization and subordinate
units is required, II he Is to work in
the interest Of the Legion as whole,
to do everything within his official
power to bring to a successful fruition
the desires Of the New York State de-
partment regarding this subject.
therefore, the commander wishes !,
to be known that he will expect the
wholehearted cooperation and support
OF every subordinate official and unit
within the department In the effort to
expedite the enactment Of proper leg
islation in both the state Legislature
and tho national Congress in favor of
adjusted compensation"
Unfortunately for tho cause Of har-
mony, all states have not taken action
such as that Of New York. II thew had
the conference at Washington to-day
would accomplish its task in jiffy and
adjourn before noon. On the contrary

the country Is diyided on the bonus
issue, and compromise now appears
to be the only way out. The various
sections Of the United States line up
about as follows,
Eastern - Overwhelmingly favors
bonus.
Mid-Western - Divided, with OPP
petition strong.
Far Western-Favors bonus.
Southern-Almost unanimously op-
posed.
This discussion deals only with tho
proposal to demand action by Congress.
The entire country favors additional
compensation, but the opposition re-
corded above Is to making demand on
the government.
The history Of the bonus fight,
briefly, Is that when the Minneapolis
convention took up the question it de-
clded to leave it in the hands of Con-
gress. When Congress- failed to act
after several months the national leg
islative committee of tho Legion over
tions' and drew up a program with q
demand that it be adopted by Washing
ton. The move met with vigorous op-
position from the South and some
other sections of the country, and 1t is
to straighten out the tangle as it now
stands that to-days conference was
called. Commander Hayes and Charles
II. Blakeslee, of Binghamton, will be
New York's representatives.
Stimson Won't Support Bonus
The Tribune is in receipt of let
ter, signed by Henry L. Stimson and
stamped with the official stamp of the
New York County Headquarters. in
which Mr.. Stimson, who Is president
Of the 305th Field Artillery Post 592,
declines to work in the interest of the
passage of the bonus. The letter is
addressed to Commander Hayes and
says in part:
eve are no longer in the army.
Those Of us who hold official positions
IN the American Legion are supposed
to represent the wishes of our consti-
tuents according to the principles of
civil. not military, government There
has been no referendum Of any sort in
New York State by the posts from
which any instructions could be OBJ
tanned, even If it were not legally con-
trary to the deliberately expressed de-
cision of the American Legion last
November at Minneapolis. Backed by
the decision taken at that time i'll
Minneapolis and backed by the de-
Hberate and unanimous resolution Of
my own regimentel post, l must re-
specially submit that I cannot permit
myself to act in the way required by
your Instructions"
1t can readily be seen that the meet
Ing of the New York County Commit
tee at the Automobile Club of
America tonight will be one Of &C.
ton. Mr.. Stimson's sincerity is Just
as great as that. Of the bonus advo-
Gates, and he will not be alone In his
fight tonight Other posts in New
York have taken action similar to that
Of the 305th Field Artillery. There
is no question, however, that at this
time the majority Of Legionnaires in
this county have Endorsed the prop
osition to demand the additional COM
pensation.
