AMERICAN LEGION
CLEANED UP TOWN

The story of how an American Le-
gion Post cleaned up a wide-open
Texas oil town and established a
reign of law and order after it had
received the challenge of direct in
suit at the hands of a dominant gam
bling ring, is told in the Legion Week
ly. Gunplay, hold-ups and whole
sale deportation of undesirables make
the story read like a chronicle of the
roaring days of 40.
Desdemona, Texas, struck oil and
with the oil prospectors came an ele-
ment bordering on the criminal that
set up gambling houses and soon be-
came the controlling influence of the
town.
Peavy-Price Post of the Legion in
CURED the animosaty of the gamblers
through the activity of it's individual
members in combating local evils
and on several occasions Legionnaires
were held up at the point of revolvers
and threatened.
Keeping calm under this constant
menace the Legion men took no con-
certed action until their pictures adj
vertising a post dinner had repeatedly
been torn down and defaced. They
then appealed to state Legion head
quarters which got in touch with the
adjutant general of Texas and a cap
tain of Rangers was dispatched to
Desdemona.
Further insults in the meantime had
been offered to Legionnaires and at a
mass meeting they demanded redress
which was refused. The crisis came
on a stormy night when the popula-
zion of lDesdemona arose and, with is
Legionnaires sworn in as deputy Rang
ers. arrested the men who had been
defacing the veterans posters and
threatening their lives.

WAR STOCKS ARE
CAUSING CONFUSION
American Supplies Were Sold to Tx
raipe and Then Taken Back.
AN Aaaoclated Press. J

Paris, Aug. ga job LOT Of Amer
lean war stocks sold to- a Ukrainian
Cooperative society last spring for &c.
100000 and later taken back by the
American authorities, has caused the
French war department almost as
much trouble as the liquidation of the
remainder, which sold for $s5o,ooO,-
900.
one part Of the stocks is today
warehoused at Langres, France, where
the French courts have undertaken to
determine their actual ownership.
Another part is warehoused at Mar
seille in the name OF the Ukrainian
society and cannot be touched by the
American authorities, although up to
this time any disposal or departure of
the stocks has been prevented.
The lager part of the stocks, ware
housed at Bordeaux, was ransacked
by the UkraiDians for choice bits and
later by thieves, but the remainder has
just been recovered by the American
authorities and sold to the Jugo -Slav
and Czecho- Slovakian governments.
The only boat that managed to sail
with a cargo of the stocks was turned
back in May by an American destroy
err after it had left Constantinaple and
the cargo was later disposed of there,
little none yremaining after the
freight charges had been repaid to
the Ukrainians.
The stocks. consisting largely of
clothing and medicines, were sold on
the understanding that they would be
used for the commission which was
then in France accepted in payment
notes guaranteed by the Ukrainian
government of that, period. Some
months afterward it was discovered
that the agents of the cooperative So
ciety were peddling the stocks about
France, and the commission decided &c
take them over.

that 1t is difficult to believe that po-
litical generals can ever be so bold,
y,razen or foolish. And yet the very
thing that has just been exposed is
simply a repetition of the follies OF
the year.
when the senatorial oiigarchy
stood out in the way of peace, men
looked at each other and asked the
question: How can such thing be
done, even in the name of politics.
when the senatorial group, with an
inconsistency that persisted, moved
from one contention to another, the
same query ran through the communi-
ties of the land.
when they unbiushingly selected a
leader of the oligarchy, Senator Lodge,
to sound the keynote. Mckinley, Lin
coin and Roosevelt politicians shook
their heads.
@When, at 2:11 in the morning in a
hotel room at Chicago the senatorial
crowd selected one Of its, number to
be the candidate of the party, the rank
and file was appalled,.
"But, when the money digging
campaign started with an organization
swept over the country reached in
every state and county, when open
relation with business became an af-
fair of partisan pride, then 1t became
apparent to all that the group which
has run away with the affairs of the
Republican party after having de-
parted from the ideaIism of its hiss
toric days, has simply gone mad.
