Though much has been done for
men who served in the Army and
Navy during the war, particularly
those who were totally or partly dis
abled. and further concessions are
being discussed, there are thousands
of former service men scattered
throughout the United States to whom
the government owes money, but has
sought in vain for more than year,
so that the obligation might be sat
isfled.
The total amount that the govern
ment is holding for these men approx
imates 100000. a large part of
which is in the form of liberty bonds
bought by the men during the war
and paid for at the rate of few
dollars a month. allotted from their
pay.
According to Brig Gen. H. NJ Lord,
head of the finance division of the
War Department, there were 4,S49
men who bought bonds while serving
in the Army and asked the govern
ment to hold the bonds in tnlst until
after the war, but who seemed to
have disappeared from the face of the
earth after being mustered out. Let

men have been returned, and author

It is easy to conceive, too, what

Another measure OF great import
ance at this time, which the conven-
ton will take up is the Japanese I'm
migration question. The delegations
from the western states have been
instructed to demand an absolute bar
against Japanese immigration. This
question will be viewed with great
apprehension in view of the fact that
the American and japanese govern
ments are carrying on formal negoti-
atoms to exclude japanese immi-
grants.
The American Legion is to hold its
second national convention next week,

complished things little short of mar
velous.
Through persistent efforts it has
obtained from Congress appropria-
lions totaling $35S. 00o,00 for disabled
men, and an additional $31. 900, 900 for
twenty-six land projects for settle
ment to ex-service men and women,
and for the return of the soldier dead.
The sass. 200. 900 appropriated by the
last Congress, which is an increase of
1os per cent over the amount appro-
priated by the previous Congress. is
as follows: The Sweet bill, which ap-
propriated $so,00o.o00 to disabled men
per year and providing specifically
for an increase from $50 to $50 per
month. This was the first big step by
tho legion to aid the disabled men,
Then came an increase of the ap-
preparation allowed the bureau of
war risk insurance, the total of
which was s125.OOo,o00 for death and
disability claims; $4s.0o0,000 for hos
pitalization for discharged disabled
mon; the federal board for vocational
education was allowed $4,000, 900, and
the balance was for remodaling and

Y 1TH President-elec
M sitting in the United
" " States Senate and the
President in fact in the
White House-an unprecedented
situation, which will occur. II
Senator Harding. the republican
nominee, is successful at the polls
the next session of Congress will
not only be unusual. but In all
probability will accomplish little
1t would be difficult enough If the
President-elect in the Senate
should be of the same political
party as the President But with

dent Wilson a democrat 1t would
look though Congress might

1t would do in an affirmative way.
Senator Hasding has said that if
he is elected President he will not
give up his aaat ~ the Senate, but
will serve dnsips che next session
1t Is easy to see why he will fol-
low this course At present forty
nine seats In the Senate are held

republican seats is held by sena-

court and whose case Is now pend
Ing before the Supreme Court I'm
til the case is cleared up, he will
not occupy his seat on the floor of
the Senate-in fact, he has not done
so since his conviction. That leaves

and forty-seven democrats, if all
turn out.
Should Senator Harding resign
from the Senate. Gov. Cox of Ohio.
who is democrat. of course would
appoint a democrat to sit in his
place during the short session of
Congress. which begins December
L That would mean that the con-
troll Of the Senate would pass from
the republicans to the democrats.
If Mayer Davis, the republican
candidate for governor in Ohio,
wins out in November. he would
take his seat in January as gov
ernor, and then, if he desired, Sem
ater Harding would be able to re-
sign from the Senate with the as

If Senator Harding wins the cleo

Senate, the Senate galleries are
likely to be more crowded than

spite the fact that politics is forbid
den by the constitution of the legion.
The convention also plans to call
on the Secretary of War, demanding
that he make public at once list OF
approximately 10000 deserters and
draft delinquents, and some de1ega-
tions have been instructed to demand
the resignation Of the Secretary for
his leniency with enemy aliens, draft
deserters and slackers.
Another important measure which
will come before the convention is
that of universal military training.
The American Legion has favored 1t.
This convention will undoubtedly re-
affirm this policy and instruct the
new national officers to continue the
expressed demand Of the ex-soldiers
for a new system of national pre-.
paredness-
Proxram Of Interest.
When the convention opens In
Cleveland the address by Nationar
Commander Franklin DOlier will be
listened to with unusual interest for
several reasons First and foremost,
the removal Of political restrictions
from the constitution Of the legion
will be brought before the conven-
ton, as many state conventions have
recommended that the legion get into
politics. With a combined member
ship of 100000 mon and women it
can readily be seen what q ire
mendous influence this organization
will have II this action Is taken.
Whom tho legion was organized 1t
was specifically stated in It's consti-
tuition that no officers could hold a
salaried elective position and at the
same time be an official Of the legion.
should the convention modify the
constitution. even slightly, it would
Mace the organization in a position
to advise it's members how to vote.

engaged in partisan politics. but are

thought about independence.

what we were driving at He had
never heard Of independence. The
younger woman caught at the word

There. you have it," continued Sem
ator Sterling. 81 venture to say that
those people in that Filipino house
were above the average of the ma
tives on the island of Luzon, which is
the biggest island in the group and
the island in which tho greatest
amount of progress has been made,
probably. Yet they did not even know
what independence meant.
THE people who are pressing for in
dependence of the islands now are the
pinos. who have reasons Of their own
for desiring to see the islands made
independent that are not hard to

Of these students have been educated

An End to English.

language used, he said. But Spanish
or the mixture of Spanish and the
native languages and dialects still

granted. he said, he had no doubt that
but what the people would revert to
Spanish or native languages, and that
any hope Of their becoming an Eng
| disappearing race would vanish. He
said that he regretted the fact that
many of the American teachers are
being withdrawn from the schools
and Filipinos put in their places. 1t

change.

of the congressional party were en-
tertained at the governors palace in
Manila during their stay in the
islands. He said that he had an OPP
portunity to discuss the Philippine
question with Gov. Harrison. who has
been in the islands almost since the
beginning Of the Wilson administra-
ton. The governor has been an ad-
vocate of Philippine independence.
In fact, the democratic party has
stood for some time for independence

date. 1t will be remembered that
