Legion; Thinks
Men Aid Weeks
Charges Membership Is Made
Up of Former Officers
of A. E.. F.

WASHINGTON, Nov. s-Senator Tom
Watson Of Georgia, today carried his
fight with the Army into the camps of
the American Legion. He charged that
Secretary OF War Weeks was attempting
to enlist the aid OF the legion 'in an eff
fort TO whitewash' his charges that
American soldiers were hanged without
trial in France. "And l expect them to
rally to the Secretary Of Wars aid" he
added. 1.-THE American Legion is chiefly
organized by former officers of the A. e.
f., who want to perpetuate the military
spirit in the United States"
Watson's remarks were provoked by a
statement made by Secretary Weeks
yesterday. appealing to Hanford Mac
Nider, commander of the legion. to lend
its assistance to the War Department in
obtaining all facts bearing on the issue
which has been raised by Senator Wat
son.
Watson also demanded, speedy action
Of the committee appointed by the Sem
ate to investigate his charges. The COM
mittee met in executive session yesterday
to organize and then adjourned until
next week.
Why can't the committee go ahead
now" asked Watson. I'm ready. They
say the tax bin and other matters are
engaging their attention. Well, other
committees find time to meet
1T is to be expected that the American
Legion would side with Secretary OF War
Weeks and against me. IL has attacked

me and broke up one Of my meetings.
Il have no fear of anything 1t can do.
The great mass Of former service men
who did the real fighting do not belong

Additional documents Senator Watson
has placed before the committee contain
many charges OF brutality and executions
Of men without trial.

The camera is on the end of a long

The light from four carbon lamps in

A number of prominent German sur
geons have filmed the operations by
which they have won their fame. They
now wish to install similarly constructed
operating rooms In other European cap
itals and in America and exchange the
films for the benefit Of universities and

THOUSANDS GO
WEST IN BACK
TO FARM RUSH
Call of Land Grows Louder
as Wages Decline in
Cities.

OMAHA, Nov. S-The American peo-
pie are still interested In farms ana
farming despite the much talked about
drift to the cities"-that is. If "straws"
indicate the direction the wind is blow
ing. With the decline In wages In the
city, the call OF the land is becoming
| louder and louder.
! Here are some of the "straws" which
show that the landward movement is not
dead-and not even Ill.
In the fiscal year ended, 22222. $50
acres of homestead lands were taken Ut
in eastern Wyoming, the land offices be-
| ing in Douglas, Buffalo, Newcastle and
| Cheyenne.
Ten thousand acres of irrigated home
stead land were taken up in the Sho-
shone. Wyo., and North Platte, Neb.,
| districts.
| New families to the number of 5692
were received at stations of the Burling-
ton railroad in western Nebraska and
| Wyoming.
| More than thirty trains of fifty cars
each brought the household goods Of
these families to their new homes.
Fifteen thousands letters OF inquiry
have been received by the immigration
department of the Burlington at Omaha.
All these $4,000 writer's wanted to know
how to get to the land. 49,
Twenty i've per cent of the men who
homesteaded the 1920, $50 acres in Wyo-
ming were former soldiers. Under the
United States land laws they were per-
mitted to apply their length of service
in the Army to their homestead require
ments In the way any ex-soldier who
had served two years in the Army was
required to spend but seven months ON
his homestead before a clear title was
issued.
Five per cent of the hopesteaders were
women-mostly school teachers and wom-
en- who had. served in some capacity
during the war.
Most of this 100000 acres is of the
"dry farming kind. While there are
millions and millions of acres Of free
land In Wyoming, practically none can
be farmed by ordinary methods. I'm
der the dry farming system crops Of
wheat are produced every alternate year,
not each year. Crops of beans, potatoes
and corn are alternated with the wheat
Twenty years ago there were 10000, 900
acres of free public land in Nebraska.
Today there are less than 10000 acres
and these are considered worthless The
free lands Of Nebraska are all gone. So
are the free lands of Iowa, Oklahoma,
Kansas, etc.
