BY EDWARD w. PicKARo.

WITH some of the greatest war.
w riors Of the allied nations and
the United States as its guests, the
American Legion met In convention
last week In Kansas City. Seldom
have such scenes of enthusiasm been
witnessed In an American city. and
never before have we had here such
a distinguished group Of military and
naval leaders as those who brought to
the legion the greetings Of our asso-
ciates In the World war and sat In
the reviewing stand as the thousands
Of American veterans Of that conflict
marched In the grand parade.
Naturally Marshal Ferdinand Foch
Of France, generalisslmo Of the allied
armies. held first place In the interest
and enthusiasm, but General Pershing
ran him close second; and Admiral
Lord Beatty. the hero Of the battle
Of Jutland. General Diaz, chief of the
Italian armies. and Gen. Baron
Jacques of Belgium could not com
plain Of the welcome accorded them.
All Of them addressed the convention.
and all Of them paid full tribute 10
the gallantry OF the soldiers Of the
armies Of the allied nations. with al
ways reverent words for those who
gave up their lives In the cause Of
liberty, and words Of sympathy for
those TO whom the great conflict
brought wounds and Illness.
The legion elected Hanford Mac
Nider, lieutenant colonel Of the Ninth
infantry In the war and banker of
Mason City. Iowa, It's national com
mander. and by unanimous vote con-
ferred on Maj. Gen. Milton J. Fore
man of Illinois the title Of past CON-
mander with all privileges Of that Of

Of Honor. Croix de Guerre, with cita.

silver star and the Italian war cross.
He was cited three times I'm general
orders.
Just before II adjourned the conven-
ton adopted several interesting reso-
buttons. One Of them declared for
bonus legislation and "deplored the
request Of President Harding to de-
lay passage by congress Of a measure
for the same and the acqulescence 81
congress In that respect" Another
resolution. mildly censuring AmbasSa-
dor Harvey for his London speech. de-
clared that address does not repre-
sent the true American attitude as In
terpreted by the American Legion. and
let II he known now and for all time
that America fought not only for the
of Americas rights. hut
for the freedom Of the world" The
legion opposed the freeing 81 Debs.

grafton and for loyalty In schools. and
adopted the daisy as Its official flower.
