Debate and Wrangling.
The election of officers conclud-

debate and wrangling over the sec
tions Of the resolutions committee
report, particularly one criticiZing
the speech delivered by George
Harvey, American ambassador to
Great Britain, shortly after his ar
rival in England. In the address
Mr.. Harvey discussed the reasons
why the United States entered the
war.
The original resolution was
thrown out on a roll call and a
substitute adopted. The substitute
was written in less sharp terms
and expressed the belief that the
ambassadors remarks did not rep
resent the true feeling for which
the American legion stands. 1t di-
rected that copy of the resolu;
ton be sent to President Harding.
Two resolutions bearing on fed
eral compensation for former SOL
diers were among those adopted.
Both declared in favor of immedi-
ate compensation legislation.
Adjusted Compensation.
One submitted by the conven-
TONS legislative committee de-
clared that "after careful consider
alton of all of the arguments ad-
vanced in opposition to the meas
ure, including the letter of the
secretary of the treasury and the
address of the president to con-
gress, we still firmly believe in the
justice, fairness and immediate ne Il
cessity of the adjusted compensa-
ton measure" The resolution
adds that it is resolved that the
legion "reafflrms its stand upon
adjusted compensation and asks
that congress pass this measure
without further equivocation or de-

sponse to the greeting, 81 came

appreciation. We have been
friends in war--we must be

When the formal program was
concluded, the marshal started to
enter his car, but he changed his
mind. He was tired, and he asked
the head of the school whether he
might rest moment in the par
lor.
The marshal went in alone into
the parlor. He leaned back In q
chair and closed his eyes, but he
was not to take a nap. Several lit
tie girls who had not been able
to see Marshal Foch we'll when the
exercises were in progress, tiptoed
to the door to peek in. The mar
shall saw them, bright-eyed and
bashful, and beckoned them to en-
ter.
And half a dozen. at the same
time abashed and delighted, cid
in and stood first on one foot and
then on the other beside the mar
shal's chair. and smiled at him,
answering his questions as to their
names and ages. They had been
taught to speak French, some of
them spoke lispingly. When the
marsha1s twenty minutes were up,
he shook hands with two little
boys gravely and kissed the little
girls.
There We're great tears in his
eyes, for today was the anniver-
sary of the death of his son, who
perished in the war.

HOUSE WILL NOT
ACCEPT A SALES
TAX PLAN, WORD
SENT To SENATE
Fordney Expects to Bring
This Up in Connection
With the Soldier Bonus
at the Regular Session,
A THIRD SUCCESSIVE
NIGHT MEETING HELD
Amendments Offered By
Senators Are Disposed Of
Rapidly Few Being
Adopted, and is Cut Short
nBy The AssoGatea rressJ

Washington, Nov 2.-Deploring
the effort to put a sales tax
through the senate at present,
Chairman Fordney of the house
ways and means committee, dls-
closed today that it was his plan
to bring in sales tax in connection
with the soldiers bonus bill which
he said would be reported during
the regular session.
Earlier, Mr.. Fordney, represen-
tatives Green of Iowa and Long
worth of Ohio, had informed SEN
ate leaders that under no condition
would the house agree to a sales
tax at this time.
Smoot Plan Proponents
With proponents of the Smoot
plan claiming only five votes less
than a majority for the sales tax,
some republican senate leaders
thought the fate OF that PROPOSE
ton would be decided by discus
sions in the senate. The latest
canvass of the senate by leaders
waJ said to have shown thirty re-
publican senator's for the sales tax,
twelve against it and twelve doubt
Two democrats were represented as
favoring this form of taxation, with
three others doubtful.
Proceeding with the tax bill, the
senate completed consideration or
majority committee amendments
and took up charges proposed by
senators. A third successive night
session was held.
Changes made in the bill in
cluded adoption of a five cent a
gallon tax on syrup used in the
manufacture of carbonated bever-
ages, the tax on which had been
fixed at two cents, and the reduc-
tions from five to three cents a
pound in the rate on carbonic acid
gas.
Another amendment adopted
would exempt from the admission
charges madss shy-community canter
picture shows.
Insurance Section.
Under a majority amendment to
the insurance section, agreed on,
mutual insurance companies other
than life companies would be taxed
on net income as computed under
the present law, while old line in
surance companies, other than life,
would be taxed on the net income
from investment and underwrit-
ing.
Amendments offered by sens
tors were disposed of rapidly, but
few being adopted, and the night
session was cut short. Senator
Penrose explained that since the
soldiers bonus and sales tax pro-
posals were the only big issues
remaining so far as he knew, moth
ing was to be gained by meeting
longer tonight.

has written the Department Of

is making 800 per cent net profit
on his liquor sales; even after. pay

he seems to regard as a part Of
