LEGION SAYS b0NUS|
CANNOT Be DOWNED|
Serves Notice on President
and Three Members of His
Cabinet Today.

The American Legion served notice
on President Harding today that it's
campaign for adjusted compensation for
former service men cannot be downed,"
and urged the President not to put his
administration In the way of the move
ment.
The legion's message was delivered
by Gilbert Bettman. chairman Of the
national legislative committee Of the
organization. who told Mr.. Harding that
his unusual procedure" of asking de-
ferment Of the legislation. after both
houses Of Congress had indicated their
overwhelming support Of it, would not
prevent ultimate success for the COM
penSa ton measure.
A declaration of similar import was
delivered by Mr.. Bettman to Secretaries
Mellon and Hoover and Attorney Cen
eral 1Saugherty. In each of the confer
enceS, the legion representative asserted
that the. administrations stand was
direct supervision OF the will of the peo-
pie of the United States.
Issues Statement.
At the White House MIR. Bettman
issued statement, which he said
contained the substance of what he
had said to the President, and to the
! three cabinet members:
THE American Legion" said Mr..
Bettman's statement, found that the
House of Representatives. who most
directly represent the people
Of the United States, are in favor of
an adjusted compensation to service
men. The House voted 2S9 to 81.
When. our bill got to the Senate, it
was reported favorably by the Sem
ate finance committee. and was put
on the calendar as unfinished busi-
ness by vote of 46 to 4.
"Thereupon. the President Of the
United States followed the unusual
procedure OF appearing before the
Senate to ask them for a deferment
of the passage Of the adjusted COM
pensation bill. The legion is there
fore, now seeking to show the Presi-
dent and his advisers that the peo-
pie Of the United States are in favor
of the granting of adjusted conpen-
sation to service men.
ut is our purpose to show the ad-
ministration that the demand for an
adjustment of compensation will pot
and cannot be downed. 1t is based
on simple justice. Congress drafted
the soldier and ordered him to serve
at $1.25 day. Wages during the war
period doubled and trebled. Savings
accounts Increased on the average
between $500 and $500. Our govern
ment drafted the soldier. but did not
draft labor. Granting the soldier
basic adjusted pay at the rate OF 81: 70
a day is, therefore, not ponus ior
military service. but only an approx
cate adjustment of the economic loss
suffered by the service man because
Of his days in the service.
by failing to pass this measure.
Congress will leave unsat 1ust
demand Of the nations soldiers The
American Legion urges the President
and his administration not to stand
in the way Of the early passage by
Congress of this measure

What Industrial War Encourages.

The inquiry into the Mingo suihe
troubles now being conducted by the
Senate may yield no constructive re-
suit, but 1t has already revealed one
fact in striking fashion. There can
be no industrial peace in the land as
long as the labor spy" and the whole
system of espionage on labor unions
remain = offensive and defensive
weapons in the hands of the employ
ing interests. The system is morally
and ethically unsound. 1t may be
justified. it has been justified. as a
means of lighting the devil with
fire.; as the only way in which law.
less unionists can be tracked ana
their lawlessness stamped out. The
theory is that all is fair in war. and
that while labor is plotting against
capital the latter has a right to plot
against labor.
If the NTfngo investigation should
lead to constructive study of in
dustrial relations by the Senate, it il
safe to predict that the first point
Of attack will be this form of indus
trial secret service" which does so
much to create bad blood in labor
disputes. The country has outgrown
that sort of thing and has, no use for
the parasites who thrive upon in
dustrial 'hostilities. whether they be-
long to one side or the ether-Balti-

SINGLETARY GOES
TO OKLA AUTOMOBILE
MEMS ASSOCIATION

X. A. Singletary, secretary-manage
of the Oklahoma Good Roads Associa-
tion and well known all over the state
for his efforts in behalf of better roads,
and good roads legislation, has resign
ed his position with the Good Roads
Association and accepted Il similar posi-
tion with the Oklahoma Automobile AS
sociation.
In n statement made TO the Ardmor-
cite Mr.. Singletary gives his reason
for making the change and outlined
the policies he win pursue. My chief
reason for leaving the Good Roads AS
sociation and accepting this new pos
sition, said Mr.. Singletary, is because
of the larger opportunities which will
be afforded me in carrying out the
work that is so absolutely necessary in
giving to oklahoma what she has so
long needed-a permanent system of
hard surfaced roads,
Ever since my connection with the
Good Roads Association / think my
friends will verify | have given my
best effort and time in the furtherance
of good road projects. | have realized
for the last year or two that | was
not getting any place and attributed II
solely to the lack of cooperation in the
work from those who should be most
Interested We have accomplished
some things but are a long ways from
reaching the goal all Of us connected
with the Good Roads Association have
had in mind. We couldn't get legisla-
ton because we didn't have the punch
behind il.
In my new position | expect to have
the cooperation of $4,000 citizens of
this state. In my opinion the Okla
homa Automobile Association will have
that many members by the first day
of July instead of representing a small
contingent of enthusiastic men who
have done their best for good roads
feel that | will have back of me rep
resentatlve men from every nook and
Granny of the state.
1t Is the purpose of this association
to acquire a membership with "A numeri-
cal strength akin to that of the cali
fornia Association. Everybody knows
what that association has done for
California. That state has more miles
of hard surfaced roads than any state
in the union and the credit is general
ly given to the California Association.

tion has set aside large sum of money

for the bureau OF good roads depart
ment of which | will have charge and
has made that fund Of permanent char
acter. Instead of being compelled to
beg funds as in the past this associa-
ton has devised a most excellent plan
to finance itself without cost to its
membership, and under such a plan
see no reason why the association
should not grow larger and more pow
erful every year.
Mr.. Singletary wants it distinctly
understood, he says. that he has in no
wise severed his connection with the
good roads movement but has only
placed himself in a position where he
can carry on in a much better and
greater way. He says there will be
no change in his work but he will be
on the job every day, as in the past,
assisting each and every county where
he may be called in promoting bond
issues; that he will maintain an infor-
