Radical Change i'm Program
of Legion's National Con-
vention Sought by Vet
Grams in Eastern States
Leaders Convinced Limit
on Time Will Handicap
Debate on Vital Issues;
May Hold Night Sessions

controversy that may prove en-
barassing to Kansas City Legionnaires
is almost certain to arise on the first
day of the Legion's national convention
in that city one week from to-day.
The program planned by the local or
ganization is responsible for great
deal Of dissatisfaction among veterans
OF New York and other Eastern states,
and already leaders from those depart
ments have met and announced their
determination to have it changed radi-
cally, if possible.
The first day and most of the second
are to be given over almost entirely
to the welcome to distinguished guests
and parade of Legion and Auxiliary
members, thus leaving virtually only
one day for the transaction of Legion
business.
Experience has taught the ex-service
men that it was difficult to finish all
the work set for the national conven-
tion when more than two days was
given to it, therefore they are CON
virced that the organization will find
itself unable to pay the proper atten-
tion to vital issues which come up for
discussion at Kansas City.
"This is the most important conyen-
ton we yet have held" one Of the
Legion's officers said yesterday, with
the adjusted compensation, hospitaliza-
ton and unemployment problems
scheduled for action. "In addition to
these there are scores of other i'm
portant issues and the election of ma
tional officers will take up great deal
OF time | feel that the convention
&C mmittee will be compelled to change
it's schedule We are going to pro-
pose that all our guests be received
and the parade be held on the first day,
thus giving US two uninterrupted days
in which to transact our affairs
If this change is not made by the
convention committee, the Eastern
delegates probably will compromise by
asking that night sessions be held.

"CAPT. JACK"
GETS PATENT
is THE INVENTOR OF A NEW PUMP
DOING AWAY WITH RODS AND
LEATHER VALVES
PLACE new PUMP ON MARKET
One Hundred Now Being Manufactured
in Spokane.

Capt Jack Passoo, 80 years old, just
recently received u S. patent for a
rodless pump. which it is claimed is
a great improvement over the ordinary
pump, works easier and will throw a
greater stream of water. An order
has been placed with the Washington
Machinery and Supply Co., of Spo-
kane for the manufacture of 100
pumps and another order is being
filled by the Standpoint Iron Works,
of which Thomas King is the pro-
prietor.
The inventor is a veteran of the
Civil War and participated in several
Indian wars. In one of the Indian
engagements he lost his left arm. He
came west some so years ago, followed
many of the gold rushes and is we'll
known to early pioneers of many
states. He goes by the name Capt.
Jack" and but few know him by the
name of Passoo. He is of French and
Indian descent, his mother having been
a quarter-breed Indian.
Charles Isbel, of Spokane, holds a
half interest in the invention and is
lAudhSluS tic mai hSlluS Ol the pump.
Capt. jack states that he has
worked several years to perfect his in
vention and that he was year and a
half in getting a patent A great deal
of the delay was caused by his lack of
funds.
The new pump does away with all
rods and no leather valves are used.
Those who have seen demonstration
of the pump claim that it is far super
ior to the valve pump, that it is easier
operated and that it will throw a far
greater stream of water than the or
dinary pump. 1t is believed that the
new invention will find ready mar
ket in irrigation districts.
Capt. Jack" says that the new pump
can be manufactured and placed on
the market at a much lower price than
is now being asked for valve pumps.
The Montana sales rights for the pump
have been sold.
