Proposal In 1917.
After careful investigation 1t
would appear that the foregoing
plan was originally proposed in
January, 1917. at the Havana meet
ing OF the American Institute OF
International Law, at which repre-
sentatives from the entire Pan
American group Of states were
present. While the plan was pre-
scented by Alexandra Alvarez, a noted
international lawyer, who repre-
scented Chile, it was not acted upon
but simply filed Is were other plans
at that time because it was felt that
the peace conference ending the
European war would have to deal
with such questions.
However. al the same Havana
meeting some general principles
were adopted which have lately been
stressed by Nicholas Murray Butler,
a caller at Marion, Ohio, and one
of the influential men in the Repub-
lican party.
Those general principles have to
do more with the legal than the
political phases Of international
cooperation and it Is more than
likely that they will be given cor
ious consideration because unlike

RUMOR SAYS
ALTON MAY
SELL BRANCH

A rumor that cannot be authentic
ated is going around local railroad
circles to the effect that a movement
is on foot by which the Mckinley
system will purchase the Chicago &
Atoms South Branch, running from
this city to Jefferson City, and make
an electric road Of it.
The fact that the Mckinley system
owns the power plant at jefferson
City and also the bridge crossing the
river at that place lends credence to
the story. 1t has been known for
sometime that the Mckinley system
has had its eye on this section of the
state for a number of years. They
have negotiated without success to
purchase power plants in this part of
Missouri n of which was the Mis-
souri, Utilities Co., plant in Mexico.
Those familiar with transportation
have suggested that it would only be
matter Of time until Missouri was
. network of electric lines as Illinois
S today. As the Mckinley company
has the lines across the Mississippi
so they concluded the same system
would connect with Missouri lines and
,uild new lines sooner or later.

COOLIDGE SPEAKS
AT FIRST SESSION
OF CONVENTION

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, October 3D.
The Third National Convention of the
American Legion opened Monday with
everything in readiness for, the big
gest meeting Kansas City has ever
had. The city is a riot of color and
already thousands have arrived for
the meeting which will last three days
with night sessions.
Vice-president CoIlidge delivered a
brief speech ito the convention Mon
day morning and a memorial service
was held for the late Colonel Fred
erick W. Galbraith, Jr., national COM
mander of the Legion.
The national officers are prepared
to do their duty in attending to the
business of the eLgion and to enter
tain Marshal Foch, General Pershing,
Admiral Beatty of England, Gen.
Baron jacques of Belgium and Cen
eral Diaz who will be among the dis
tinguished guests of the Legion.
The three things of Importance
which will be considered during the
meeting are: The choice of the next
national commander, the place for the
next national convention and a fight
to move the permanent headquarters
of the organization away from Indian
apolis.

st a Million
is Taken Here
b Grafter S

That almost $75O,00O has beer
spent by Audrain county residents in
the p;st twelve months for worthless
securities is the opinion of a number
+ local bushes men who are in pos
ltion to know what they are talking
about. This opinion is backed by in
formation from other sources which
have facilities for gathering such in
formation.
The total may be even more than
this. Considering conditions today
this has been a severe drain on the
financial resources of the county. In
many instances those who have In
vested could least afford to lose their
Investment no mattG how small a
sum was.
Much of this money was in the
form of Liberty Bonds which the
grafters took at their par value and
then gave the person fieeced attract
ively engraved certificates that
weren't worth the money that it cost
to prepare them.
Audrain bankers as a unit worked
faithfully and hard to protect the in
weston but it is evident that their ac-
tivities were of little avail in many
cases. The lure of getting rich quick
over-ruled caution and now brings
its always attendant regret and sor-
row.

IT appears to US the success of the
disarmament congress rests more or
less with the United States. This
country is in sufficiently strong a
position to almost dictate conditions
at the meeting. Of course such a
policy would hardly do but there is
more than one way of SHINING a
cat" The Senate is having its full
share in the gathering and is salts
fed for we have heard no uproar from
that quarter regarding the meeting.
With it carrying the approval THIS
body withheld fro mthe League Of
Nations we are interested to See
what the outcome will be. President
Harding has somewhat qualified his
idea of the success of the meeting
concerning our part in it. We trust
this is not a prophecy. His assurance
Of the determination of our repsesen-
tatives to see that disarmament be-
come a reality would be more assur-
ing to us and have its weight with the
Representatives of other nations at the

81 the Older Boys and Girls in this
