Williams conceived a monopoly on all the citys evening papers which brought all the other boys into his. em- plOy and made money for him. Later he branched out and worked in a news paper press room. He worked up to pressman, a position he was holding when he enlisted in the Third En- gineers for the war.
 Forced to quit school while in the fourth grade, Williams obtained good education on the streets and by night study. At twenty-one years old he was president of the Fargo Trades and Labor assembly, post he re. signed to enlist. He went into the army as a private and came out with the same rank. He was the first state Rdjutant of the American Legion de- partment.

NEWS NOTES FROM
 AMERICAN LEGION

To make former doughboys feel at home, unique plans were laid for the Nebraska state convention of the American Legion at Fremont. Mili- tary police were stationed about the city that the soldiers might have the pleasure of blithely disregarding the red arm bands of one-time authority. Officers in Sam Brown belts and shiny puttees were conspicuous, but privates passed them by, cigarette in mouth, with a nod of recognition an swering for the old snappy salute. Wooden shoes clattered over cobble- stones to bring back memories of French villages and to strengthen the illusion, small boys on street corners pleaded: "Give me one ceegaret, plees?" Signs on tumble-down build ings advertised "Vin Blanc" and "Vin Rouge" and other all but forgotten commodities of the French country side.

BUREAU MAKING

Marquette, March 23.-The name,
Of all the garages and hotels through

nified desire to share in the bu
reau's toarist advertising campaign
by joining the Michigan Tourist and

early this week to Grand Rapids, fol

lieves that there are still a good mum.
Der of such establishments in upper
Michigan who should get in line and
help out with the work.
'It must be conceded" Mr.. -Doelle
said recently in commenting upon the
plan," that the hotels and garages
are the two chief benefciaries from
the tourist advertising campaign
And most of our hotel and garage
men must admit that their business
has been boosted considerably during
the past two or three years. The Bu-
reau does not wish to claim all of the
credit for the rapidly increasing tou-
rist traffic through upper Michigan
each year, but its officers and direc-
tors do feel that the extensive publi-
city and advertising work carried on
each year is having its effect. 1t is
certain that more tourist inquiries
are being received at the Bureau Of
fees now than ever before in it's his
tory"
The 1921 all-state tourist booklet
now in the process of preparation is
going to be distinct feature of the
Bureaus advertising campaign this
year. Thousands of copies will be
mailed out from the Grand Rapids Of
fee to prospective tourists through
out the country, and thousands more
distributed to tourists in this region
this season. The names of all the
hotels and garages which have SUBJ
scribed to membership in the Michi-
gan Tourist and Resort Association,
of which the Bureau is branch Office,
are to be inscribed upon the road
map Of upper Michigan. It is dis
tinct advertising feature for the ga
rage and hotel men,. Mr.. Doelle be-
lieves, and one in which they should
be eager to participate.

! passage, lacking two votes OF the net
essary 81. Effort to reconsider tn
| vote in order to table the bill faile
when Reps. Moore and Haan. who ha
1 voted for 1t, voted against reconsider
ing. The bill thus was killed for tn
session.
On the same day that the hous
was disposing Of the Hart bill the sen
ate also drew a big gallery by havinl
on special order two hotly conteste
bills. The first was the so-called "ful
crew bill''. to provide for an extrs
brakeman on freight trains Of more
than fifty cars. Similar bills have
been in all the recent legislatures and
always were marked by warm battles
between the railroads and the train
mems organizations. The senate
passed the bill this time by a vote Of
Is to IL and 1t now goes to the house
where another battle over it is pre-
dicted by both sides.
DEBATE ON FIREARM BILL.
The second special bill in the sen
alto was the eugenics bill put in by
Senator Davis. which would require q
physicians certificate Of health for all
parties seeking marriage licenses. The
roll call that finally ended this battle
showed 19 senators against 1t out OF
the 80 members and the bill thus went
down to defeat.
Enough argument for half a dozen
ordinary bills was occasioned in both
houses by the lennon bill to prohibit
unnaturalized aliens from hunting
wild game. The real intent Of the bill
Is to keep them from having firearms
In their possession. Much crime ia
attributed to aliens and Rep. Lennon
took occasion in the debate on the
Hart capital punishment bill to de-
clare that the murder rate In Michi-
gan would be lessened more by his
bill against the possession of Guns by
foreigners than it would be by the In
Fiction Of the death penalty. The Len
non bill got by both houses in spite
of the long arguments over 1t and
now is in the hands of the governor.
The senate killed Senator Hayes
bill to make Good Friday legal holi-
day, the opposition prevailing against
it on the ground that other holidays
are used more for sports than any
thing else and that such use of Good
Friday would be repugnant to all who
wished to observe the day as church
day.
Important bills that have emerged
from committee and will now take up
the attention OF the legislators are the
moving picture censorship bill and
the joint resolution to amend the con-
stitution so as to obtain state in
come tax. In connection with the
latter proposal there already is warm
advance argument over the respective
merits of an income tax as against
a proposed corporation tax. Some
favor both.
