succeeds Hanford MacNider Of Iowa.

candidates, the vote being: Owsley,
STA; Deegan, PSI; Thompson, 2O5; Nc

was elected national chaplain, defeat
ing Rev. Ezra Clemmons, Methodist
minister of Minnesota, by a vote of ia
to 374. 1t was the legion's greatest
convention, everybody said, and the
one which had accomplished most. Aft
er stormy sessions the legion reaffirm-
adjusted compensation is the
term the legionaires prefer-criticised
severely Brigadier General c. E. Saw
yer, personal physician to the presi-
dent; tabled resolution dealing with
the Volstead act, the Ku KluX Klan
and various minor issues. 1t averred
again that it's first interest was proper
care of the disabled OF the war. The
convention was characterized by the
surprise, excitement and emotional out
bursts which those who have attended
similar conventions in the past have
learned 10 expect. Following his cleo
ton last Friday Commander OwsleI
made the following statement to th'
Legion convention: please accept my
heartfelt gratitude" he said, for th'
greatest honor that could come to on'
who served in the World war. W.

= The ruling of the general confer
ence Of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, South, regarding abstention
from use of tobacco does not apply to
preachers admitted into the state con-
ferences OF the church prior to issu-
ance Of the ruling, Bishop Collins Den
ny, of Richmond, Va, presiding Of
ficer of the Western North Carolina
conference, stated at Monroe, N. c.,
yesterday, in reply to a question. The
rule against the use of tobacco, how
ever, does apply to all candidates
seeking admission to the church as
preachers, he added, and he asserted
that it is the duty of the various state
conferences to adhere to the require
ments touching admission of candi-
dates. Bishop Denny explained that
he uses tobacco, but that If the new
law had reached so far as to touch
his case he would suffer the loss Of
my right arm" rather than disobey it..
