St. Louis Man Is
Attacking Status
of Supposed Child
CBy AssocInsea PressI

st. Louis, Mo-, Oct. 19-Herman
Henry Laumeier, wealthy clubman
and real estate dealer, yesterday af-
ternoon asked the circuit court to de-
termine the paternity Of the son Of
his former wife, Mrs. Byrd Shoe
maker, who is suing him in New
York for the support of the child.
He decalres he separated from her
the day after they were married in
January Of 1918, and that the child
was not born until twenty-three
months later.
Mr.. Laumeier, who was secretary
of the st. Louis club of the short
lived Federal League, asks that a
guardian Of the child be appointed,
and if it is found that he is not the
father Of the child, he requests that
his former wife and the child be
enjoined permanently from making
any claims against him or his estate.
If, however, it is found that he is
the father of the boy, which he says
he doubts, he wants his care and
custody, declaring his former wife's
conduct and companions, associates
and acquaintances unfit her to have
the care, study and raising of leg
itimate child.

.PERSH|NG GREETS MEN
Commander-in-Chief Is
Just a Buck Private at
New Orleans
CBy ASaOcInteA Pressl

New Orleans, Oct. 19.-The fourth
day of the national convention of the
American Legion, in progress here
was marked by the arrival of the
commander of the American expedi.
tionary forces, General John ]
Pershing, who reached here today.
The general, official dignity laid
aside, leaped from the platform OF
his sleeping car, ahead of his staff
officers and grasped the hands OF
the "buddies" who had come to the
station to meet him.
Tomorrow the legion will select a
successor to Hanford MacNider, ma
tional commander of the organiza-
ton.
Late last night Major Hugh Scott,
a medical officer, whose home is in
Oklahoma City, and who is now
serving as executive officer to Colo
mel C. r. Forbes, director of the
United States Veterans bureau, told
a representative of the Associated
Press that Colonel Forbes decision
to return to Washington followed a
telephone conversation
with high officials in Washington in
close touch with the president. Ac-
cording to these sources, sources
reliable, the chief executive
replied that Colonel Forbes was at
liberty to use his judgment as to re-
here.
DR.. Scott late last night told the
Associated Press that he regarded
the legion as a dying organization
and that he believed that the last
blow had been administered to it
when President Harding vetoed the
measure for adjusted compensation
last summer.
Alvin NJ. Owsley, head of the le-
yion's commission on Americaniza-
ion, appeared early today to be the
candidate for national
commander. Supporters of William
F. Deegan, New York state comman-
Ter and the first candidate to publicly
announce that he was running for
he office of chief executive of the
egion, appeared discouraged by un-
confirmed rumors that the Missouri
delegation, and the predicted "mid-
vest coalition" had split, and that |
he south, with the possible excep-
ion of Alabama, was lining up in
avor of Owsley.
General Pershing was the chief |
speaker today. Committee reports
,pened a busy days session. After
/ meeting which lasted until two
,'clock this morning the Interstate
committee produced |
conservative report for the conven-
ion which avoided further condem-
lation of the, policy of Brigadier /
General Sawyer, head of the federal |
board. Delegations
rom fourteen states presented reso-
utions severely critcising him but all |

ment issued here last night, Attorney
General Daugherty, who stopped

been given any consideration.
