Plan Mountain Camp

New York, Jan. Is Ranging the
beautiful slopes of the New York state
forest preserve in the Adirondacks,
thousands of tubercular ex-soldiers will
be restored to health by the American
Legion, whose plan for a mammoth
mountain camp is receiving generous
support. With an option on the Sl2j,-
900 estate of the late William Barbour
thirty miles from Saranac Lake, the
Legion's state organization, under VIII
liam +. Deegan, is on a Still-hunt for
the money necessary to establish the
camp and open its doors to the 10000
service men who cannot now find a
bed in hospital To bunk in log
lean-tos, free from "cooties' on the
edge of forest streams, to hunt rab-
bits, duck, grouse and pheaSants during
the open season, to have free use of the
motor boats and bowling alleys at
Barbour camp,-that will be the peace
time program for the disabled dough-
boys. With 10000 acres of virgin COun-
try at their disposal and the tonic air
of the mountains to breathe, the tuber
cular patients will find lie little short
of paradise. The estate is in perfect
order; barns are overlooking with
grain, a herd of cows yields plentiful
milk, the buildings are in good repair,
and permission has been granted by the
state to use the preserve as a hunting
range, with the right to erect lean
tos. Each Legion post in the state has
been given the chance to put up its
own lean-to, men of that post to be
given precedence in occupancy, Each
shelter is to cost $3.50 and to house
eight men. From the time a man en-
tiers the camp, clothing and food will
be provided, and physicians, who are
themselves ex-service men, will be al
ways in attendance. Those who are not
well enough to sleep on the preserve
will be housed in the main buildings at
TuDDer lake,

Addison County Farmers Invited

Every member OF the New England
Milk Producers Association IN Add
son county is invited to attend the an
nual meeting of the association to be
held in Boston January 81 and Febru-
airy l. Important questions and chang
es in policy are to be brought up Tor
discussion and it is important that as
many members as possible should at
tend. Reduced rates have been Sc
cured on all New England railroads
and the cost to any individual farmer
will be materially lessened. 1t is ex-
pected that this will be the largest
meeting in the history of the associa-
ton.
Among the important questions
which will surely come up are the
discrimination of the station charge,
minimum price for butterfat, rating
plan, relation of Boston and lesser mar
kets, and the biggest of all questions,
what to do with surplus milk. The need
for direct marketing facilities, control
led by the farmers is sure to be in
the forefront of the discussion and the
more members there are present the
better this discussion will be.

Corraling Draft Dodgers

Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. lS- The faith
er of his country probably would turn
over in his grave if he could see the
name of one George w Washington on
the latest draft evader list sent out by
the government. To corral the more
than 100000 slaCkers at large in the
United States is part of the 1922 pro-
gram OF the American Legion, but it
does not promise to be an easy task.
Another listed member of the Bergdoll
fraternity is Hoa Hum, who evidently
was too tired or bored to join up.
Charles Kaiser might have been eX
Cused for family reasons, but he did
not even show up before a draft board.
Another listed is Sam Browne, who dis
played no desire to wear the belt. An
especial effort probably will be put
forth to capture one Tom Mix, who
would have added vim and vigor to the
war had he participated. Grover Cleve-
land Johnson had more sympathy for
Bergdoll than he did for the late presi-
dent William Johnson, whose address
was given simply and clearly at Tight
Alley, probably got in and couldn't

ford MacNider. national commander
of the American Legion, will attempt
to obtain a decision favorable to ad-
justed compensation i'll the nationwide
referendum which has been called for
by the United States Chamber OF Com
merCe at Washington. This body went
on record against compensation at its
last annual meeting and has since wag-
ed a bitter fight on the Legion's bill, a
fight, however, in which many conStit-
uent chambers have not joined. In
such important cities as Cleveland, U,
Seattle, Wash, Portland, Ore, and
some twenty others, the chambers OF
commerce have repudated the posi-
ton of the national organization and
have come out strongly for compen-
sation That a mistaken idea of the

persistent attack on the cash bonus
clause is charged in a letter from Mac
Nider to the president of the Federal
chamber. MacNider points out that
the cash payment is only one of five
forms of adjustment that the bill pro
vides. and the least valuable OF all.
Cash, vocational training, paidup 20
year endowment insurance, farm or
home aid, and land settlement are the
five optional forms, MacNider con-
tends that the cash adjustment will not
be seized upon by an unreasonable per-
centage of ex-service men, and that to
assume so is to befog the issue. Expla-
nation of, and due emphasis upon, the
remaining four means OF adjustment is

Should Restrict Immigration


Washington, d. C.-Jan. Follow
ing conference with John Thomas
Taylor, ce-chairman of the American
Legion's legislative committee, SeCre-
tary Davis of the Labor Department
voiced highest approval of the Legion's
stand on restriction of immigration. A
thorough examination of all immigrants
at the port of embarkation and a sys-
TEN of registration after they arrive in
this country are recommended by the
Legion. Mr., Davis agreed that the flow
of immigration should be rigidly re.
stricted for a number of years, but said
that he was inclined to favor admission
under a new 90 per cent lay, rather
than absolute exclusion of all aliens for
five years, as proposed by the Legion.
Entrance on the basis of three per
cent of the various nationalities repre-
scented in the United States as of the
1890 census would materially reduce
the number now entitled to admission,
the Secretary said 1t would. also cut
the proportion of Balkan people eligi-
bic. An immigrant himself, Secretary
Davis processes to view the alien prob
lem sympathetcally. He is opposed
to excluding the higher type of immi-
grant. To carry out the spirit OF the
Legion's recommendation for close SUI
pervision of aliens after their arrival,
the Secretary said he favored regis
tration of all immigrants and payment
of an entrance fee of from $40 to S2j,
the money thus raised to be used in

immigrants.
