Mexican Beauty is Questioned in Schick Mystery
Saxony Openly Defes
Present German Regime
BY CARL D. GROAT,
United Pres Staff Correspondent

BERLIN, October 18.-The rad
ical minister president of SaXony,
Ii. Zeigner, today openly defied
the demands of the federal die
tator of the Dresden district, Cen
eral Meuller. He opposed answer
ing the general s letter demanding
the Saxon cabinet disavow the
fiery speeches of Saxon Finance
Minister Boettcher.
Zeigncr declared in the diet today
he was ready to fight for Dictator
ship Of the proletariat.
Zeigner read the letter from Gen
eral Mueller demanding disavowal
to the diet, asserting he objected to
such attempts at interference with
his government.
Although he swore allegiance to
the constitution, he said the rights
guaranteed by the constitution had
been broken and that he was pre-
pared for struggle if it became
necessary.
Mueller S letter, while making no
definite threat, firmly demanded a
reply by II clock today, stating
Z. .uneouivocalv whether ''the
Saxon ministry rs whole Identifies
itself and is in agreement with the
letter and spirit of Finance Min
lister Boettchcr or whether the
Saxon government is willed to act
against the utterances of Finance
Minister Boettcher and III accord
apcc with my instructions.
Backed by Troops
This letter vas interpreted here
and in Dresden as stripping the
last vestige of covering from sheer
military dictatorship throughout the
country.
The general 5 demand was under

Practically every committee. com
mittee completed its report last
night or this morning and placed be-
fore the convention the task of
formulating its policy for the next
year.
1t was apparent as the reports
were submitted that the legion not
only will not abandon any of its
national policies, but that all those
conceived in previous conventions
would be reiterated with added
force and that many would be east
on Il more generous scale.
Maintenance by the United States
of a powerful army and navy, build
ing up its air force until it is second
to none, passage by congress OF an
adjusted compensation act, exten-
sion of Americanization work by
the legion and championship by the
ex-service body of five year ban
on all immigration, are problems
contained in resolutions which the
convention is expected to approve.
Klan Action To-day
The resolution bearing on the Ku
Klux Klan will come up for final
action by the committee today, it
was learned.
The resolution, as now framed,
does not mention the khan, but con
demns any secret order using masks
as part of its rites and which fos-
ters sectarian, racial or similar pref
udices.
John n. Miller, chairman of the
resolutions committee denied reports
that the committee had agreed to
bring the resolution to the floor of
the convention by vote of 81 to
20.
The rules committee disposed of, a
controversy in the Missouri dele
CATION over voting by proxy when
it sustained the ruling of the judge
advocate general of the legion that
such votes are contrary to the legion
constitution. The convention s ses-
sion yesterday was curtailed by this
dispute, but now that it is settled
the general body can proceed un-
hampered with its business.
Today's session is expected to
continue until all resolutions and
reports ready for action have been
disposed of. Samuel Gompers, pres
ident of the American Federation
of Labor, is to be the convention
speaker today.

SHELL TANK CAR
CUTTING BUTTON
WRECKS FORD

That a five passenger Ford more
or less means nothing in the life of
n big gasoline tank truck was plain
lv demonstrated when flivver,
driven by Scout Executive S. L. Me
Crory was badly damaged by Shell
Company truck near the intersec
ton of Fifth and State streets this
morning.
McCrory had left mis- ear parked
in front of the postoffice near
State street. When he started to
back out, he declares he looked up
Fifth street and saw nothing coming
on his right. He started slowly in
reverse, and before getting yard
from the curb was crashed into by
the big Shell oil truck which, ac
cording to the statement of a num-
ber of witnesses, was headed east
on State street and which swung
sharply into Fifth at the corner,
cutting on the wrong side of the
button at the intersection.
The truck hit the Ford with a
crash which brought people out of
the nearby buildings, and which
broke one of the small ears rear
wheels into splinters and .dented
and crushed the rear corner of the
tonneau. The truck was not dam
aged. McCrory escaped uninjured.
