RADIO IS USED BY LEGION
Widespread Membership Of Veterans
Organization Reached by Ma
tional and State Officials.

The voice of the American Legion
is being heard over the radio by men,
bers of the organization throughout
the country. Almost daily some Off
GER or Legion leader talks to the wide
spread membership of the veterans
association using the wireless tele-
phone as the means of dissemination.
This is made possible by the installa-
ton Of hundreds of receiving sets in
the homes of local Legion posts
throughout the country.
In practically every post may be
found some ex-service man who
worked with the wireless telephone
through the days of the war, or who
has become an ardent fan since the
broadcasting of regular programs
came into vogue. officers of the Lee
gion recognize this fact and are TAX
ing advantage Of the closer touch af-
forded them by means Of the --latest
miracle"
One of the first instances Of this
use by officers was the broadcasting of
National Commander Alvin Owsley's
Keynote speech" from Lincoln, Neb.
This was heard by Legionnaires all
over the country, some as far away
as the Atlantic coast.
State department commanders in
many instances are beginning to make
use Of this method to reach their men,
bers, many urging the installation Of
receiving sets for this purpose.
In the future further use Of the
radio is planned. The Decoration day
address of Commander Owsley in San
Francisco is to be sent out by
powerful station so that Legionnaires
In the West may hear the commander
at this time. At Kansas City, Mo-,
when new Legion home was dedi
heard by Legionnaires of five states,
who were asked to "stand by" at spe-
cial meetings to hear the Legion leader.
Followers of radio, who are active
DIN the Legion, predict that within a
short time all official utterances of
national officers of the ex-service
mems organization will be relayed by
radio to the more than. three-quarter
of a million members throughout the
United States. And because Of the
power Of many of the broadcasting
stations, Legionnaires in other climes
may soon be listening in" on what
their comrades at home in the states
are doing.

COOKIES FOR DISABLED MEN
One Hundred and Thirty Auxiliary
Units Of Kansas Make Regular
Donations to Hospitals.

A cookie-jar containing 1920 cook
les should satisfy the most ravenous
appetite.
That's the number of cookies pre-
pared by members Of the American
Legion Auxiliary Of Kansas for dis
abled veterans in hospitals at Kansas
City and Leavenworth. There are $50
units of the Auxiliary in Kansas. Each
unit prepares and mails II dozen cook
les to the hospitals every month.
The cookies are sent to the chief
dietitian of each hospital and she
places them in big jars in the corri-
doris. When the cookie Jar is set out,
the disabled men come from every
ward, on crutches, in wheel chairs, and
with canes rapping the floor, eager to
get a hand in the Jar.
Nurses say the boys reach around
the jar until they find the cookies
with nuts on them and fruit chopped
up on tine inside. The old-fashioned
fiat sugar cookies do not seem to be
popular.

1t is remarkable how many cases have
been reported similar to this one. Many
mothers are left in a weakened and
rundown condition after the birth of
the child, and for such mothers the care
of the baby is well-nigh impossible. Not
only is it hard for the mother, but the
child itself will indirectly suffer.

RECOGNITION Of
MEXICO NEXT
STEP
Coolidge Awaits Only Hughes
Formal Report to Resume
Negotiations.
By H. X. REYNOLDS.


The Mexican situation today had
settled down to- a point where the
next step was the Official announce
ment that the United States now
recognized, the Obregon government.
President Coolidge is not prepared
to authorize this announcement until
he has received from Secretary OF
State Hughes a formal report on
the recent negotiations at Mexico
City, but he has already been in
formally advised that there Is moth
ing to prevent the resumption OF
the diplomatic relations which were
broken off in May, 1920.
There was still some uncertainty
today as to what course would be
adopted by the State Department in
establishing political intercourse
with Mexico City.
May Wait for Senate.
It had been thought at first that
this would be accomplished either
through a Presidential proclamation
Of recognition or the appointment
Of an ambassador. but Administl a.
ton officials are now considering O
simple announcement Of recognition
either from the White House or the
State Department, and simultaneous
appointment Of charge d'affaires
to represent the United States until
Congress convenes in December.
Diplomatic appointments are sub
ject to confirmation by the Senate,
and although President Coolidge las
authority to make a recess appoint
nent while Congress is not In ses-
sion, he may decide not to designate
new ambassador to Mexico City
until the Senate is here to act upon
the nomination.
The American charge d'affalres in
Mexico City at present is George T.
SummcrlIn, and he probably will be
reappointed If this plan is carried
out, and it is likewise expected that
Manuel c.. Teller, the Mexican
charge d'affaires in Washington.
will remain here.
