MANY MEMBERS IF
 AMERICAN LEGION
 BELONG ID X. X. X.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 1S-De- velopments arising in the convention of the American Legion reveal that many delegates to the American Le- zion convention are members of the Ku Klux Klan, and trouble is antici- pated in case any resolution censur- ing or denouncing this unpatriotic or ganization are introduced on the floor of the convention.
 A purely American immigration bill administered solely by Americans, is needed in the United States, Secre- tary of Labor Davis told the delegates in a speech today, adding that Amer ica must be for America against the world.
 The committee on resolutions and American Legion policy are confront ed with a resolution which would place the Legion on record as con- demning the Ku Klux Klan and oppo- nents are attempting to reach an agreement in committee on resolu- tion so it will not reach the floor.
 Victoria threw the American Legion convention into an uproar this after noon smashing all precedents by in viting the order to meet on Canadian soil in order that American veterans might fraternize with the old Cana. dian comrades in arms.

You can depend on the smooth, sure action of Savage. It functions right.
 And accuracy-the most important thing in any rife. You can't beat a Savage for deadly, lasting accuracy.
 And it's light-a Savage high-power doesn't carry an extra ounce-but it's proportioned and hung to hold as steady as rock.
 This perfect balance is always the same. For the Savage magazine IS of the box type-full or empty-its bal ance is unchanged.
