Statement on Rulr Occupation.

A resolution was passed by Alamo
Post of the American Legion during a
meeting Monday in the Gunter Hotel,
commencing the statement of Senator
Reed of PENNSYLVANIA, that the French
were justified in trying to enforce the
Versailles treaty by occupying the Ruhr
in Germany.
Forty members attended the meeting
and were addressed by G. L. Fulbre,
state adiutant of the American Legion.
f. L. Tibbitt. superintendent of the No-
cational Training School, West End.
made a talk. He said the school had
expended 100000 recently for new
buildings and equipment, and further
that an estimate of the money spent
by the school since its establishment in
San Antonio, amounted 10 possibly ST.
100000 or more. Mr.. Tibbtt reported
that there are now over 400 ex-service
men in the. school and that they are be-
ing taught eighteen different trades.
The next meeting of Alamo Post will
be held Monday at the Vocational
School. the members first meeting at

REPORT TO VATICAN
Not Believed Another Papal Delegate
Will Go TO Mexico.

As a result of the expulsion of Mon
signor Ernesto Pilippi, papal delegate to
Mexico, it is not probable that another
direct representative will be sent from
Rome, in the opinion of Bishop 4. J..
DrOssaerts of the San Antonio diocese.
Bishops in Mexico will be required here
after TO report to the Vatican. A writ
ten report must be made every five
years Of the conditions of each diocese,
and once in every ten years r report
must be made TO the pope by the bishop
in person.
The expulsion Of Monsignor Filippi,
Bishop Drossaerts believes. was due to
the fact that the present government in
Mexico is of radical tendencies and was
afraid that the papal delegate was con-
nected with the Fascist organization,
introduced into Mexico last December
Since the introduction of the Fascist
movement in Mexico, it has rapidly
grown in numbers.
Monsignor Filipp was expelled from
Mexico after he had presided at the
dedication Of a monument to Christ at
the Cerro del Cubilete in the State of
Guanajato. That part of the Mexican
constitution forbdding any church Of
fetal clad in the veStments of his Of
flee from taking part in any public
religious ceremony was invoked by Pres
ident Oregon as authority for the eX-
pulsion. At the time of the expulsion,
Bishop Drossaerts, in behalf of the
clergy of the San Antonio diocese sent
a telegram Of protest to the Mexican ex-
ecutive, declaring that the action was
illegal under the present laws of Mex

EXPLORER TO SPEAK
Nihjalmur Stefansson Will Lecture
Wednesday Night at Main Avenue.

Vilhjalmar Stefansson, the youthful
veteran of Arctic exploration, will ar
rive in San Antonio Wednesday night at
Z o'clock and will deliver an illustrated
lecture on the Arctic region at the
Main Avenue High School Auditorium
at 3 O'Clock the same night.
StefanssOn'S return from the stop of
the world" after stay of more than
five years, in 1918. Theodore Roose-
welt wrote him letter in which he made
the following statement: There are
few men in this world whom l envy
and you are one OF them" During the
five years that Mr.. Stefansson was in
the Arctic country, he had been given
up for lost, and when he returned with
a map of over 100000 square miles of
previously unknown country, he was
heralded as one of the greatest explOr-
ers by all of the geographical societies
and governments of the world.
Mr.. StefGnssons lecture is illustrated
prOfusely with stereopticon views, and
explains the remarkable methods en-
plOyed by this hardy young explorer
who learned TO live in much the same
manner as the natives. while exploring
the Polar territory. He demonstrated
that he could also live off of the land
and on Polar ice by travelling 600 miles
by sled. on "broken and melting ice. ="
feat that has probably not been equal
ed since the beginning Of the world.
Five geographical societies have dec
GRATED Mr.. StefanssOn and he has been
thanked and presented with medals by
many governments for setting what is
termed the absolute record" for sub
sistence in the Arctic country.
