At Convention At Dover Last Week

Major R. R. Kenney was elected
Commander of the Department of
Delaware, the American Legion, at
the fifth annual convention of that
organization held in the State House
at Dover. The selection of Major
Kenney was unanimous there being
no other candidate for the office.
About seventy-five LegiOnaires at
tended the Convention representing
Posts from Wilmington, Dover, Mid
dletown, Smyrna, Harrington, Mil
ford, Milton and Laurel. The sessions

sent the State Department at the an
nual National Convention to be held

portunity of the times, and to make
the American Legion a forceful or
ganization for right. There were no
factions and no parties. There were
no chickering's and petty disagreements
to interfere with the real purpose and

spirit that brooded over the begin
nings of the American Legion and the
forces that led to its organization were
in evidence in the Convention. Al
felt that the day had been we'll anC
proftably spent.

BOWERS BEACH MEN IN JAIL
Men Taken At Kent's Popular Bayside
Resort Big Thursday Plead Guilty
In United States Court

Judge Morris in United States Dis
trict Court at Wilmington Tuesday of
last week said that the Volstead act
was a valid law and that the burden
placed on innocent people by those
who violate the law was not imposed
by the court, but by the action of the
defendants. The court made this state
ment in passing a sentence of two
months in the workhOuse on George
Hazel, a young farmer of Bowers
Beach, who was charged with selling
liquor.
Hazel was represented by William
Salisbury and while he entered a plea
of guilty he asked for the mercy of
the court. Hazel was accompanied
to court by his wife and a small child.
Mrs. Hazel wept as sentence was pro-
nOunced and had to be lead from the
courtroom.
Ira A. Melvin, prohibition agent,
testified against Hazel saying he paid
him $4 for a quart of whiskey on Au-
gust 9 (Big Thursday at Bowers
Beach.
Sentences ranging from two to four
months in the workhOuse and fines
totaling $4OO and costs were imposed
on four men charged with violating
the Volstead act at the "Plead Guilty
Day" session of the United States
District Court on Tuesday.
The majority of the defendants
were arrested at Bowers Beach, on
Thursday, August 9, by Agents Mel
vim and Washburn, of the Federal
prohibition forces.
Sentence was deferred in the case
of one man, Charles J. Bowden, of
Philadelphia, however, Judge Morris
instructing United States District At
toney Hughes to ascertain if state
ments made by the defendants that
others were selling liquor at Bowers
Beach and that many persons went
there to purchase liquor were true.
Judge Morris in deferring sentence in
this case informed Mr.. Hughes that
he looked to him to lay any informa-
tiOn he may gather of people who
know better than to purchase liquor
inducing persons to sell them such.
BOwden, according to Agent Melvin
sold the Government agents two
quarts of liquor, one for $4 and an
other for Sc. Bowden caused a smile
in the court room when he Informed
Judge Morris that he, BOwden, sold q
good grade of liquor. In his own de.
Tense BOwden said he lost money last
year at Bowers Beach in shipping FISH
and this year he thought he woulC
make up his loss by selling liquor
He sold only $23 worth, he said, hav
ing given most of his liquor away.
Froney Scott, of Marcus Hook, Pa
who pleaded guilty to a charge o
selling whiskey at Bowers Beach, wa
sentenced to four months in the work
house.
Joseph Smith, owner of a 4O-acr
farm, near Bowers, was sentenced t
two months in the workhouse on
selling charge. E. E. Berl, attorne
for Smith, pleaded for his client, say

James Clark, young son of Mr.. and
Mrs. John Clark, of Delaware City,
was struck by an automobile truck
Wednesday afternoon while he, with
a number of other boys, was playing
in the street in front Of the school.
He was slightly bruised about the
body and cut under the chin so that
stitch or two had to be taken by
DR.. w. w. Ellis to whom he was
taken for treatment. The truck was
from Wilmington and the driver was
in no way to blame for the accident
as he was running very slowly past
the school and did not see the boys
when they hung on to the rear of his

sweets for awhile, dress as warmly as
possible, avoid any undue exposure

Rheumatism is caused by uric acid

generated in the bowels and absorbed
into the blood. It is the function of
the kidneys to filter this poison from
the blood and cast il out in the urine;
the pores of the skin are also q means
OF freeing the blood of this impurity.
In damp and chilly, cold weather the
skin pores are closed. thus forcing
the kidneys to do double work; they
become weak and sluggish and fail

FIGHT OVER NEW
SPLITS RANKS Of
c. O.P. IN INDIANA
Pressure Borne on Harding
For and Against Cabinet
Jobs for Senator.

The fight over the proposed appoint
ment Of Senator Harry S. New to
the Presidents Cabinet, which threat
ems to split the Republican party in
Indiana, continued today as friends
and opponents Of New concentrated
their efforts TO produce a barrage Of
opinion in the form Of kilograms to
President Harding.
Friends were working on the Re
pubHcans Of the Indiana House of
Representatives seeking them to
telegraph Endorsement Of the Indiana
Senator. Twenty-one of the thirty
two Republicans in the Senate have
taken this action.
Both sides are being led to some ex-
tent out Of the Federal building.
where officer holders owe their jobs
either to Senator New or to Sena tor
James E. Watson. All doubt that
Watson and his friends are leading
the fight against New has been dis
PEELED. The question has resolved It
self into one OF whether, if Senator
New is appointed TO the Cabinet,
Watson can control the Indiana dele
gates for inseh and against President
Harding in the next Republican ma
tional convention.
Extremely active in behalf OF New
is Bert c. Morgan. Federal prohibi-
ton enforcement officer for the State.
Just as active in opposition is NJ. Burt
Thurman, collector of internal reve
nues. The former was appointed on
recommendation of New and the lat
ter on recommendation of Watson.
Lawrence Lyons is opposing New on
the ground that his appointment would
split the party.
Governor McCray insisted he is tax
ing no part. but he never has Leen
known to oppose his friend and fO--
mer campaign manager. Lyons.
Thus far no indication has come to
Indiana as to what effect, if any, the
bombardment is having on President
Harding.
Challenging the right Of any one
person or group to speak the
sentiment Of his community on News
appointment and expressing con-
fdence in the Presidents ability to
make just decisions, thirty operators
on the Indianapolis livestock ex-
change, acting individually, have
wired the President their endorsement
OF News appointment.
