AURORA, ILL.,, May 21.-The Roose-
welt Aurora Post of the American Lee
gion yesterday adopted a resolution
asking President Hoover to take steps
for the cancellation or drastic reduc-
ton of European war debts to this
country.
The resolution, which was ordered
sent to the President, suggested that
certain great industrialists and others"
who made immense sums out of goods
sold at inflated prices during the war"
be made to assume in their income
taxes the Cancelled debts.
Cancellation of the debt, the reSo-

La TOILETTE URGES
SPECIAL SESSION
Senator Says Vastly Expand
ed Public Work Is Only
Hope of Jobless.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A vastly expanded public works pro-
gram, made possible by an immediate
special session Of Congress, was seen to-
day by Senator La Toilette as the sole
hope of avoiding the dire consequences
of a third Winter of unemployment for
many millions Of our citizens"
Speaking as chairman Of the Unem-
ployment and Industrial Sterilization
Committee selected at the recent Pro-
gressive Conference. the Wisconsin Re-
publican based his conclusions upon q
preliminary report by DR.. Isador Lubin,
chairman of the Conference Subcommit-
tee on Unemployment.
Sees 5000, coo JobIess.
1.-THE Federal Government alone can
meet the widespread distress which
the report reveals" La Toilette said.
AT the present rate OF industrial re-
vival the number of unemployed to be
provided for during the coming Winter
bids fair to remain close to the 5000, =
900 found by the Census Bureau In its
enumeration of last January"
The Senator said the report showed
little or no evidence that the remainder
of 1881 would bring sufficient improve
ment. At the same time, he continued,
"our municipalities are fast approach
ing exhaustion and many cities are al
ready experiencing difhculty In rem
deTing aid to their jobless citizens"
Finds Cities Depleted.
Virtually every city in the country
was declared to have experienced q
fall in tax receipts, indicating, La Eel
lette said, that city budgets would be
less able to cope with unemployment
this Winter. The situation was held
further complicated by the fact many
municipalities had sold up to their
limit of bonds and would be unable to
borrow further.
Unless the Federal Government
spends new" he asserted. 1.-THE cost OF
healing those injuries which are likely
to occur during the coming IL months
will be many times more than what
may be saved by our present policy OF
Federal economy.
"A special session Of Congress should
be called Immediately to relieve distress
among the unemployed Unless an extra
session is called there will be delay
of months before any action can be
taken to expand our public works pro-
gram"

I'LL volume with quotations from my
annual reports and from my hearings
before committees Of Congress In which
had been setting forth our lamentable
lack of artillery, the fact that 1t was
the most unsatisfactory feature Of our
military supply, and the long time that
would be required for the commence
ment OF deliveries upon any orders that
might be given in an emergency
As far back as January, 1908, stated
in my hearings before the Appropria-
lions Committee of the House, in re-
gard TO an item for field artillery in
the annual estimates: II would like to
say, in connection with this item, that
it Is a very important one. because this
material Is Of class that cannot be
procured on short notice. 1t takes q
great while to build these guns and to
build the carriages and to get the am
munition for them" / followed this
appeal up each year, and in my hear
ings Of January. 1911, said: Nothing
is perhaps more striking than that, as
We make some progress, 1t Is impressed
upon us how slowly we are going, and
how far we have yet to CO." And again,
on March IL, 1912, answered the ques-
ton of member of the committee:
Il do not think we could count on get
ting a battery delivered in less than a
year from the time the order was given"
The failure of response to these con-
tinued representations left us under the
necessity, described by Gen. PerShing
of securing from our associated powers
the greater part of the field artillery
requirements for our Army in Europe;
but his account does not state clearly
the manner in which this assistance
was obtained. It would be a natural

had been left to find his Army faced
with an impending shortage of essential
equipment, from which it had to extri-
cate itself as best it could by appeal to
the French authorities. Doubtless Gen.
Pershing did not intend this inference.
Held 3-Inch Guns Here.
The fact is that, before action by the
board of his staff officers whose ap-
pointment he mentions I had arranged
with M. Andre Tardieu. the French
high commissioner in Washington, for
the supply of the most important items
OF artillery equipment and ammunition
to our troops, as they should arrive in
France. When M. Tardieu Informed me
of the ability and desire of the French
government to supply this equipment.
the artillery of the LIST Division was in
process of loading on transports for
shipment to France, and had to make
quick decision relating to the confu-
