Legion Has Candidate for
Natl. Commander

One thousand Minnesota Ameri-
can Legion post commanders and
adjutants, at their recent spring
conference in Minneapolis, unani-
mously urged their former state
commander, Earl v. (Pat) Cliff of
Ortonville, to become a candidate
for Legion national commander and
pledged their support toward elect
ing him to that office at the Port
land Oregon convention Sept. 21-24.
Among those who sang the praises
of their comrade was the eloquent
voiced Stafford King who described
Mr.. Cliff as soldier, gentleman,
friend, tolerant, tireles, symathetic,
efficient, fully capable of ably rep
resenting the Legionaires of the
nation, yet so honest, so humble and
so sincere that any man, rich or
poor, could always feel sure of a
kindly hearing.
Among others seconding the reso-
luton which was originated by
James Pruett, of Rochester, were
Mrs. A. c. Carlson, of Willmar, Will
liam Mitchell, of Tracy, William
Fallon, of st. Paul, Oscar F. Young
dahl, Hugh Mag and Edwin L.
Lindell of Minneapolis, and Mrs. F.
c. Barnes, of Fergus Falls. Mrs.
Barnes suggested that those desir-
ing to support Comrade Cliff for
national commander arise - and
every delegate stood up in one
unanimous tribute to a beloved
buddy.
In addition to serving as post, dis
trict and department commander
and upon many state and national
committees, Mr.. Cliff now repre-
sents Minnesota on the Legion ma
tional executive committee and the
national rehabilitation body. His
now famous Minnesota Plan" of
holding local service schools all over
the state at which the hitherto dis
sallowed claims of veterans are re-
viewed by members of the Veterans
Bureau rating board and new evil
dence presented, was adopted ma
tionally at the Detroit convention
and Is now used by many other
states. In Minnesota alone in three
years it has resulted in securing for
the disabled more than $250000 that
they would otherwise have failed to
receive.

Many instances were cited of where
the men who risked their lives in
1918, now are unable to find work
and have no funds to feed and
clothe themselves and their famil-
les. Since congress last year made
it possible for veterans to borrow
so per cent of the face value Of
their certificates, Is per cent of the

"THOSE WE. LOVE" AND "BIRD OF PARADISE" NOW AT WARNER BROS STRAND

Exactly one month and one day after Mary Astor's daughter was born, Miss Astor returned to the studios to take up her career where she left off. Her first role since the arrival of Marylyn Thorpe is that of May Williston in "Those We Love- a screen version of the play by S. K. Lauren and George Ab- bolt which enjoyed long and suc- cessful run on Broadway. Those We Love" heads the double feature program at the Strand to-day and tomorrow.
 In the World Wide picture, Miss Astor plays the role of devoted mother whose affection for her boy Ricky, prevents her from walking out" on her husband when a com- bination of circumstances points to an affair between him and another woman. A needless lie, an erring conclusion-and what once was Q happy family is about to be broken up. However, the lads love for his dad is sufficiently strong to compel his mother to preserve their family unity-even in the face of sus- picion of unfaithfulness.
 In addition to Miss Astor, the cast of Those We Love" includes Kenneth MacKenna and Lilyan Tashman in featured roles; Hale Hamilton as a loyal friend of the family; Tommy Conlon in the part of young Ricky; and Virginia Sale
