NEBRASKAN is
REAL HERO OF
LEGION PA".LEY
Bonus Foe Sacrifices Com
mander Post Chance in
Hopeless Fight.
BY MAX STERN
Times stan Writer

PORTLAND, Sept. l4-The hero
of this crucial Legion convention
did not come from Washington, but
from the prairies of Nebraska.
He is Sam W. Reynolds, AZ, a
handsome, gray-haired coal mer-
chant, who today is leading the lost
cause of opposition to the s2,400,-
100000 cash bonus payment and
sacrificing his personal ambition in
the hopeless fight.
Reynolds is one of the four lead
ing candidates for national COM
manders.
Even as the only anti-bonus cam
didate he will start Thursday with
the largest single bloc of votes.
Reynolds began his fight this year
against the bonus at the August
Nebraska department meeting
where he was acknowledged leader
In face of farm and city distress
the Nebraskans voted against the
bonus and promised Reynolds to
go over the top" with him here.
bidHe OH OOusICSounCH
This whole bonus drive was
started and is being kept up by
handful of forty to fifty demagogic
congressman" Reynolds said today.
The legion leaders don't want 1t.
They have to go through because
these congressman stirred up the
state departments to demand it.
1.-THE American Legion is at the
crossroads today.
THE cost of veterans legislation
has reached a point where Is per
cent of federal expenditures goes for
this purpose.
I'VE veterans make up less than
per cent of the population; the
other SO per cent mean business.
unless we keep our record clean
and help stop this mounting cost
of veterans legislation, l say to
the legion, look out.
Resents PanhandIer Cry
In the past our victories have
been won not because of our million
members, but because our cause was
just. Our future record must give
the lie to the cry of panhandler.' "
1t is true that the resolution due
to pass by at least 10 to l urging
full payment of adjusted service
certificates" is not generally popular
among delegates here.
It is estimated that so per cent OF
them personally are opposed to it.
Their departments having instructed
them, they are left with no alter
native.
The subcommittee on legislation,
it developed, was about to urge a
modified bonus based upon need.
Representative Wright Patman
talked the subcommittee into the
straight bonus demand, and this
was passed by a divided vote of
to 4.
'Censure Hoover Move Grows
Reynolds, who promised to take
the floor to fight the resolution, was
given slight chance of winning COM
membership. The honor seemed to
be within grasp of three-Frank H.
Belgrano California banker; George
w. Malone, Nevada state engineer;
Louis A. johnson, wealthy West Vir
ginia lawyer, with the latter in the
lead
The "censure Hoover" movement
was credited with a signal victory
by George Brown of Pennsylvania,
member of the resolutions commit
tee, and others of his delegation.
Brown said that a subcommittee
headed by Clyde Edgar of New Jer-
sey had agreed to adopt a resolu-
ton regretting that the administra-
ton found it necessary to evict the
bonus army. .-..

Better Driving
 Practices Sought
Commissioner StoeckeI Issues aIindbook Seeking
 Cooperation Between His Dept and Operators

"A plan designed to link the inc dividuaI motor vehicle operator more closely with the department of motor vehicles in an effort to better the driving practices of all who participate in vehicular tfaf- fic was disclosed to-day by Com missioner Robbins B. stosckei in announcement by him of a new handbook on motor vehicle laws now ready for distribution.
 Supplementary to the similar program begun early in the year with owners and operators of com mercial motor vehicles. this new cooperative movement is inAugu- rated to include all who take part in traffic as owners or operators, especially those with passenger cars. It has as an accompanying feature the direct invitation of the commissioner to everyone to be- in identifying persons who, for one reason or another, contribute to the danger of travel by motor Ve- hicle.
 Tn the solicitation of complaints Mir Stoeckel makes it clear that the department "doee not want petty cases; 1t wants real ones." He says, further, in the foreword; "The department pledges it's cooperative assistance to remedy conditions, to consider carefully the individuals whose conduct comes under it's scrutiny and through it's various and sundry means of approach, to apply correction as seems neces- sary."
 Commissioner stceckel refers to the complaint form. which is printed as a part of the booklet for guidance of those who would volunteer in the program, as "an opportunity for each individual to report reckless driving offenses as noted" Of this plan he admonish- es citizens as follows:
 "The spirit behind each report ought to be one of constructive criticism devoid of personal spite or bad temper. The ofiicer who reports an offense should be sure that it is an offense of the kind which reflects either lack of knowl. edge to an extent which constitutes disregard of other peoples rights, or wiiful disobedience. If the same spirit a1imates the individual and complaints can be sent in in sufficient quantity to constitute "a source of information about condi- tions, then the whole subject of frequency with which offenses are committed, plus the adoption of corrective methods in determining fitness of the offenders. will be covered much more completely than Is now possible"

Tis to put the laws and regulations before operators in abbreviated form as simple statement to en- able them to participate in traffic more safely through a complete understanding of rules of conduct specified by the state. Commis- sioner Stoeckel says in the intro. duction the idea is ''that the state, in order to secure better, more thoughtful, more considerate and careful operation, must deal with the individual. From a use of the booklet 1t is hoped and expected that direct attention may, be drawn to the minimum of knowledge which is required"

JAPANESE FAIL TO HALT RAIDS
 IN MANCHURIA
Old Chinese Troops Join Forces With Former
 Enemies

Changchun, Manchukuo. = Last September Japanese troops seized Mukden, important city served by the Japanese controlled South Manchuria railroad. Inability of Chinese to control bandit activities was given as the reason.
 Chinese, attempting to defend other areas, were driven out. Seven months later the positions were re- versed. with Japan defending the Independent state" of Manchukua and Chinese troops attacking.
 In 1929, bandits-mostly recruit who poured into Manchuria--en- gagged In 36S raids in the Japanesn railway zone, killing 24 persons.
 When Japan ostensibly to con. trol ouch raids, started the move. ment that resulted in establish. ment of the Manchu republic. they failed to halt depredations.
 Sharp Incrcasc
 Instead, raids showed . sharp in crease, as entire armies of Chinese soldiers joined the righteous army" the fred spears" the ''ionx swords" and the other bandf, groups.
 The bandit strength before Chi. i1ese soldiers added to their forces was estimated at 17,0O0 in the Mukden area, and around 10000 in each of the other provinces They preyed on a territory of 3S3,- poo square miles, with 30.00O.000 population.
 The 24 dead of 1929 would not make the total casualties of sim gle engagement to-day--and raids are daily affairs. Added to the esti- mated 50,000 outright robbers there are entire armies of regular ly-enlisted Chinese soldiers who did not retreat to China proper with Chang Hsueh-liang.
 Various Commands
 In Kirin province, striking at unprotected cities and retreatiny when Japanese and Manchukuoan forces arrive with their bombing airplanes and armored cars, are two armies, General Ii Tu com inands 10000 men. General Ting Chao has 1e,00O. With Hsi Hsia. governor of Kirin province for the independent state,' they were subordinhtes of Chang. Now they are Hsl's mortal enemies.
 In the .Harbin area is Ii Hai- ching with an estimated 10000 trained soldiers. Elusively moving over Manchuria are 12I0O0 under Wang Te-lin.
 Huang Hsien, police chief of Mukden under Chang, commands yet another army.

Hoover Moving Along to Renomination-Has ol
 Delegates Pledged

WASHINGTON, March 28.-The Easter lull in the Presidential dele- gate picking by the voters, finds Gov. Franklin D. Rooseyeslt car- rying by far the largest basket of votes for the Democratic noinina- ton.
 President Hoover is rolling along toward renomination with only two out of ninety three delegates so far opposed to him.
 The past week saw Gov. Roose- welt score heavily in the South's first Presidential primary, Georgia assuring him the States 28 votes to bring his total to 85.
 The only thing now worrying the Roosevelt supporters, now that he has shown his vote getting ability in the North, West and South, is his second choice strength in States with favorite sons, where unin- strueted delegates are in the mak- ing and which is highly important in a convention where a two-thirds rule prevails.
 The action of United States Seia ator Albin W. Barkley, of Kentucky, however. in declining the support of his State delegation and asking it to back Roosevelt gives consid- erable comfort to the New York Governors sponsors. They hope other favorite sons will follow Bark ley's lead.
