Order Gives Non-Ex-Soldiers
an Edge Over Disabled,
Says Lloyd Wymer

The Disabled American
Veterans of the World War
will continue a hot fight
against what they term dis
elimination against veterans,
in the order of Lieut.. Col.
U. S. Grant, 3rd, slashing pay
of all guards of public build
ings by 13 per cent.
Replying to their protest. the
director Of Public Buildings and
Public Parks yesterday refused to
modify his order which. the vet
erans' organization says, Illegally
reduces the Army retired pay and
disability compensation which so
per cent Of the guards receive as
veterans.

compensation illegal, saying:
"In other words, your order
alIOcated to nOn-veterans dam
ages paid because Of disabilities
incurred in line Of military
duty. A nOn-veteran, by serv-
ing on your guard force, is thus
paid more because there is on
the force q man who was in
jured during the war and who
contributes to this increased

For Hard Coughs or
Colds That WorryYou

Creomulsion is made to give supreme
help for coughs or colds that worry you.
It combines seven helps in one-the best
helps known to science. It is for quick
relief, for safety.
But careful people, more and more,
use it for every cough that starts. No
one knows where a cough may lead. No
ono can tell which factor will do most.
That depends on tho type Of cold.
Creomulsion costs little more than
lesser helps. But it means the utmost
help. And it costs you nothing if it fails
to bring the quick relief you seek. Your

It is easy to escape from a
submarine, even though it is
disabled on the oceans bed a
score fathomS below the surface.
This was demonstrated at the
Washington Navy Yard by a
Times reporter who, equipped
with the Navy's latest model
water lung" made an escape"
from the experimental tank
under conditions similar to those
found aboard wrecked sub
marine.
The incident, arranged to show
the foolproof qualities of modern
submarine escape devices, was
directed by Lieut.. Norman s.
Ives, former commander Of the
experimental submarine S-4 and
now skipper" Of the Navy's
Diving School here, and Chief
Torpedoman Fred G. Michels.
INSTRUCTIONS
"Take it easy now. Make
sure your mOuthpiece fits, grip
it hard, and just breathe nat
urally. Never mind your nose,

that"
Those were all the instruc-
tions Chief Torpedoman j. B.
Crombie gave the nervous re-

Westerner For New Legion Commander
Nevada Again Brings to the Front the Name of George
 w. Malone for That Office

Carson City, New. Aug 16-An- nouncement of the unanimous en- dorsement of George W. Malone for the national commandership of the American Legion by the depart ment of Nevada again brings to the front the name of this nation ally known legion leader who was prominently mentioned for the high honor at the Detroit conven- ton last year but withdrew his name prior to the nomination.
 Malone, who is a member of Capitol Post No. at Carson City. received the unanimous endorse ment of the department of. Nevada at it 1892 convention and a vigor- ous campaign committee has been functioning in his behalf.
 The states making up the inter- mountain area have never been honored by the selection of a na- tional commander from their re- zion and in fact the entire western area, of eleven states, has had but one national commander during the fourteen years of the Legion's existence, that falling to John R. Quinn, of California, who headed the veterans organization in 1923.
 Malone has been very active in national affairs of the American Legion and has been on the nation- al executive committee more than a third of the time since the or ganization of the Legion. He has served at national vice-commander and has served two terms as na- tional committeeman from Nevada. His record appearing in the 1892 addition of Who's Who in .Ameri- ca" gives him national recognition.
 Malone has had extensive experi- ence in matters affecting the well
 fare of World war veterans and ha!

 Leaders To-day

garding the filing of delegates with the secretary of the state central committee.
 Mayor Hayes, who left this-after- noon for the peace barley between the "Old Guard" and "'New Guard" was prepared to align with the former and to. demand at least three places on the state ticket to be nominated next month at the democratic state convention in New London. He, like the rest of the democratic leaders throughout the state, favors Governor Wilbur L. Cross for renomination. As for the rest of the ticket. 1t is felt that Controller Leary should be nom- mated for lieutenant-governo once more in view of his excellent run two years ago and that two other places should be given the "Old Guard" Governor Cross, heading the ticket, is considered a "New Guard member. Therefore, a fifty-f fifty break on the, head of the ticket, with Controller Leary nom- mated for lieutenant-governor is wanted by the "Old Guard".

THE PAVING OF
 FREIGHT STREET Work Held Up Until After American Legion Par
 ade Next Saturday WORK HALF FINISHED

Workmen engaged under the direction of the street department have completed the job of paving the south side of Freight street. from Meadow street to the railroad overhead pass. Superintendent of Streets Thomas J. Fleming in- spected this work to-day and after approving of the. job announced that operations. on the northerly side of the thoroughfare will be held up pending the completion of the American Legion conventio1 which takes place here during the latter part of the week.
 Superintendent Fleming ex- plained that there will be much traffic over Freight street for the rest of the week and that the street department does not wish to hinder passage through one of the city.s most important highways during this period.
 After the legion convention is completed on Saturday plans will be imme ediately started for the paving of the northerly side of Freight street, from Meadow street to the railroad overhead pass. This work will take about a week. As in the case on the southerly side of the thoroughfare, the city will turn the Belgian blocks over on their sides, pour cement in between them and then roll asphalt on top.

WHEN WOMEN WORK

Stroller's Weekly: Dozens of COM
municatlons are received by Stroll
er's each week on pertinent topics,
but without exception they are
written in SO hostile and bitter a
spirit that it is unsafe and unfair
TO publish them. Invariably they
mention names and indulge in per
sonalities SO obnoxious to public
good that we are forced to refrain
from their publication, no matter
how brilliantly written.
Many OF these articles severely
condemn men who allow their wives
to hold down job, while other wo-
ing for work.
They look to Stroller's to give
an opinion upon a subject as old
as the world and one which has
been discussed pro and con by the
ablest economists of the times. We
confess the problem too abstruse
for US, and therefore refuse to take
sides in a question which has been
before the ablest men of the world
for centuries.
It seems to settle down to the
question of whose OK is gored. The
farmer who has his wife help him
in his laDors thus shutting off
employment for farm hand,
roundly criticises the man in town
whose wife works equally as hard
to help pay for some real or i'm
aginary necessity. The man in
town whose wife works eighteen
hours a day at cooking, baking and
washing does not seem to realize
that his wife would prefer lighter
office work, or that she is shutting
out the employment of cooks, bak-
ers, and washerwomen. The laborer
whose wife waits on the table to
help exc out his scanty earnings
believes she should do so, but con-
dennis the federal employee whose
wife does likewise. The objector
forgets that a different status in
society makes for a different scales
of living, and that the one is as
hard up and short of cash as the
other. Even the rich have their
troubles, it is said.
Personally, we believe it to be an
individual problem. The woman
who wants to work will not be de-
MED, so why fuss about it? The
man whose wife holds down a lu-

THE HIRED MAN TRICK

Here is a fable: Once upon a time
farmer had a hired man who tried
TO make himself popular by treating
his employer. Sometimes this liberal
spending young man would take his
boss on a veritable spree that cost
many dollars. Came a day when the
farmer discovered that the money
came from his own pockets. The
crafty hired man had access to the
old sock in which the farmer kept
his cash.
