Chicago, Oct s-(UP)-The fu- ture policy of the American Legion in respect to sponsoring legisla- ton affecting disabled war veterans is to be the outstanding subject decided by the 18th annual conven- tion of the legion, which opened here today.
 Action of recent department, or state conventions, as revealed by resolutions which they have adopt cd. is given as the authority for this prediction.
 The foreword of the annual re- ports, prepared at national head- quarters in Indianapolis, and to be read at the conventions, says, "Or- ganized attacks at the beginning of the year, tho national economy act and economic conditions, affected the entire program of the legion."
 Financial Condition Sound
 According to report, the organ ization has emerged from its most troubled year in a sound financial condition.
 In connection with legislation for disabled veterans, National Com mander Louis Johnson proposed a four point program as future poli- cies. The national executive com mittee, during its May meeting, unanmiously approved this pro- gram. Rehabilitation area confer- ences, covering every department in the United States, likewise approv. ed an additional four point pro. gram for submission to depart- ment conventions which endorsed 1t generally, looking toward similar endorsement by the national con- vention.
 Proposed Program
 The program as adopted by the conferences, follows:
 Il. That no war veteran dis reduction of those benefits granted such veterans in the World war veterans act, as in effect prior to March 20, 1888.
 "2. That disqualification under federal government auspices be af- forded all far veterans not dishon. orabfy discharged, who require hospital treatment and who are not able to reasonably pay for their treatment.
 "3. That perpetuation of service connection for all veterans as prop crly granted such service connec- ton under laws in existence prior to March 20, 1898, be recommend cd as an item of legion policy.
 'A, That the benefits provided for dependents of veterans as es- abolished in the World war veter- ans act be resumed and maintain ed as the governments policy and that in no event shall widows and dependant children of deceased war veterans be without govern mcnt protection"
 Claims Recovered
 According to the annual report of the national rehabilitation com- mittee, which is to be presented to the convention, a total of more than three million dollars In claims havc been recovered for disabled

oy ShtSu I EGsS Washington, October 3 --- (UP) presses have finally completed the Smithsonian Institutions annual report for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1932. The document takes longer to print than any other government publication. The green covered volume contains 496 pages.
 America is in debt to Briton for establishing the institution. James Smlthson. back in 1926, be- queathed his property to the Unit ed States to found lat Washington an establishment for the increase and diffusion of knowledge among men," Smithson's beQuest was 104.960 pounds, eight shillings.
 The United States failed to get all of that amount at first. how ever. The institution's latest re. port says that the sum of 5,015 pounds was withheld during the lifetime of Madame De La Batut." There is no attempt to explain who the madame was, but after she died the 5,015 pounds was sent to America. ..,t.
 Smithson was Q famous British chemist, the illegitimate son of the duke of Northumberland and Eliz- abeth Mary Hungerford, great gtandniece of Charles Duke of Somerset. He was said to have first offered to leave his property to the British government.
 The will stipulated that the prop erty should be bequeathed to the United States only if his nephew. Henry Hungerford failed to have offspring.
 Smithson died in Genoa, Italy, in 1929. Many years later when the cemetery was destroyed to make way for public buildings, the in- stitution removed the body to America. It now lies in a crypt at the museum.
