for help. And she fei! in love with
him.
Neal helped Martha search for
Betty and his friend" SPed6on
in San Francisco and farther
moth but without results. And
finally Martha decided that she
must not let her love interfere
with her better Judgment, so she
had Neal arrested charging hin
with being involved in the disaP-

Then she sped north, only 10

to as one of the outstanding argu-
ments against war, was dead to-

officers ward of Fitzsimons Gen
eral Hospital here since Armistice
Day, 1919.
Among the first to reach Bel
gian soil, Captain Lee was gassed
IN the big drive against linden
burg along the Somme. He was
brought to Fitzsimons Hospital the
first anniversary of the Armistice
and became the Institutions most
famous patient, having been visited
by such notables as General Per-
shing, Queen Marie of Roumania,
Patrick Cardinal Hayes and the
late President Harding.

LONDON, Oct. 10 0.N.S0.-We
are exceptionally pleased over the
cordial friendship shown by the
King and Queen to the Legion,
naires and their wives yesterday
morning in the state drawing
rooms of Buckingham Palace.
It left us with a lasting impress
sion of British friendship for our
country and our war veterans.
SINCERE GREETING
We have heard much Of the
Democratic manner of George and
Elizabeth, but we were greatly i'm
pressed as well by the sincere re-
ception they accorded our party.
Formalities were largely dis
pensed with. After our formal in
PRODUCTION to their majeSties we
retired to the blue room. Their
majeSties then talked to us indi-
vidually. The ladies were i'm
pressed by the charming gracious
ness Of the Queen, who was dressed
in a simple blue gown.
Their majesties talked on many
subjects. They told us of their
daughters, the two little princesses,
who are now visiting in Scotland
with their grandparents. They
were especially interested in con-
ditions in America.
They asked numerous questions.
showing they apparently have
great knowledge of our country.
1t was a great honor for me
to accompany Their MajestieS
around the horsehoe-formed blue
room. King George asked me a
number of questions about the
American Legion and the United
States. He inquired as to the
number of war veterans in our
country and the work the Ameri-
can Legion is doing for disabled
men in America.

BANKERS Farley
HEARS PRENTIS
FLAY new DEAL
.WadsWorth Is Cheered
By Trade Future

BOSTON, Oct. 10 Q.N.S).-A
slashing attack on policies Of the
National Administration was made
today by Henning W. Prentis, jr.,
Of Lancaster, Pa, before the Sec
ond general session of the Amer
lean Bankers convention in which
he outlined a nine.point program
to restore confidence.
This restoration could be made
through such means, he said, as:
Putting the governments fl
nancial house in order; revising
taxes so as to encourage new
ventures and the expansion Of
present enterprises; decentral-
izing government; liquidating
emergency organizations; plac-
ing the Administration of relief
in local hands; encouraging true
collective bargaining by requir-
ing equal responsibility on both
sides; quenching the fires Of
class consciousness; promoting
national unity; and exercising
all-embracing charity toward
ALL"
SEES HOPE FOR TRADE
Eliot Wadsworth, president of
the Boston Chamber of Commerce,
told the bankers he was optimistic
as to the future of American trade,
pointed out that America was we'll
equipped to dominate In this field
and warned against an isolation
policy.
An admonition to bankers to be.
ware of continuing to contribute
to inflationary practices by loosen
ing of credit terms and policies
lest they be placed under Federal
control, was voiced at the State
bank division meeting by H. M.
Chamberlain, of Salt Lake City,
Utah.
BRANCH BANKING HIT
Attacks on branch banking were
made by D. w. Bates, superin-
tendent of banks in Iowa, and
Robert H. Myers, vice president
Of the Merchants National Bank,
Muncie, Ind.
Bates asserted: Branch
banking on an enlarged scale is
not the kind Of banking system
we want in this country, is not
an improvement over out pres
ent dual system, is not a substi-
tute for the unit bank, out is in
finitely worse"
Myers asked the bankers if their
depositors realize that IAN extern
sion of branch, group or chain
systems may mean the removal of
banking control from their COM
munities into strange and remote
hands"

ATLANTIC CITY, Oct. 13 GN.
SO.-The Committee for Indus
trial Organization prepared here
today to continue its unionizing
campaign throughout American
industry after William Green,
president of the American Fedora
ton of Labor, refused its offer of
peace.
The C. I. o. leaders held strong
hope that their offer of reunion
for a combined American labor
movement would strike deeply into
the A. F. of L. rank and file, even
though the federation's alleged
Labor hierarchy" of leaders re-
main stubborn.
POINT TO LOSSES
They pointed to their ewn claim
of 100000 membership. achieved
in two years; to one of their re-
ports declaring the A. F. of L. has
lost 100000 members in year;
and to figures showing IAN over
whelming preference on the part
of American wage earnerS for the
industrial form of unioniSm."
The vote here on the resolution
inviting a committee of 100 from
the A. F., of L. to meet 100 Spokes-
men from the c, I. o. in confer
ence was unanimous. And when
John L. Lewis, chairman, summed
up and called for the vote, he was
bidding directly for the Fedora
ton ranks.
LEWIS STAND
IT believe this will receive the
endorsement Of the lay mem
bers," he said, "of the unions
affiliated with the A. F. of L.
Out in the communities there is
no difference between the men,
bers of the C. I. o. and those
Of the A. F. of L. They both
want increased living standards;
higher social status; more politi.
cal freedom, and greater op-
pc1tunity. They cling to the
same ideals"
