BY LILLIAN cox ATHEY,

A Ill doves are interesting and each
species has something very differ
ent in Its habits from the others. This
one was first noticed as an inhabitant
Of the United States in 1873 by George
B. Senr1e.t, who was travelling in the
valley of the Rio Grande in Texas.
The nesting time for this beautiful
dove is the latter part Of May in South
ern Texas. Many Of them come to
their favorite nesting grounds, and
their cooling ends only when the
shadows fall. The white-winged doves
are often found with the white-fronted
and are mistaken for them. Their
nests and eggs are very similar also,
which has been confusing to beginners,
trying to identify the birds as well as
their eggs.
The white-fronted dove builds q
rather fragile appearing nest, made Of
sticks and situated about 10 feet above
the ground on a limb of small tree.
When possible, this is placed where the
dense underbrush will act as a wall of
defense as well as curtain from the
gaze Of foes. Some cousins Of the
white-fronted are not air-minded and
make their sketchy cradles on the
ground.
Their are pair Of white, glossy
eggs. rather oval in shape, laid by the
mother and she alone incubates them.
When the twins are young, they fol-
low their mother as she goes foraging
for food. They cannot dy at this tender

from Central America, north to the
lower Rio Grande Valley in Texas, and
the doves only leave these homelands
when food is scarce.
When this dove is seen from some
distance it has been mistaken for .
pigeon. It is not q swift moving bird
and does not fear man unless expert
ences have aroused its suspicious. It
is capable Of running swiftly on foot If
it is not on the wing such a fast flyer,
and it knows how to hide under the
heavy underbrush. When you come
upon this dove and frighten 1t, the
whirring wings have q whistling sound
quite similar to that made by the
woodcock.
After domestic duties are over, the
white-fronted ooves lead rather soli-
tary life. Their deep-toned notes, heard
often, may be to communicate with
their friends not far away. These
sounds are sufficiently loud and clear
to betray their presence, which would
not otherwise have been known.

LEGION MARCHES
ON LOS ANGELES
Various Delegations Want
Convention to Back a
Multitude of Things.
3! the Associated Press.

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 1.-THE men
Who answered the call to arms two
decades ago are moving in on Los
Angeles from all parts of the Nation
for the goth annual convention of the
American Legion. The week of frolic,
reunions and expressions of the united
voice Of Legionnaires on the country's S
problems starts Sunday night with
religious-patriotic services and termi-
mates Friday with a review of the
United States Fleet and a war drill of
399 fighting naval planes.
A national scouting check on what
the various State department dele
cations want the national convention
to know and do reveals some interesting
sidelights.
Arkansas $50 visitors urge a uni
versal draft law to provide that money
as well as men be drafted in event of
war.
The District of Columbia delegates
would like to have Veterans of the
World War Memorial Auditorium" in
Washington, a national aviation day
August 19 on the birthday of Orville
Wright, and a national flag week
June 8-14.
Florida wants the convention to
condemn organizations ostensibly op-
Grating for world peace, but actually
seeking to change the social order and
government structure of the United
States.
Dunlap Is Candidate.
Georgia offers Edgar B. Dunlap Of
Gainesville for national commander
or Ed O'Connor Of Atlanta for vice
commander.
Indianans would have employers
give preference to citizens OF the
United States, especially veterans.
Kansas, sending Secretary Of War
Harry H. Woodring as a delegate,
opposes any move by the Government
raising immigration quotas.
Kentucky's party of $50 indorses a
university of the Americas" pro-
viding for exchange of students in
the two continents.
Louisiana, in addition to building
100000 in floats for the parade to
show what its State has, offers Alcee
Legendre of New Orleans for national
vice commander.
Maine sings its way Westward with
a popular delegate who Joined the
Navy at the age of Is, but when he
got sick the Navy doctors sent him
home-Rudy Vallee.
Massachusetts, Sends 3,200.
Massachusetts, sends an army of
5000 to seek the 1910 conventions for
Boston. 1t would have the conven-
ton voice the sentiment that "the
American Legion more firmly con-
denim all doctrines and influences
prejudicial to our present democratic
form of government, and more forcibly
combat all un-American propaganda,
activities and influences" and give
Government agencies, particularly the
intelligence services of the armed
forces, adequate funds to that end.

Housed. D.C.Committee
Free Of Partisanship,
Goal Of Randolph
Group Faces Loss Of
Two More Members,
Butes and Short
BY JAMES E. CHINN.

The House District Committee
today faced the loss of two more
members in the 10th Congress, con-
vening Tuesday, as Representative
Jennings Randolph, Democrat, of
West Virginia, the new chairman,
made plans which he hopes will keep
District legislation "out of politics"
during his regime.
The latest members reported to be
seeking assignments which would
automatically create the additional
vacancies are Representatives Dewey
Short of Missouri and George j.
Bates Of Massachusetts,, both Re
publicans.
Already there are six gaps in the
committee membership due to No.
vember election defeats and prior
designations. And just a few days
ago, Representative Jack Nichols.
Democrat, of Oklahoma, revealed he
planned to resign If successful in
his efforts to get post on the ex-
elusive and powerful Rules Com
mittee.
From present indications, Mr..
Randolph may start the committee
on its legislative grind for the DIS
trict with not more than 10 or II
veterans of former years. AS con-
stituted in the last Congress, the
committee had 81 members.
Representative Randolph told
newspapermen at the first press con-
ference he has held since agreeing
to take the Craftsmanship he in
tended to do everything possible to
make it strictly non-partisan COM
mittee.
"A committee which deals with
the legislative program of the Dis
trict should be divorced from parti-
sanShip which might affect the leg
islation it handles" he declared. II
feel very strongly on that subject,
and propose to keep the committee
non-partisan by seeking the advice
and counsel on all matters from the
Republican members as well as the
members of my own party"
Mr.. Randolph also said he intend
ed to cooperate to the utmost with
District ofdcials, and announced
that one of his first Official acts as
committee chairman would be to
confer with Corporation Counsel FL
wood H. Seal to discuss the legisla-
tive program to be recommended by
the Commissioners. That conference
is expected to be held before the end
of the week.
Representative Bates, although
only zone termer" on the commit
tee, was one Of its most active men,
bers, and took prominent part in
the bitter fight in the last Congress
which led to the death Of a bill that
would have legalized pari-mutuel
betting on horse races in the Dis
trict. AS Mayor of Salem, Mass, for
13 years before coming to Congress,
he likewise showed keen interest in
the financial problems Of the Dis
trict, and often deplored the fact,
too, that Congress had not delegated
to the Commissioners powers en-
joyed by most municipal authorities.
Only passive interest in District
Committee activities was shown by
Representative Short, however. At
the last session of Congress he at
tended but several committee meet
ings, although on the House floor he
was always among the first to de-
fend the District against attack.

A wreath of bay leaves bear-s
ing President Roosevelt's card was
