SERVICE DIED FROM PRACTMr EVERY SIAIf 1 UNION GATHER ANNUAL LEGION National Com m a n d e r in R e p o rt D e clares First D uty is to D isabled W a r Veterans— W h o l e City in G a la Attire for Great O c c a s ion — B u d dies G reet Each O ther with E n thusiasm New Orleans, Oct 16.—The 'Ameri can Legion opened its fourth national convention here today. Meeting in a converted warehouse on the Mississip pi River front. 'Ireorated with flags of ihe Allied .natious and red, white and blue bunting, the legion heard the re ports of its national commander and adjutant. ' Practically every state in tho Union was represented when tho national convention met this morning, as we.ll as a number of territorial possessions and representatives of posts of the legion in foreign countries. Delegates from California, outstand ing contestant for the 1923 national convention, arrived here clad in broad brimmed black hats, red shirts and knee boots, the costume of the MOero. A dozen medleys, reminiscent of the war, floated through tlie hotel lobbies of New Orleans last night. From the “ Star Spangled Banner” to “Hail. Hail, the Gang’s All Here” none of tlie old favorites was forgotten. The veterans lapsed from English into French with joyous abandon. New Orleans, ancient center of .French civilization in tho new world resounded to the tramp of young men’s feet—also the feet o f the young women who served in the navy and the army nurse corps during the war, as well as the women, old nnd young, who “kept the home fires burning,\ four and five years ago, and are here today as delegates and visitors to thc convention of the American Legion auxiliary, composed of mothers, wives, sisters and daughters of veterans of the World War. Annual Report, A declaration that the American Legion regarded the interests of the disabled service man ns its first respon sibility and tliat “ with regard to the adjusted compensation act, we've just started to fight,” were outstanding points in thc report of Hanford Mac- Nider, nntional commander, delivered before the fourth annual convention of the Legion at its opening Session here today. “With regard to adjusted compen sation legislation,’’ the report declared, “ we've only just started to light Tho adjusted compensation legislation Is right— we know It is right—and right always prevails in America. “ A great, well financed attack by interests we cannot help but feel are sordid and selfish has given us one lit tle setback. But those who represent the people in Washington are with us by great majorities. No one man, un touched by tho war, without kith or kin to those who served—no one group, financial ,dr otherwise, can stand between the wishes of the Ameri can people and the fulfillment o f what they believe to be a just obligation. Voice of Men Who Served. “The Legion is recognized as the voice o f the men and women who- served. * * * It must be our duty to so build it that its tremendous power and possibilities may be directed that it shall be as it was, dedicated to the highest service—to our God and to our country. “ While in the early years of Legion activities men joined, some only- out of curiosity or because other joined, because in the great wave of enthn. siasm It was the thing to do—the mem bership now, in this fourth year, is the solid, substantial actual fighting gang, who intend to stay with it, to carry on through all thc coming years, that this Legion of ours sijall b.e the greatest ‘ outstanding symbol of service to all America. “ Forty per cent, of the Legion’s mem- < bership is in towns of under 2,500— ;• the highest type of American citizen-> ship. • ■ “The reports of the chairmen o f th*, j various' national committees will cover t * * concrete evidence o{'real eccom-X plishments. In carrying out the com-./ mands you gave them in your lasfc,-' convention. 'i Disabled Veterans First Duty. “I feel personally that tremendous J results for thc betterment of the dis abled veterans—our flrst duty always —have been attained. The national ' rehabilitation committee * * * forms a permanent foundation for all our future work for the disabled man. What Is more, it means that he is go ing to receive a square deal from tho . country lie fought for. “ Starting the day bofore Christmas with a successful appeal for bedside decisions to save the lives of men harassed with every wowy and choking with red tape, this committee built up a tremendous record of constructive service. You, by your membership, have given the Legion the power and prestige to carry on this work. “Let me acknowledge the financial assistance of the American Red Cross, which has made possible the main tenance of our liaison representative^ in every veterans’ bureau district. “Tho National Legislative Commit tee presents to you this year a record unsurpassed by any organization in the history of the nation. It lias been 6 s- 1 tablished as the greatest force for erm» structivo legislation for the nation and j for the returned service men.” Charge Made That Telephone Wire Into hall home is Being Tapped; Investigators Profess Ignorance New Brunswick, Oct 16.— (By the Associated Press 1 —A charge that the telephone belonging to Mrs Edward Wheeler Hall, whose husband wus slain with Mrs. Eleanor Reinhardt Mills, a choir singer in the < liur.’ li of which he was rector, had been tapped was the latest development ; nis.j in the development of the !•> iMe murder mystery This charge was made l.y Sally Peters, who lives m tne Halt household.
