Atlanta, Oct. 9.—Ratifidition of the
German peace treaty and league of
nations covenant without amendments
or textual reservations was asked of
the senate in resolutions adopted here
today at the annual reunion of the
United Confederate Veterans.
The vote on the treaty and league
of nations was an aye and no affair,
but no voice against adoption of the
resolution was heard. Payment by
congress of pensions to Confederate
veterans also was asked in another
resolution adopted. .
Officers of the organization were rer
elected as follows:
Gen. K. M. Van Zandt of Fort Worth,
Texas, commander in chief.
Gen. C. B. Vance, cotttftfarnder of the
army of Tennessee.
Gfn. Julian S. Carr of North Caro
lina, cmomander of the army or north
ern Virginia.
Gen. Virgil Y. Cook, commander of
the trans-Mississippi department.
Judge J. T. Goolriek, Fredericks
burg, Va., was elected to represent
the United Confederate Veterans at
the unveiling of the Stonewall Jack-
son monument in Richmond, October
11.
N. B. Forrest of Biloxi, Miss., grand
son of the great Confederate cavalry
leader, was elected commander in
chief of Sons of Confederate Veterans
today.
The request that the federal gov
ernment pay pensions to former Con
federate soldiers was made on the
ground that $68,000,000 worth of cot
ton was illegally confiscated by the
United States government during and
after the war and never paid for,
that the South for more than 30 ears
has paid out millions of dollars to
ward pensions for federal soldiers
and that the federal government owes
that the South for more than 30 years
for captured property which was sold.
Requests that congress appropriate
$.10,000 to complete memorial arch in
Vicksburg, Miss., national park, and
that the name of ' the ‘*ClTil War 7 / be
formally made “Confederate war” al
so were made in resolutions adopted.
Replying to the greeting sent by
Henry D. Lindsley, national chairman,
on behalf of the American Legion, the
Confederate veterans today concluded
their telegram with the following:
"The veterans of the Southland stand
with you of the world war ready for
service to our united country.”
The veterans also voted to accept
the Invitation of the American Legion
to send delegates flom each division
to the legion’s convention in Novem
ber.
Future Confederate veterans reun
ions will be held in the fall instead of
summer, it was decided today. The
present reunion is the first to be held
in fall in many years.
Support of the veterans for estab
lishment of a civil and highway engi
neering school at Washington and Lee
University to be named the Robert E.
Lee school of engineering was pledg
ed by the reunion.
A telegram from Secretary Tumulty
was read before the convention ex
pressing the appyeciation of President
Wilson for the sympathetic resolu
tions adopted and forwarded to him
at the opening session.
Pledges to continue their care of
the graves of Confederate veterans in
stead of turning the work over to the
federal government as has been sug
gested, were made today at the ses
sions of the Confederate Southern
Memorial association. Resolutions al
so were adopted looking to increasing
the memlbership of the association and
adding new chapters.
Miss Mildred Rutherford of Athens,
Ga., a noted Southern historian and
educator! presented to the veterans to
day a series of questions to be applied
to text books before adopting them
in Southern schools and colleges. All
the questions dealt with elimination
of matter prejudicial to the “Lost
Cause.” Much misinformation has
been and still is being spread in books,
she said, and added that before the
war General Lee had virtually freed
his slaves. General Grant, she cdn-
tinued was a slave owner until the
very time the slaves were freed by
Lincoln’s proclamation.
In an effort to prove that the cause
of twar was not the desire of Southern
people to continue slavery? Miss Ruth
erford asserted that there were 300,000
slave holders in the Union army and
200,000 in the Confederate army.
Memorial services in honor of the
Confederate dead were held today at a
joint meeting of the veterans and
auxiliaries. Sacred and Southern
music featured the services and the
Rev. J. W. Bachman, of Chattanooga,
82 years of age, chaplain general of the

the Western department, and repre
sentatives of the city’s government.
“It was a great trip. I enjoyed it
immensely," said Lieutenant Maynard,
on landing. Both members of the
plane’s crew looked tired and weather
beaten but they smiled happily and
weathered the barrage of compliments.
Capt Harry C. Drayton, Maynard’s
nearest rival, on the western flight
left Battle Mountain, (Nev., in an ef
fort to reach Reno before nightfall,
but was forced down by engine trou
ble at a ranch at Lovelock. The ra

Francisco just before 10 a. m., Eastern

three days plus nearly nine hours for
their trip, impeded somewhat by snow
storms in the Rocky Mountains. Fol

heard from early tonight.

“We will forget,” he declared, “all
the bitterness and desolation, the
privation and the suffering of the war
and we will remember only the truth

—It is a source of deep satisfaction to this store to be able to still sell
Blouses of the high character and complete desirability at this very modest
price. ^— —
—Right as to Style, Right as to Quality, Right as to WorkAianship, and
Right as to Fit, they would well warrant a considerably higher price.
Two appealing pew models have just’ arrived, one of which is illustrated.
There are certain points regarding the Welworth that we want to empha
size, because they are worthy of emphasis: That they are sold at the same
low price the Nation over: That we receive the identical Styles on the
same day that they first make their appearance in the Style Centers of the
Country; That every Blouse bearing this mark is unconditionally guaran
teed; And that the New Styles are constantly being developed for and
sent here but a few days after their origination, and that it is the unique
Wirthmor Plan that makes these unapproachable values possible.
