Minneapolis, Minn., Nov. 9.—Twen ty-five thousand delegates and alter nates representing practically 1,000,- 000 former soldiers, sailors and ma rines in every state and territory^ of the United States are in this city or States are thA first way hcee national convention of the American Legion which will open here tomor row. The convention will be in ses sion for three days, concluding Novem ber 12. The delegates will join with thousands of visitors "and with resi dents of this city in a parade and cele bration to “Armistice day” on Tuesday, November 11. Officers of the Legion feel that this convention will be of vital interest not only to former service men and wo men but to the country at large. Dele gates confront the task of defining the policy of the Legion with regard to national issues in which the welfare of the country and of its veterans of the great war are intermingled. Im portant questions to be submitted for decision by the convention include de termination of the attitude of the Legion toward the future military pol icy of the United States, and voca- tional education for war veterans, sol- dier and legislation and the future of war risk insurance. Suggestion has been made by Frank lin D’Olier of the state organization section that in forming its commit tees the convention should appoint one “to determine the exact limitation, if any, upon officers and commtitee mem bers of national, state and post organ ization with reference to their po litical activities, to maintain absolute ly the non-political character of the American Legion.” Permanent officers of the Legion are to be elected for the ensuing year. The location of national headquarters is to be chosen. A policy of organiza tion through state branches and local posts will be submitted for decision and the names of post, state and na tional officers are to be determined. Twenty thousand, persons are ex pected to participate in the parade in observance of armistice day, Tuesday. War camp community girls stationed along the line of march will sing as the parade is passing. Addresses will be delivered at the conclusion of the parade. The election of officers, se lection of* permanent national head 1 quarters and place of the next annual convention are not expected to be com- 93 acre farm one ^^ Minneapolis has been working for weeks to become the choice of the con vention for permanent national head quarters, but that honor is sought also by many other larger cities. There is much competition also for selection of the meeting place for the 1920 conven tion. Minneapolis and St. Paul have pre pared extensive programs of entertain ments for the former service mn and women outside of convention hours. A theater party and boxing exhibition have been arranged in this city for to morrow evening. A ball will be given for the. visitors Tuesday night. Although every delegate to the con vention has served with the armed forces of the United States in the World War, it, is understood that no uniforms are to be worn in the con vention. There is to be no ditsinction of rank/ Privates, generals, seamen, naval officep and officers and men of the marine' corps will mingle indis criminately. The convention is to be composed not entirely of men as a number of women delegates will rep resent posts of army nurses.

Toledo, O., Nov. 9.—Car riders who last Tuesday voted for an „ouster or dering the street cars from the steels because they -were paying 6 and 8 cents to travel to and from their work today were paying from 10 to 15 cents in automobile buses of which there was an abundance. The Toledo Railways and Light company began last midnight to spirit the cars out of the city until not a vehicle with wheels under it was left withffi the jurisdiction of the city of ficials who were responsible for the ouster ordinance passed last June be ing submitted to the people. Mayor Cornell Screiber himself in troduced the ordinance when 1 the coTh- pany Increased the fars from ;flve cents to six cents and two cents for a transfer to take care of an Increase in carmen’s wages. The cars were removed without no tice to public and city officials alike. All were taken into Michigan and stored on sidetracks. The action was taken immediately after official notifi cation wgs given the company by the board of election managers that the ouster ordnance had been approved by the voters. i Officials of the street car company, of which Henry L. Doherty, of New General Palmer today told the house agricultural committee. Unnatural economic conditions, the attorney said, “would be taken advan tage of by scrupulous people” to make prices high unless the powers grant ed under the act are continued in force. The conditions, he said, pre vailed throughout the world. “The conditions in the country im mediately following peace make it even more necessary that the law be continued than the conditions that prvailed throughout the world. “The act originally had for.its pur poses the increase of production and to protect the people from war time conditions that result in very high prices. Since the armistice prices have largely increased and unless, the government control is continued over some commodities the after-war con ditions may result , in higher prices than daring the war itseft." Suggestions by committeemen that extension of all sections of the law was necessary were answered by the attorney general urging blanket ex tension, for he said, the unexpected “situations might arise,” and that the mere existence of the law would be of wholesome influence. “The main purpose of the extenison would be to stop profiteering,” de clared the attorney general. Answering questions regarding the bituminous coal miners’ strike, the attorney general said that the depart ment of justice had no legal plans other than its injunction .suit at In dianapolis for dealing with the strike situation. “The failure of the men to carry out the contract to work at a certain wage during the war Is the primary cause,” he said, in reply to a question as to whether the strike was due to the war conditions. The attorney general declared, in response to a question, the President had -power to “take over the coal mines, if he saw fit.’.’ He also said that under the law the resurrected fuel administration could continue for six months after peace. Price fixing of food also Is possible under the law, but the attorney general said “be knew of nothing that contemplates use” of this authority. Mr. Palmer said that he was not certain that the conditions making extension of the law advisable would end in six months, but he declared that such a period would be as "short as congress would undoubtedly wish to make it." No suggestion was made during the hearing about an effort to block the President in lifting wartime prohibi tion, but in referring to the section of the Lever act" prohibiting manufac ture or import of intoxicating liquor the attorney general said facetiously “it would not be needed after next January,” when constitutional prohi bition becomes operative. Action on the attorney general's requests, both as to the extension of the food control*, and making funds available for an educational campaign bn the high cost of living through combating of “buy now” campaigns was deferred until Monday by the committee. York, is the head, gave it out tonight that cars are not to be operated here “until a permanent sttelement has been reached or is assured.” All iff 1 - erurban cars are being turned back at the city limits. Mayor Schreiber called a meeting of his cabinet today and placed the blame for the lack of street car trans portation on Frank R. Coates, resi dent president of the operating com pany. Th^ mayor declared that Pres ident Coates “broke a gentleman’s agreement” with the nuvyor that the cars would not stop running until the city officials notified the company to cease operating. . ^ - ' " r f' We Are Always Ready to serve vou with good printing.
