Bocal Post of The American Legion Formally "y"\ Organized .v Over one hundred ex-service men iieere the guests qP the citizens of Sumter at a very enjoyable banquet :jj?v<en at La Tosca Monday evening. After a delightful ? ^urse dinner some informal speeches were heard, the speakers talking along, lines that were of great interest to" the men present. " Mr. L. M. Rice 'was elected as tempoary chairman of the meeting and after a few words introduced Mr. E*. -L- Readon, secretary of the Sumter Chamber of Commerce, who told the service men how proud Sum ter county was of their record in the war, and the record they are making' after tjje war. He told them that whatever they undertook to do, the citizens of the county were behind them and would give them all the aid possible. Mr. S. L. Roddey was the next speaker who, as a practical, in surance man, gave them a few details as to the advantages of the Govern ment War Risk Insurance. Mr. J. H. Widerman, representing* the Treasury Department at Washington was the main spteaker of the evening. He discussed the insurance question in detail, telling the;men present many things that they wished to know about government insurance, how they could obtain it, how to be rein stated and when the time limit was up. He told the men that they must make application for reinstatement at. once as the time limit was up July 1, or 18 months after their discharge from the - army, whichever date happened to be the latest for the individual > men. Those who have let their insurance lapse, , can be reinstated, regardless of how long they have been out of. the service.;* The conditions were that they must pay two, months extra premiums,, must be in as good health as they were when discharged or at the expiration of iheir grace period, and so state in their application. It is not necessary to have a medical examination to be reinstated. After Mr. Widerman's address which was well received, ai good many men made application to be reinstated. The question was, brought up of how the men who were.--in need of medical attention., now should go about getting it. They were advised to consult Dr. H. L. Shaw who is the U. S. Health Sur geon for this district. Mr. Widerman also said that an .announcement >had been, made by Director R. G. Cholme ley Jones of the Bureau of War Risk Insurance, that former service men,* if they were injured or contracted disease while in the service, even, though the injury or disease be of a minor character, should be sure to apply to the Bureau of . War Risk Ins urance, for a certificate of injury be fore One Year after the date of dis charge or resignation, hi order to protect themselves and their depend ents against possible aggravation of the trouble hereafter. After Mr. Widerman's address, a permanent organization of the Sumter Post of the American Legion was ar ranged. He. .'tofore only a temporary organization has been functioning in Sumter county. The organization per fected last night consists of about 100 members and it is the purpose of the; post to seek other members.' - The officers elected were:' Geo D. Levy, Post Commander, L. M. Rice, Vice Commander, John B. Duffie, Adjutant, S. L. Roddey, Insurance Officer^ Dr. W. E. Mills, Historian. Executive Committee, E. W. Dabbs, Jr., S. K. Nask. E. T. White, Willis D. Ryan and W. M. Levi. Financei Committe, Robt. W. Plowden, R. T. Brown and S. Y. Dinkins, Membership Committee, J. J. Rileyf Dick Gainey and Hal W. Harby. It is the plan of the post to have a good many social gatherings and get-together meetings. The post wishes to get other members and member ship cards may be obtained from^ John B. Duffie or any officer of the organization. cotton letter (John F. Clark & Co.) New York, June 24.?Cotton was steady around opening on a demand from the larger spot houses despite the bearish national ginners condi tion of 72. When this demand was satisfied, however, the market sagged for want of support, becoming weak at midday on liquidation of, July, ap parently by Liverpool. J. W. Jay & Co., made the condition 67.1 which was more in line with what traders thought the figure should be but in a statistical statement figured that the carry-over July 31 would be six and a half milliion bales. This is al most as much as last year but every one knows a big proportion of it is low grade stuff, not tenderable, or desired by spinners. The map was good. The market is losing all its friends and although the crop may only be eleven million'and a 40 cents proposition eventually, it is going to be hard to lift i tand sustain advances until trade and speculation take hold more aggressively.

Crr* SPEED ORDINANCE -' ? j What City Council is Doing to Pre vent Reckless Driving. j ' - ? " ! Mr. Editor,? Your article in last night's paper ! regarding speeding is very timely and I wish to- advise what is being done by Crty Council to improve this situa tion. Under the traffic ordniance .it was necessary to prove that the speed lifnit was exceeded for a distance oC two hundred feet. This Ordiance has been amended providing convict i ion if the limit is exceeded at any one point. The Traffic ordinance has been amended making the minimum fine for violation $50.00. This amend ment has beert passed by Council and will be published promptly in order that it can go into effect. Council is arranging for a traffic police whose entire time will be spent In 'the residential ^districts in an en deavor to enforce the traffic laws and make it safer for our families to use the streets. - The law regulating age of auto drivers is being enforced and Council is now contemplating an ordinance requiring drivers to pass an examina tion to prove their ability to properly drive a ear. ? We know of course that the per centage of those who deliberately violate the traffic ordinances are small and we hope with the conditions outlined above, and especially withi j the cooperation of our people, to i very much reduce this percentage. > / J.
