New Orleans in Gala Attire As
Ei-Soldlers Gather to Go to
Mat With Problems.
New Orleans, Oct. 15. Soldier,
sailors ' and marines of , four years
ago. members of the American
Legion, were gathered here tonight
for their fourth annual national
convention, which begins tomorrow
and continues for five days.
It Is a convention which Is sched
uled to achieve much business, and
shape policies for the future course
of the Legion.
Last year's American Legion Con
vention In Kansas City, with -Marshal
Foch, Admiral Earl Beatty of
England, General Dial of Italy and
General Jacques of Belgium as dis
tinguished guests was a combination
of pageant and reunion on a gigan
tic scale.
What the legion's-future policy
will be on the bonu; what, if any,
criticism will be leveled at the Ad
ministration because ot the defeat
of the compensation measure in
Congress when President Harding's
veto was sustained, were outstand
ing questions. . Discussion of the
programme made in caring for the
disabled, the work of the United j
States Veterans' Bureau and the
part played by Brig. Gen. C. E.
Sawyer In connection with hospitali
zation were alio scheduled for sharp
discussion.
It was noticeable that there were
many less men wearing their uni
forms than has been the case at pre
vious conventions. Perhaps a good
many of the uniforms are WQrn out
after all, It has been nearly four
years since the fighting in the Ar
gonne and along the Meuse.
Another noticeable feature of the
convention was the large number of
women who came with their soldier
relatives to participate in the festiv
ities which will accompany the con
vention and to attend the conven
tion of the American . Legion Auxili
ary, the women's organization,
which meets at the same time.
Summer weather greeted the con
vention visitors today, and under a
bright sun, palm trees, oleanders
and roses gave a tropical touch to
the setting. j
