Legion Commander Denies Republican Control of Paper Veteran Organization Sole Chmer of Publication ; > on-Partisan and Non Political. Says D'Olier CLEVELAND, ?ept. 24.?Franklin d'Olier, national commander of the American Legion, issued a statement here to-night denying testimony of Jo? seph L. Heffernan before the Senate investigating committee to-day that the Aaenran Legion weekly publication is controlled by the Republican party. He said: "The scie owner and controller of The American Lsgion Weekly is the American Legion, a non-pur'i.-iap. n?>n pcl'.'icsl organization, and chartered as such by the Faderal government. "The American Legion Weekly is the officia! publication of the American Legion. It is published by the Legion , Publishing Corporation. The by-laws provide that the national commander shall he president, the national treas wer shall be treasurer and the national adjutant of the Legion shall be secre? tary of the publishing corporation. "Every share of capital stock i* owned by the American Legion subject to the direction of the national execu? tive committee of the Legion, which is composed of one member-from each of the forty-eight state departments, elect? ed by the state membership. "The American Legion Weekly has fceen entirely financed and supported from its inception by the American Le? gion and from no other source." Denial of charges that The American Legion Weekly is controlled by the Republican National Committee and that The Stars and Stripes, another sol? dier publication, is controlled by the Democratic National Committee was made in statements in New York last night by Harold W. Ross, editor of The. ' Legion Weekly, and George White, Democratic National Committee chair? man, respectively. Mr. Ross branded the charges made against his publication as "false and absurd." Mr. White said "The Democratic National Committee hasn't, a dollar in? vested in The Stars and Stripes or any other publication. I know no such in? vestment has been made since ? became chairman, and an examination of the records of the committee shows no such investment was made previous to ray election." -? Legion and G. A. R. to Continue Co-operation Proposed Resolution on Trans? fer of Memorial Activities Will Not Be Presented CLEVELAND, Sept. 24.?A resolution proposing the transfer of the national memorial activities of the G. A. R. to the younger generation of soldiers which was to have been introduced at the second annual convention of the American Legion will not be present? ed, in view ni action taken to-day by the G. A. R. in convention at Indianap? olis, Franklin D'Olier, national com? mander, announced to-night. The resolution had been drawn up by three commutes, representing the G. A. R.. American Legion and Spanish War Veterans. Mr. D'Olier said. Dr. T. Victor Keene. national execu? tive committeeman from Indiana, who represented the American Legion at Indianapolis, said to-night that the American Legion would probably recommend a continued cooperation with the G. A. R. and other veterans in observation of memorial services for former service men and general services for the soldier dead. Secretaries of all the state delega? tions met to-day and discussed the seating of delegates on the convention floor. No agreement was reached. Two of the four leading candidates for nomination to the office of the national commander. F. W. Galbraith, past commander of the Department of Ohio, and Milton J. Foreman, state commander of Illinois, arrived to-day. / General John J. Pershing wired a message o? greeting. ? i t Legion Bars Bonns Parade County Organization Will Not Take Part in Action Henry W. Buxton, chairman of the New York County American Legion, de ?alared yesterday that his organization would not participate in any "bonus parade" such as members of the Legion and of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, who met Thursday niirht at the. Hotel -Majestic, announced would take place October 16. That meeting was without authority to commit the county organization to ?neta a project, Mr. Buxton said, and was held under circumstances which led him *o draw the inference that the whole scheme was an advertising de Tice of "certain newspaper?." The only ?Official action taken in the matter, he ?said. was a decision reached Thursday night at a meeting at the Hotel Penn- ' sylvania of representatives of the 200 p^fts in New "York County -not ?to tak" ' part in any such parade. j G. A. R. Meeting Ends ; Rejects Federation Plan i Favors Retaining Identity TU! Last Member Is Dead and Books Closed INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 24.?The cur-' tain fell here to-day on the fifty-fourth : nationai encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic, there were ' many heartfelt farewells a? the old1 ?buddies" parted to go in opposite di rections. bat with the firm resolve of being present at the next encampment, if ?live. New York State veterans had a prom? inent part in the encampment this year, and their members were aecorded nu-1 merous honors, in addition to their i representatives in the various allied ' G. A. R. organizations. The New York delegates said the encampment was the most successful in recent years and de? parted with the highest praise for the .hospitality accorded them. ' William A. Ketchum, of Indianapolis, ; was elected commander-in-chief at the closing session. A resolution proposing a federation , of the G. A. R. with the Spanish War ! Veterans and the American Leeion was i postponed indefinitely. The resolution ' was opposed on the ground that the i G. A. R. would lose its identity in such a federation. A resolution receiving i favorable action pioposes that the G. A. R. retain its identity until the last man is dead and its books closed. -a ? Celtic Brings In More Than 2,000 Passengers Mrs. S. Park?es Cadman, Wife of Brooklyn Pastor, and Daughters Among Arrivals The White Star liner Rteamship Cel? tic arrived here yesterday from Liver? pool with 2.006 passengers, 430 having been taken on at Queenstown where the vessel stopped as a port of call. Among the saloon passengers w<f> Mrs. S. Parkes Cadman'. wife of Dr. Church, of the Central Congregational Church of Brooklyn. She was accom- [ pani?d by her two daughters, the Misses Marie and Lillian Cadman. Mrs. Cadman said her husband had re? mained abroad to deliver an address at Southampton on September 27 at the unveiling cf a memorial statue to the Pilgrims. Another arrival was the Right Rev. William H. Moreland, Episcopal Bishop : of Sacramento, Calif., and Bishop Theo- '. dore P. Thurston, of Oklahoma, who have been attending the Lambeth Con? ference in London. Among others on board were Mrs. S. A. Conboy who represented the wofnen of the American Federation of Labor at the (conference at Portsmouth England, rnd Mrs. Pe.thick Lawrence, the?

Dispatch .?> The Tr'bvr* CHICAGO, Sept. 24.?Mr?. Corinne 1 Roasevelt" Robinson, sister of former President Roosevelt, arrived in Chicago to-day to start a speaking tour in the Middle West for Senator Harding. After brief greetings to the friends assembled to meet her, Mrs. Robinson . turned, with true Rooseveltian en?rgy and efficiency, to look after her bag? gage. Then, with Mrs. Leonard Wood and national committee folk, she drove to the Auditorium. ? "? "I came West at considerable incon? venience because members of the na? tional committee believed that, as Col. Roosevelt's sister, I might be of serv? ice in tbe campaign,'' Mrs. Robinson said. "My plea, particularly, is that every Progressive, with a capital 'P.* cet "behind th? Republican candidate and work for Republican victory. The Democratic nominee and bis aids are trying hard to bring the old Progres? sives into the ranks of the Democrats. If Teddy were alive to-day that would be his message to you, too, I feel sure.*' Mrs. Robinson wears deep mourning. and the corsage of roses handed her this morning from the women's de? partment of the national committee formed the only splash of color about her attire. A small luncheon was given in her honor at the Blackstone Fotfel. The guests included, besides Mrs. Wood, Mrs. Marshall Coohdge, of Minne? apolis, cousin of the nominee for Vice Pr?sident; Mrs. R. E. Edwards, of In? diana, and Mrs. Benjamin Fessenden, of Highland Park. The last time Mrs. Robinson was in Chicago was during the Republican National Convention, where her speech seconding the nomination of Leonard Wood for President won probably the greatest applause of the convention addresses. Mrs. Robinson departed to-night for Indianapolis. Gift to Cox Covered Up, He Charged (Cant'nued from paw er?) _.-?_, campaign fund of 1916, as brought out by investigations of the income tax bureau of the Federal government. Statement by Lockwood In explanation of his charges, and summarizing them, Mr. Lockwood made the following statement: "The Dayton Metal Products Com? pany, Dayton, Ohio, holding company for aircraft concerns enjoying large war contracts, on June 29, 15*18, gave a check for $5,075 (cheek No. 12341) in ostensible'payment of the personal : note of James M. Cox, for $5,000, with j three months' interest. This note, is in the possession of the Dayton Metal Products Company, cancelled, with no explanation of the payment or evidence that Mr. Cox had performed any serv? ice in return therefor. "An examination of th* circum? stances would Beem to indicate that this was a campaign? contribution o? the corporation to the Cox campaign; indeed, that is the most charitable ex? planation of the transaction. There was no reason why Mr. Coy should raise money by giving an unindorsed. personal note, and no reason apparent, v,hy the corporation should have paid the personal note of the then Governor of Ohio, without visible return of serv? ice. The president of the Dayton Metal Products Company was also president of the City National Bank of Dayton, ! to which the note was given. "The name of the president of the City National Bank of Dayton and of the Dayton Metal Products Companv is H. E. Talbot, Dayton, Ohio. From all the circumstances, a corporation con? tribution to Governor Cox's campaign fund is indicated. Th? facts can be de? veloped by calling Mr. Talbot with a request for the bank and metal prod- i ucts company records mentioned. Alleges Gifts to Brewer "Second- The Dayton Metal Products Company contributed checks ag?re j Fating $21.000 to a Cox campaign fund raised by Adam Schantz, a Dayton brew?r; .aggregating $37,000, for use in j Cincinnati and Ohio River counties in the campaign of 19.1?i. It was claimed that these sums, paid in corporation i checks, were charged te three stock- . holders of the company. Colonel D-eeds, '?. of airplane fame; H. E. Talbot and C. I F. Kettering. That it was a corpora? tion contribution, however, is indicated by the fact ?.hat later the funds of the j Dayton Flood Prevention Commission were looted by means of fake voucher? for service by dunimi?.i in a sum suffi? cient to repay the contributors to this fund, and in the case of the money given by Dayton Metal Products Com- . pany's checks restitution was made di? rect to that corporation. "Adam Schantz, the brewer, who raised this fund, later had to pay over money *o meet the increased income taxes of the dummies in order to square their accounts with the Federal govern? ment. In this cas* two questionable transactions took place: First, the corf tribution of the Dayton MetaJ Prod- I ucts Company to a campaign fund; second, the looting of a fund raised by popular subscription for flood nreven tion in order to reimburse corporate j and other contributors to a Cox-Wilson campaign fund. "The facts can be developed bv calling ' Adam Sch?ntz, H. E. Talbot. C. F. Kit tering and Colonel Deeds, of Dayton, I Ohio. It can also be learned in this way whether the large checks given by Colonel Deeds toward paying for the Cox special train to San Francisco, with . the accompanying band and several barrels of 2.7.S beer, was on behalf of himself or of the corporation." Campaign Manager Indicted Should a genaral investigation into j Governor Cox's previous campaigns in Ohio result from the charges made to- , day by Mr. Lockwood, William L. Find ley, Cox's campaign manager in 1912 and 1914. who was indicted, pleaded guilty and was fined for the unlawful collection of campaign funds from civil service employees, will be called to testify. Mr. Lockwood also gave the Kenyon committee "leads" regarding the ex? penditure of ."5250,000 by an opponent of 1. nited States Senator Underwood in the primary election in Alabama this year, the disfranchisement of voters in the Southern states and the user of Fed? eral patronage to defeat former Sena? tor Hardwick in Georgia and United States Senator Gore in Oklahoma. Tin committee showed no disposition to follow these "!?;ads" at one, however, and it is probable that investigation of ' them will be postponed until after the election. Facts concerning the charges made against previous Cox campaigns by Mr. Lockwood were brought, out by the Frear Congressional aviation investiga? tion committee of 1918. According to testimony before th? Frear committee that was not made part of 'he official records of the committee, because it developed that the. alleges campaign contributions had nothing tu do with Hie aircraft program during the war. Governor Cox gave his no'? ' for So.000 to the bank in August, 1917. took the 85.000 "m bills and placed them in a bag he carried. The note was found in the records of the Dayton Metal Product? Com? pany, the holding company of the Dayton Aircraft Corporation, cancelled and with no explanation of the pay men*, or evidence that Governor Cox ' had performed any service for it. Ac? countant L. V. Schndder. employed by the Frear committee, made the in? vestigation. Touched-in Aviation Inquiry Meier Steinbrink. an attorney of Brooklyn, in a letter to the Frear com? mittee asked that the fact? regarding the loan to Governor Cox be excluded from the committee's records. In his letter he said: "From these facts I conclude that while this places Governor Core in a very unfavorable light, where an ex? amination of him might prove exceed? ingly embarrassing, still it would add nothing to the investigation 'into avia? tion) we are conductine, and therefore we would not be justified in going into it." Accountant Schudder. in Report 7 to the Frear committee, on page 1, says: "It is earnestly requested by Mea?rs. Adam Sehant:. and -Tudge B, F." McCann, his counsel, both of Dayton, that noth? ing; be brought ou? in connection with these two funds unless it is clearly shown that, they have a connection in some way with the aviation program." Another fund of $"7,000 was raised by six men itl th? fall of 1916, the F^ear committee learned. This sum. according to en admission by Judge McCann, was used for political pur? poses in the election in November, 1916. The contributors to that fund were: H. E. Talbot. $7,000: Colonel E. A. Deeds, $7,000; C. F. Kettering, $7.000; Adam Schantz, $7,000; Walter Kidder, $7.000; F. M. Tait, $2,000. Total, $37, 000. Company Books Examined The books of the Dayton Metal Prod? ucts Company, it is alleged, show that the accounts of the first three con? tributors were charged with these sums, and the amounts were contribu? ted directly by check? drawn on th. metal products company. Mr. Schantz told the .accountant fot the Frear committee that he had nc books of records t?S show the disposi tion of this fund, hut from memorj furnished the following figures: To Gale Hartley, formerly of Day ton, who turned it over to the Inde pendent Voter?' Leng'ie of Cuyahogi County, Ohio. $?.?00. To William Mason, of Hamiltor County. Ohio (who says he turned il over to the Forward Looking Associa? tion of Ohio), in cash?$12,500. To Morris Sloman, of Columbus Ohio, who turned it over to the Work men's Compensation League of Ohio, ir cash $10.400. To Messrs. Goeke and Anderson, a* torneys, of Wapakoneta, Ohio?$2,000 Total?$33,600. Charges About Flood Fonds In Attorney Steinbrink's letter ti Representative Frear he charge? tha "in lylai certain men, employees of on-, kind and othsr, were required to sub mit fictitious charges for . services which charges wer. paid by the floo? prevention committee of Dayton," an? that "these payments were later givei to Adam Schantz and by him returnei to the original subscribers fas se forth in the foregoing! and that, "a this time Deeds (who contribute $7.000) was chairman and actually pre sdied at the meeting of the flood pre vention committee where ruhe vote wit .respect to these funds was taken." It is alleged that these dummy an temporary recipients of "fees" fror the Flood Prevention Committee lat<. had trouble with their income tax r. turns and that Mr. Schantz had to "pu up" the tax on the amounts, vote them and that these payments were d? ducted from the major fund. Mr. Lockwood threw his bombhe into the investigation after Senate Reed had concluded a severe griliin in an effort to show that the Reput ::can National Tommittee t?as expon? ing large sums to support The Nation?. Republican. The witness declared that hi? new: paper was frankly a partisan one, o ganized a? a corporation wi*h prom nent Republicans as stockholders f< the purpose of spreading Republican, doctrines and advocating Americaniza? tion. It was no more of a corpora? tion contribution to the Republican campaign than the support of the Scripps newspapers, testified to yester? day by Robert P. Seripps. ,was a cor? poration contribution for the Cox cam paien. he insisted "Would this committee like any fur? ther leads on the matter of corporation contributions to campaign funds?" asked Mr. Lockwood. The Chairman?Yes, sir. We are looking for all the leads we can find. Senator Edge?One gentleman spent two days giving us leads, and we would be glad to give you an opportunity, aurely. The Chairman?13 there a law in Ohio requiring the fijing of a state? ment cri campaign expenses? Mr. Lockwood? Yes,< Eir; there is such ?Tlaw. The Chairman?That would not ap? pear in the statement as filed? Mr. Lockwood--It should appear. unless camouflaged under tho pretense of paying a note. The process resort? ed to was that Mr. Cox gave a note - Mr. Cox is a ric_? man who does 'iot need to give personal notes ?for this S5.000, and then the corporation paid the note-, but without any record or evidence or indication' of any service performed by Cox to the corporation. Cross-Examined by Reed The Chairman?You take if from fbat that it was a campaign contribu? tion? Mr. Lockwood?I think that is the most, reasonable interpretation of the payment. ? Senator Reed: "Very well. Now, you draw the inference that that was a campaign contribution, but might not it have been an ordinary business deal, by which Mr. Cox gave his note foi something he was purchasing and that afterward, by arrangement with ihe company, they took the note up and like enough took the property?" Mr. Lockwood: "It has all the color, Senator, and appearance of being a political contribution. There ought to be some explanation, and it -is fair to say. Senator" Senator Reed: (interposing*) "Maybe there ought to be an explanation and maybe not. It does not come within the purview of this committee's busi? ness, but I am going to insist now. if the other Imcmbers of the committee will agree with me. that this mattei he immediately investigated, whether il is heyon?4 our jurisdiction or not, and that we get out of the realm of de duction into that of fact. I am not criticising you. although I think thai if I found your note in a bank, anc learned that a corporation had after ward? naid your note, I would not h?v? the right to infer that you used tha! money for political purposes, or tha' there was anything wrong about it." Veterans' Papers Involved Heffernan in his testimony told th? committee that Mrs. E. M. Parks, sec retary to W. D. Jamieson. director o finance of the Democratic Nationa Committee, owned $51,000 of the sotel of The Stars and Strines. while h owned $50.000. She has put up J48.no?: the committee was told. Heffernan -charged that an attemp W3S being made "by some N'ew Yor' persons or interests" to put The Star and Stripes out of basiness. and h protested against Senator Edge sittin, as a member of the committee whil he was testifying, charging that Sen ator Edge was in league with the op poTients of the paper. Challenged fo produce evidence t support his charge. Heffernan said tha the information had come to him in confidential way. He finally said th? Richard S. Jones, fn employee in hi office, had told him. A hurry call wa sent to The Stars and Stripes omc for Jones, who testified when he a{ peared {hat Heffernan had overstate the case. He sa;d that he had urge Heffernan to try and find out whs was back of the summoning of Th Stars and Stripes editors before th committee, and had called Heffernan attention to the fact, that Senator Ed? was in New York at the time the sun mon.- was issued, and thought thi Senator Edge might have had som? thing to do with it. Mr. Heffernan declared tha* t? American Legion is behind the effort he alleged is being made to put Th? Stars and Stripes out of business. He said that when the paper was suspended after the armistice, he saw an oppor? tunity to continue its publication as a privat? venture. He denied using'it for partisan political purposes. The American Le_?ion Weekly. Mr. Heffernan declared, "is controlled by the Republican National Committee." He said that T. Coleman du Pont, of the Republican National Committee, had tried to acquire The Stars and Stripes, and that he had had difficulty in continuing it? publication because Secretary of War Baker, through sen? timental reasons, wanted the title to md with the American Expeditionary Force?. Colonel Theodore Roosevelt jr.. he Aid. had gone to Secretary Baker and asked him to stop the use of the title. The witness said that he was ap? proached some time ago by Richard H. Waldo, who, he said, was then working ' for the du Ponts, and that, without making any direct offer for the paper, Waldo had advised him to sell the,pub lic-ation to the du Pont interests. Waldo warned him. the witness said, that if he did not sell the paper would be bankrupt in ?ix month?. The paper, ?'hich has a circulation of 100.000,- Mr. Heffernan snid, is now unable to get advertisements. S40O,?3??9 Spent hv League The League to Enforce Peace has collected $851,186^9, chiefly from 1 wealthy bankers and business men, and has spent more than $400,000 in the last two years advocating the League of Nations, Herbert S. Houston, vice president of Doubleday. Page & Co., of New York, and treasurer of the. league, testified. Senator Edge endeavored at length to force Mr. Houston to admit that the propaganda in favor of the League of Nations conducted by the League to Enforce Peace was helping Governor Cox and was being carried on to help the Democratic nominee, but Mr. Houston insisted that the league was non-partisan. The largest contributor shown on the books of the" League- to Enforce Peace was Bernard M. Baruch, wh?'> gave $47,000. Other large contributors included Charle? M. Schwab, the Phelps-Dodge Company and scores of other large corporations and bankers. Witnesses at the morning session , testified that Department of Justice of? ficials and employees were activ? around the Presidential headquarters of Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer during the Democratic conven? tion last summer. Says Trip Was Official Robert P. Stewart, an assistant to the Attorney General, told the com? mittee that official business connecled with fraud cases and the I. W. W. rar ried him and several of hi.?*colleagues to the Pacific Coa>?t about the time of the San Francisco convention. Frank R. N'ebeker. another assistant to the Attorney General, likewise te?tified that he was in San Francisco on official business during the convention. The vouchers of Stewart and N'ebe? ker were among those submitted to the committee yesterday, showing that the Department of Justice officials and em? ployees went to the convention at the expense of the taxpayers. The com? mittee to-morrow will iook over the vouchers of others and investigate to learn whether Mr. Palmer himself charged his traveling expenses to the Fe?ieral government. Postmaster General Burleson. w'ro was one of the most active of the Ad? ministration officiai? in San Francisco during the convention, took care not o charge his expenses to the govern? ment. William M. Mooney jr., di.bursir.g officer in the Postomce Departmen". testified that no one connected with 1 the department had filed any expense vouchers for the San Francisco trip.
