The accusations were hurled in a bitter debate this afternoon when the Resolutions Committee pre sented its report before the annual State convention here. The com mittee proposed an increase in the annual membership dues to support the ‘‘Legionnaire.” Roy S. Pyle of Havre de Grace declared the publication was a “one j man paper” and was being used for ; political purposes. James H. Onion, business man ager of the organ, said it was mak ing money and had a balance of more than $1,300. Staff Member Opposes Setup. Mr. Pyle's charges and subsequent ■ denials by supporters of the publi cation precipitated a heated argu ment, and at one point John F. Boschen, department commander, who was presiding, 'turned over his gavel to Vice Commander George P. Welzant. A member of the “Legionnaire’s" ] editorial staff, Esther E.

Among resolutions voted on was a ’ ; proposal that displaced persons be i ; admitted to the United States i .through unfilled portions of immi- ] gration quotas which accrued dur ing World War II. The resolution ] was rejected. Resolutions proposing increases of on-the-job training payments, dis abled veterans pensions, and the number of veterans hospital beds in Maryland were approved. Also passed was a proposal that congressional pagebov appoint ments be limited to disabled vet erans “capable of performing such duties.” A resolution to start preparation for construction of a central office or home for the Department of Maryland was voted down. Assemhlv Dflppatm State Senator David R. McLaugh lin, Republican, of Washington j County, took exceptions to charges j made yesterday that several mem- I bers of the Maryland General As sembly are "antiveteran." William H. McGrath, chairman of the Legion's Legislative Committee and a delegate from Prince Georges i County, had declared in a report1 that opposition to an anti-Com munist bill was encountered in the Senate Judicial Proceedings Com mittee. Mr. McGrath also declared that the Montgomery County delegation had refused to accede to the wishes of the county's own veterans. Senator McLaughlin, in his reply, said the Judicial Committee had withheld approval of the bill be cause it was "unconstitutional as first written." Upholds Senator Bolton. He said that besides himself, two other members of the committee were members of the American Legion—Senators Louis Goldstein of Calvert County and Stanford Hoff of Carroll County. "Any implication / that Senator Bolton (committee chairman) w-as unfair,”*Mr. McLaughlin said, "is: i untrue.” , j He said "after the bill was amend- \ ed to make it constitutional we ap I aproved it and it was passed by the II assembly .” I The five-day convention Is sched I Fogel's Price-Slashing Sale! | • : ' :V';' ",' Famous “Lady Baltimore” . i — • ... v ■.... s, * gggg|| ' .w ;V |||j| .. • ?• i!
