MARSHAL FOCH
CANNOT ATTEND
Replies to D’Olier’s Invitation
to Meet With Legion.
The strong ties "that bind me and
■will always bind me to the valiant sol
diers of America” constitute the keynote
of a personal letter from Marshal Foch
to Franklin O'Olier, National Commander
of the American Legion, received at na
tional headquarters of the organization
here today.
The communication is a reply to the
Legion's formal invitation recently for
warded through the French embassy at
Washington requesting Marshal Foch to
attend the second annual convention of
the organization, which opens at Cleve
land, Sept. 27.
The noted allied war leader declares
the present military situation in Europe
will keep him on the continent for some
time to come and asks Mr. O'Olier to
present to the delegates his profound re
great at being unable to mingle "with
the conquerors in the World War.”
His letter follows:
"You have been more than kind to. send
me, through the representative of the
Government in Washington, an invitation
ot attend the second national convention
of the American Legion at Cleveland,
Sept. 27, 28 and 21) nest.
WOULD TAKE PRIDE
IN MEETING LEGION MEN.
"Be assured that no courtesy could
have afforded me greater pleasure and
gratification than this invitation, and
that my pride and satisfaction would
have been very great to have found my
self once more among the members of
the American Legion with the conquerors
In the great war.
"Unfortunately, the present situation in
Europe compels me to remain here, busily
occupied with numerous tasks.
"It keeps me and will continue to keep
me for some time on our continent anil
prevents my answering your letter as I
would have liked to reply to it.
"But I ask you, Mr. Commander, to be
toward all the members of the American
Legion, the interpreter of my regrets, as
well as of the profound sentiments of
sincere cordiality and strong ties that
bind me and will always bind me to the
valiant soldiers of America.
"Believe me, most sincerelv, yours,
"F. FOCH.”

STILLS OPERATE
IN STJLLY NIGHT
They’re Still at It, Morals
Squad Reveals.
They still make whisky by using a
still, in the still hours of the night In
Indianapolis, members of the morals
squad said after making a number of
successful raids last night.
John Barb and Mrs. Emma Barb, 1038

found a still in operation in the base
ment.
The still was of fifteen gallons’ ca
pacity and Mrs. Barb was acting as chief
engineer at the time of the raid.
She kicked orer a jar of
mash, and emptied a container into
which drops of “white mule” were
trickling from a long coil, the police
say, before they .could stop her.
When the woman's husband returned
home later the police arrested him on
charges of operating a blind tiger.
The still had been connected with a
furnace in such a way that the fumes
were carried through the chimney.
While in the neighborhood the morals
squad gave Mr. Barb's son-in-law the
honor of a visit.
Paul McCalip, 1053 North Tremont ave
nue, the son-in-law, was sitting In his
automobile in the rear of the home
when the police called, but he drove
hurridly away and escaped after a pur
suit of two miles.
In the basement of the McCalip resi
dence the police found a ten-gallon still,
sixty gallons of mash and a gallon of
white mule whisky.
Miro Raboff. 776 Ketcbam street, pro
prietor of a pool room, was arrested ou
a blind tiger charge, the police alleging
he tried to destroy a quart of “white
mule” as they entered the place.
Nick Charles and Gill Thomas ran into
a poolroom at 702 Arnolda avenue when
they saw the morals squad and the police
allege they poured two quarts of “white
mule” whisky out of a glass Jar, but the
police found one quart of the "mule” in
a room in the rear of the poolroom and
both men were arrested.
