PAGE TWO Battle Over Politics Looms a 2 NEW PLAN MAY LET OFFICIALS BE CANDIDATES Proposal Would Cut Legion) Loose from Nonpartisan Restrictions AMENDMENT PREPARED Sentence Barring Politicians} from Holding Office Would Be Abolished american Legion, strictly a nonpartisan organization, as far as politics is concerned, ever since it was founded, soon may cut loose from its old restrictions and enter the political arena whenever it sees fit. That pos: ity arises from the fact that certain legion members are now preparing an amendment to the organization’s constitution which they will introduce at the legion con- vention here, October 8 to 12. The amendment, it is understood, would strike out the last sentence of article 2, section 2, of the constitu- tion. That section now readt “The American Legion absolutely nonpolitical and s! be used for the dissemi partisan Pineinles. nor for the pro- motion of the candidacy of any per- son secking public office or prefer- ment, No candidate for, or incum- bent of, any salaried elective public office shall hold any office in the American Legion or in any depart- ment or post thereof.” 3 Removing the last sentence of this section would still leave the legion committed against partisanship, of course. But conservative legion- naires predict that letting down this one bar would be but a preliminary to putting the legion squarely into polities. As‘a result, it is expected that a bitter fight will mark debate over the projected amendment. Some advocates of the amendment are frankly declaring that the legion can not exert any great influence on national affairs until it takes a po- sition from which it can take definite pnhtis, SUPERINN ane 1009, BY NEA ommue zi “Looks like the job’s taken, Pop; we might as well shove on.” exercises, a great air circus in which some of America’s most famous flyers will perform, a Broadway show, a Mexican revue, Spanish fiestas, and trips to the cities along the Mexican border. ; Then, of course, ++~~- will be that preeminent feature of all legion con- ventions—the big parade.

Spafford and distinguished guests. Sessions of the convention will be party sides when an occasion may demand it. Others, not willing to go so far, believe that there should be no discrimination against salaried public office-holders who also hap- pen to be legion officials. They in- sist that this amendment would not put the legion into politics, pees out that the legion eannot com- mitted to any public issue except by its own vote in national convention. Back of the whole proposal, of course, lies the obvious fact that the legionnaires are not the carefree youngsters they were a decade ago. They are beginning to get a bit bigger about the waistline and a little thinner as to hair; and, with advancing years, has come a step upward in society. Legionnaires are now running for all kinds of offices, from state representative to gov- ernor and congressman. They are becoming prominent in politics, not| Y- M. C. because of the growth of the legion, but simply because they are grow- ing up and developing their indi- vidual abilities. The 1928 coming convention will be a notable one. The legion has built itself from the dark days of 1924, when its membership list slumped badly, until it now hes nearly a million members—as many as it ever had. These members will * represented at the convention here by thousands of delegates and their wives and families. An elaborate ‘entertainment pro- gram has been planned.

It was estimated that 1,000,000 bushels of wheat was taken today for Europe. Reports of crop failure and of impending famine in parts of Russia were current. Export busi- ness in corn was also noted, but the corn market, after touching a new high price record for the May de- livery, sagged toward the last as a result of selling to realize profits. Supplementing the bullish effect today of higher Liverpool quotations than looked far and advices or urg- ent need of bread stuffs in Russia was word that Canadian wheat is being shipped to India, and that four vessels have been chartered to take Canadian wheat to Bombay. Meanwhile, Liverpool reported a better demand abroad today both for Canadian wheat and for Argentine as well. On the other hand, some selling of the December delivery of wheat here today for northwest ac- count was in evidence. Month-end purchasing for specu- lators who were in need of corn to fill September contracts helped to strengthen the corn market at times today. Entire absence of offers of old corn to arrive in Chicago was also a feature. Receipts today, how- ever, were of fair volume, 140 cars, and shippers said eastern demand was good.
