D., June 24.—(2)—~ The American Legion will continue to do all in its power to secure full and immediate payment of the adjusted service certificates, National Com- mander Frank L. Belgrano Jr. told the North Dakota state Legion convention here Monday. Belgrano and Mrs. A. C. Carlson, Willmar, Minn., national president of the auxiliary, addressed the first joint sessions of the Legion and auxiliary conventions. “The American Legion never quits @ job it starts,” the commander said in discussing the payments, “and it will never be said the American Legion led the veterans up a dark alley.” The commander said the people re- member only that the Legion dee manded the full payment of the certi- ficates. He charged his hearers to inform the public that, even before the soldiers were out of the trenches, congress and other leaders of the na- tion were discussing an adjustment of compensation, Became Political Football He added that when rhs war ended, Washington, June 24.—(AP)—De- manding « big stick policy to “police” Nearing the end of the trial, Mrs. ae If, like most folks, you have trouble making smoke rings, take a tip from the British aviators and make rings with planes instead of tobacco.’ Their welkin ringing activities were a feature of preparations at Northolt Aerodrome in England for the Royal Air Force display 19 St. Paul Police Charged With Underworld Contacts LOSE EVES IN , MARY BURTON ee E : i | aes I Re 5 paid in cash and with 6 per cent added, BF o still is.” He charged the government did not settle with the veterans as it did with industry, “They gave us that famous piece of Res A 4 Commissioner Demands Resig- i fi 5 i é § ars, ss] WEEK-END MSHAPS| "sss | SUCCUMBS AT HOME Sszte=seresastee matter.” He claimed the money, & would go into channels of trade aid in reviving business, and thas Legion had as much right to go congress and advocate the passage @ bill as any other business group.

Puneral services have not been set Pending word from relatives living in New York. Life ended suddenly and quietly for Mrs. Burton. In the morning she had attended services at the First Presbyterian church and in the aft- ernoon felt as well as usual. She mentioned being rather tired at the last time she was seen by her daugh- ter, Mrs. Samuel H. Merritt, whose home is next door to the Burton re- sidence. Mrs, Merritt found her dead when she returned about 6:45 o'clock. During the past several years she had suffered a number of slight heart attacks. The late Mrs. Burton was born December 4, 1855, at Huntsburg, Ohio, and attended both Hiram and Ober- lin colleges in Ohio before her mar- riage to Clark A. Burton at Hunts- burg on March 21, 1882. Mrs. Burton came to North Dakota as a bride and with her husband took up a homestead in Grand Forks county, near Arvilla. Ten y2ars later they moved to Fort Stevenson, now Fort Berthold, where Mr. Burton was during ing Paul, Minn.

Thus the city which was branded a “crime spot” by Attorney General Homer Cummings more than'a year ago almost coincident with the begin- ning of the Warren regime, found several of its oldest police officials facing grave charges.
