After commending legislation for national defense passed by the last congress, the convention adopted a report calling for a concentration of national defense methods. ‘The resolution urged a standing army of 165,000 enlisted men with 14,000 officers augmented by 210,000 national guardsmen, and continuation of officers’ camps, the CM.T.C. and R.O.T.C. in schools. ‘Want Parity Navy A treaty navy on a parity with any navy in the world manned by 92,000 enlisted men and 15,000 officers, and new naval training ships also was recommended.

The Soviet resolution, one of 21 submitted and approved, charged the Soviet government with continuing ‘“inimical and subversive agitation” which it had promised would cease another resolution. Hit at Immigration As a matter to be considered in its) Iegislative program, the Legionnaires voted demands for closing all immi- gration for 10 years, deportation of undesirable and destitute aliens, and finger-printing of all persons. ‘The veterans of the last war may submit a legislative program that would saddle the cost of future wars on stay-at-homes. A pet issue of National Commander Frank N. Bel- grano, Jr., providing for the conscrip- tion of private capital and resources on a parity with man-power in time of war, was in committee. Its adop- tion was urged in Belgrano’s annual report. A vigorous foreign program, built around future world peace, was adopt- ed by the delegates. The Legion was called upon to ask all nations to work toward the practical realization of world peace. Commend Neutrality Delegates voted to commend the neutrality resolution of the last con- gress, and asked the government to continue its efforts for collection of war debts. It also was decided to send a let- ter of sympathy to Leopold III of Belgium, whose queen was fatally in- jured in a recent automobile ac¢i- dent. The delegates also protested “the British tariff preferentials and Can- discriminat tional convention.

Yeah, Man! Lemme On!” Until sun-up the celebrants along Lenox Avenue, Main Street of New York’s Negro colony, danced in the streets, snake- danced and jigged and clogged, knocked over ashcans, and sang ‘and blew bugles and rolled drums.

I’ve had my fling and now I'm through. “Louis is a great fighter. He's not the best but he’s young and probably will go a long way.” “How do you think Louis will make out against Braddock?” he was asked. “I don’t know. I wouldn't want to say. Personally I don’t think they'll ever fight.” Joe Impassive as Ever In the other dressing room, Louls was as phlegmatic and passive as ever. He had become a bridegroom a few hours before he stepped into the ring. Waiting for him at home was his bride. Like Louis, she shunned os- tentation. She had sat 25 rows back at fight, and she had gone home on a street car, the ride costing her nickel of nearly $200,000 her spouse was to bring home. Asked if he wanted to meet meling next, he said: “Okay by me if beating him means Braddock.” Louis agreed to plans for a foreign tour, including fights in South Amer- ican and European capitals, under Promotion of Mike Jacobs. .

ENT AND HALE ALL THAT KEEPS STRIKE FROM SETTLEMENT No Progress Reported From Conference of Operators and Miners’ Leaders Washington, Sept. 25.— (?) —Soft coal miners and operators remained deadlocked in their wage negotia- tions Wednesday as the United Mine Workers continued a widespread strike they began Monday morning. The negotiating committee gath- ered for another session but there was no indication of an ate break in the impasse. “No progress” was the report Van A. Bitner, southern West Virginia district president of the mine union. made as he emerged from the con- ference room Tuesday night. A difference of only a cent and a half on tonnage rates paid to the miners who dig and load the coal still was all that separated the work- ers and producers from an agreement to replace the old wage contract which originally expired last April 1. Since that time it has been extended five times.

London, Sept. 25.—(#)—The ex- change telegraph agency corre- spondent at Addis Ababa report- ed Wednesday that Emperor Haile Selassie had ordered a gen- eral mobilization of Ethiopian troops. (By the Associated Press) Two striking developments in the Italo-Ethiopian dispute originated Wednesday in Rome and Addis Ababa, the capitals of the opposing nations, The Italian government announced officially that Italy never would be the first to transfer the conflict to Europe. simultaneously, Emperor Haile Selassie asked the League of Nations to send a neutral commission to Ethiopia to determine who might be the aggressor in the event of hos- tilities. The Italian announcement included &@ communication from Sir Samuel ols ee e was “particularly desirous of ing all . misunderstandings” between Great Britain and Italy. Geneva Pessimism Deepens New pessimism was projected into Geneva by the publication of Italian observations which included the charge that the League of Nations, in attempting to avert war, had failed to take into consideration Italy's case against Ethiopia. With Ethiopia’s festival of Mascal —the end of the rainy season—close at hand, the situation grew tense on the border between the black empire and the Italian colonies of Somali- land and Eritrea, All able bodied warriors in Emperor Haile Selassie's northern provinces, concentrated in @ mass movement, advanced toward the Eritrean front, The League of Nations made pub- lic charges by Italy that the "8 five-power committee had failed to take into consideration allegations made by Italy against Ethiopia. Italy had asked the committee to consider whether the east African empire was still worthy to belong to the League when it had not fulfilled its obliga- tions and had openly violated others. Await League Move Officials at Rome, however, adopted ®& policy of “patience,” and govern- ment spokesmen asserted “the next move is up to the League of Na- tions.” France's premier, Pierre Laval, hav- ing lost hope of preventing an East African war, turned to a study of punitive sanctions against all future aggressors. French officials had asked for British assurances in demanding League action against future aggres- a They expected a “favorable” reply. “Sadly disillusioned” by ¥ Duce’s Tefusal to come to peaceful terms with Ethiopia, Laval conferred with Anthony Eden of Britain over a com- mon Franco-British course.
