V. closed Septem- ber 10 with the election of George H. Lunn, former Lieutenant Governor of New York, as commander-in-chief, with the selection of Los Angeles, Calif, as the convention city for the 1933 en- campment. The 1932 encampment will be_in Milwaukee. Many resolutions of interest to th ecitizens of America in general and to Bpanish War Veterans in particular were adopted by the encampment. One resolution adopted called upon the War irtment to accept an unlimited number of short-term enlistménts of &ix months to help relieve unemploy- ment and the present business dep:os- sion. The new commander-in-chief takes a stand against any pauper clause being written into any pension bill. Another resolution adopted calls for | an increased pension of Spanish War Veterans of a minimum rate’ of '$50°a month for every veteran of the War with Spain, the Philippine insurrection and the China relief expedition, with & graduated . increase proportionate to their disabllity. For three-fourths dis- Tor those now on the pension rolls and without application therefor. A rate of a $100 a month for all those now on the roll at $72 a month is also in- cluded in the resolution. There is also & provision that all widows of the three groups be pensioned at the rate of $40 & month, and all minor children of de- ceased veterans be pensioned at the rate of $10 a month until they reach the age of 18 yeats. Another resolution ndopted was that the Olympia, Admiral Dewey's flagship, be preserved and maintained as a memorial of the war with Spain. Comdr. in Chief Lunn reappointed James J.
