LEGION T0 PRESS UNIVERSAL DRAFT Objective to Rank With Bonus Legislation at Next Session. By the Associated Press. ‘Ameriean Legion leaders are pre- paring to place national defense and universal draft legislation alongside bonus payment and widows and or- phans’ pensions as their primary objectives in the next Congress. They believe public concern over the Italian-Ethiopian War will en- hance chances of the proposals being enacted at the session beginning in January. A summary of legislative recom- mendations adopted at the Legion’s recent national convention in St. Louis is being prepared for presenta- tion to the National Executive Com- mittee at a meeting November 1 and 2 in Indianapolis. Under the universal draft, in which the Legion convention this year re- affirmed its faith, those employed at home in time of war would be under the Government's jurisdiction equally as much as soldiers. At the last session of Congress the organization backed the McSwain bill, designed to ‘“prevent profiteering in time of war and to equalize the bur- I dens of war,” but as passed by the THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., House this measure specifically ex- empted industrial employes from war- | time conscription.

More than 34,000 persons lost their lives last year in accidents in Amer- ican homes, Dr. George E. Keneipp of the District Red Cross Executive Com- mittee Saturday night told the Mount Pleasant Citizens’ Association. Dr. Keneipp urged the citizens to support a drive to be started soon by the American Red Cross to make the country safety conscious in'the home as well as outside. He also urged the civic unit to support the Red Cross in its annual roll call. After hearing Dr. William P. Argy of the District Medical Society discuss the prevalence of tuberculosis in Washington and the Health Depart- ment's current case-finding survey, the association adopted a resolution in- dorsing the survey and pledging its aid. A movement to do away with open display of foodstuffs for sale in the city was begun by the association with the naming of Raymond Bowen as chairman of a special committee to Pprepare a resolution. “Before we are through,” said com- mittee members, “we are going to have all fruits and vegetables for sale sold indoors and upder glass.” R. J. Werner was installed as new president of the association. Other officers are Mrs. W. G. Stuart, vice president; John D. La Mater, secre- tary; Daniel Foley, treasurer, and Dr. A. A. Chenay and Dr. Henry H. Bur- Toughs, delegates to the federation. foe | NAZI CHURCH OPPOSED | Prussian Confessional Groups Will Fight New Order. | BERLIN, October 14 (#)—Letters read from the pulpits of Prussian Confessional Churches yesterday de- ! clared war on the plan of Hans Kerrl, head of the Ivazi cCepartment of | church affairs, to create a new church | | independent of German Christians | and Confessionals. v Those who seek the new church were called “false prophets” and told plainly that the Confessional pastors intend to defy the new order.
