SPANISII RV ADDRESSES LEGION Retiring Gommander Alcorn compam‘ War's Horvors 8t. Paul, Sept, 16.— Veterans of the Spanish-American and World wars heard the fortuncs of battle, deeds of valor and the hardship and suftering of campaigns compared over more than two decades when Albert D. Alcorn, retiring command- er-in-chief of the United Spanish War Veterans today addressed the convention of the American Leglon. “When you boys went to the ‘World War, you remember that you were heroes in the eyes of those you were leaving behird,” sald Mr, Al- corn. “If you were fortunate to be among the first to return from for- elgn fields, you were still heroes, but if among the last, you saw very few celebrations in your honor. You were brought into the country, mus- . tered out, and sent to your respec- tive homes with barely mention of your service. ‘The navelty of recelv- ing returning troops had worn off. The people soon forget. Many of you were lucky indeed to find your ofd jobs awaiting you. “The same thing applied to the Spanish-American war perfod. They call it a little war, but they forget the days of 1898, when the people of the eastern coast and the gulf ¢oast were terrified and unnerved th far of a bombardment by the panish fleet that had disappeared from the Azores and' which was thought to be somewhere in the vicinity of our shore prepared to strike our most vulnerable spot. “They forget that the bankers of the coast citles were so frightened and panic-stricken that they werg shipping their money to Interior points for society. “They forget that there were many anxious moments in homes from which 312,000 volunteers came at that time, “The forget that the terrible rav- ages of fever in camps in our own country caused a greater percentage of fatalities than in any other war period. “They forget that when we came home they were proud of us because the war was short; that we never lost a battle, never lost a flag and never retreated from a single foot of ground. “They forget that the display of fighting qualities of the men of that period first opened thq eyes of the world that this nation was amply able to back, with force, if neces- sary, its ideas of freedom and jus- tice and humanity. “We can see no reason therefore for discrimination against us in favor of the veterans of any other war in which this nation has been engaged. The same debt of the grati. GOLDSMITH’S GOLDSMITH’S GOLDSMITH'’S tude and the same duty of service s due us. “8o, my comrades of the World war, If you hear a comrade of thi Bjanish war boast of his service in a war that was 100 per cent volun. teer, the veterans of which are gross. ly discrimina against, put your. selves In his place. Remember, twen- ty years have clapsed between hls war and your wi Do not think that because we are proud of our service and asked for equal consid. eration,: that we are attempting to place obstructiona in the way of your obtaining what ls rightly due you. “Numerically, we are only a small unit as oompared with you. Your power is o proportion to your nimerical strength. We recegnize that fact. A older veterans eed your continued help and support in order that we may recelve something ke equal conslderation With the veterans of all Wars, Guests on Auto Ride Sue Driver for $4,500 Mr. and Mra, Charles Sidvic have brought suits tofalling $4,600 against Joseph Telsaiske. The plain- tiffs allege that on September 9 they were riding in an automobile driven by the defendant and suffred seriove injury when the ear overturned, due to the careless manner in which it waa driven.
