LEON ADVANGNG TOWARD TEXAS (Y Botween 75,000 and 100,000 o Attend Next Week’s Convention #an Antonio, Texas, Oct. 5 (A— The Yanks are coming? Between 75,000 and 100,000 mem- | bers of the American Legion and! Its feminine auxiliary are expected to be in Ban Antonio, October 8§ to 12, for the tenth national con- vention of the World War veterans’| organization. For many of the soldiers and nurses of a decade ago the conven-| tion will be, in a way, a home-com- | ing. More than a quarter of a mil- Mon men trained for the war at the dozen military posts near San An- tonio, including Fort S8am Houston, Camp Travis and Kelly Field. To others it will be the first pil- grimage to a great shrine of Amer- ican valor iIn battle—the Alamo, | where 172 Texas soldiers, fighting an army of 4,000 nearly a century ago, died like the Spartans at| ‘Thermopylae. On the plaza of the Alamo will | be the reviewing stand for the big| parade the second day of the con-| vention. There Gen. John J. Persh-| fng will see again the men whom he was called to Washington in 1917 to take command of the American army. | In the reviewing stand with Gen- eral Pershing will be Field Mar- appear, too. Among these Will be Verdun, mascot of the Fifteenth fleld artillery that was foaled in 1917 on the battlefield after which it is named. Besides bands, advancing colors and marching columns, there will be a reproduction of a night in France to remind the veterans of 1917 and. 1918. Regular army sol- diers are the actors for this drama, and a large plece of the military reservation at Fort 8am Houston is their stage. They have dug trenches. marked of* another ‘“no man's land,” laid mines and rehearsed the battle, which is to be a huge dis- play of pyrotechnics. Louisville, Detroit, Miami, Buf- falo and Seattle are contenders for next year's convention, while Bos- ton and Los Angeles dominate the field for the 1930 bidding. CURTIS ON AUTO TOUR OF INDIANA Campaigning Torough Thickly Populated Calumet Region En Route with Senator Curtis in | Indiana, Oc}. 5 (M—Senator Curtis, | republican vice presidential nominee, campalgned through the thickly populated Calumet region of north- ern Indiana today on an automobile tour in company with party candi- dates of the Hoosier state, Back At Grind After a day of recreation yester- shal Sir Edmund H. H. Allenby commander of the British army which liberated the Holy Land; Maj. George Scapini, blinded war hero of France, now a mecmber of | the chamber of deputics, and Col. | Charles A. Lindbergh, who, like many of the marching men, re-| ceived his earliest army training at | A San Antonio. Leading the parade as grand marshal will be Jol Lecaumont; Buck, a retired officer, who, as a, major general in war time, carried | out the first American offensive at| Cantigny. Armed rid- | ing quirt, he led the first wave of the attack. For this example of bravery to his men he was deco- rated with the Distinguished Se Ace Cross and later made a cheva- lier of the French Legion of Honor, The automobile which Woodrow Wilson used when he was com- mander-in-chlef of the men who answered his call to “make the| world safe for democracy,” will roll | aidng in the Legion parade. Mule: with a visit to Lincoln Fields ace track the scnator was back to the political grind in earnest with a SC ule carrying him to Gary, Ind., where he is expected to speak to- night. 'he veteran campaigner, who cd Chicago early this week siderably fatigued from his long and arduous trip through the west, undertook today's assignment with some reluctance and only with the understanding that he would not be called upon for more than one talk. tepresentative Will Wood of this district led the senator on the auto- mobile tour and he was accompanted by virtually all the Indiana republi- can candidates, including Senator Robinson who {s running for re- election. ch city almost joins the other up in this industrial corner of northeastern Indiana and republican leaders always count heavily on this | region. Wait For Senator The Hoosier leaders awaited the NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1928, this morning and from there the trall of the automobile caravaa led through Whiting, East Chicage, In- diana Harbor, Hammond, Hobart, Lowell, Crown Point and Gary. The vice presidential nominee said he had rested well last night after his return from the race tracks. He was a jockey as a youth and loves horses. The senator was among the happiest of the specta- tors but was one of the few who didn't bet. He took his fun in pick- ing the horses but his only tip to the friends who besieged him at the track was “keep your money in your pocket.” Upon his return tonight to Chi- cago, Senator Curtis will spend to- morrow resting at his suite in the Edgewater Beach hotel and Sunday he will leave on a trip into North Dakota, Minnesota and Wisconsin. WILL INVRSTIGATE INTO PHILA. TRAFFIC SQUAD District Attorney Monaghan Believes It Responsible For Flow of Alcohol Philadelphia, Oct. 5 (UP)—The investigation of alleged police cor- ruption probably will be extended to the traffic squad today. This group so far has not been questioned in connection with the 410,000,000 liquor ring which is be- lieved to be operating here, but Dis- trict Attorney John Monaghan in- dicated yesterday that he thought the trailic police were partly re- sponsible for the flow of illicit al- cohol through Philadelphia. The civil service commission's in- ation yesterday was featured by the charge that Charles Beckman, suspended captain of detectives, had made $150,000 in the last two or three years. Beckman denied that he had accepted graft, and sald he made between $12,000 and $14,000 | by purchasing tickets for {riends to the Tunney-Dempsey fight. He also denied ever meeting or accepting money from Max (Boo Boo) Hoff, alleged leader in the al- cchol ring here. Reports that the traffic squad would be involved in the investiga- tion arose after the questioning of Capt. Charles Fox of that division. He was before the grand jury for an hour and a half. A county detective was on his way to Albany, N. Y., today to seek the signature of Gov. Alfred E. Bmith to extradition papers for Barish Poley, suspected bootlegger who fled to New York after the start of the grand arrival of Senator Curtis at the state | jury investigation.

Yesterday *“Bossy” was sentenced to serve two months in jail and to pay fines totalling $545, all because he established a gasoline tilling station without a permit. Violated Laws The mayor has been convicted on numerous charges growing out of the establishment of the gasoline station. He appealed, but later pleaded gulity. He accepted the sen- tence without a murmur and started the jail term immediately. Whether he will be forced to serve the full sentence is a question, for some of his friends have already started plans to obtain a parole for him. In the meantime, however, “Bossy” is prisoner No. 48,886, and today he sat down to the prison breakfast of cereal, evaporated milk, coffee and bread without butter. Can Use Phone He will be allowed to use a tele- phone and the prison rule on visitors will be lifted for him, so that he will be able to attend to any business of the city of Newburyport without leaving the jail. During the mayor's absence, Edward P. Bars, president of the city council, will be acting mayor. “Bossy” once defiant and some- what noisy in his fight to maintain bis gasoline station, listened in silence yesterday when Digtrict At. torney William G. Clark, moving for sentence, called him “a willful, empty-headed youth who has never grown up.” “Gome to His Head” “His election, which may be called an accident, has gone to his head, and what he needs is a hot applica- tion of the law to take down that cranial swelling,” the district attor- ney said. Judge Nelson P. Brown of the superior court, in sentencing | “Bossy™ said: “I think I understand the | psychology of the defendant in re- gard to the rigors of human exist- |ence, but I don't sympathte with | the way he sometimes expresses it.” Although part of the mayor's sentence called for one month at | hard labor, it was not thought that {he would be called upon to do work |of that kind, for there is no hard labor to be done at the jail. The only | work prisoners do consists of keep- ing the premises clean. REDEEM APARTMENT HOUSE Edward Greensteln and Hyman |Rubin have redeemed the Paradise apartments, which will not be sold |at public auction as ordered by the |superior court in June to satisfy a 1$26,540 mortgage. In the original decision handed down by Judge | Arthur F. Ells, the property, which |is located on the corner df North jand Elm streets, was ordered sold |at public auction on October 20, |2, by paying $15,000 to Morris Co- hen, holder of the note. | The payment was made yvesterday | according to a certificate led in the |city clerk’s office. Together with it | was filed a mortgage deed for $10,~ | 000, with the property as security. Cohen filed a quit-claim deed to the ‘.’!pm‘tm?nt house and property at | 283 North street which was alao in- |cluded in the foreciosure action. The apartment house is valued at| | | 55,000, e MADE AS THEY MAKE IT IN SWEDEN The loaf of Swedish Rye Bread that grocers sell is made strictly according to a famous Swedish recipe.
