3 HALED BY LEGION Major Scapini’s Speech Applaud- of 10 Minutes by Convention San Antonio, Tex., Oct. 11 (® Peace with preparedness was the theme of addresses by two distin- guished speakers at the American Legion national convention here yes- terday. Prolonged applause greeted Major Georges Scapini of Fr and Wil- liam K. Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, they advocated universal permanent peace and adiquate national defense. Scapini, a blind war veteran, in a ringing address declared that it is a a duty of ofrmer service men to pre- serve a conception of the horrors of war for future generations and to maintain defenc and een pledged the support of the American IPederation of Labor to the Legion's campaign for national defense.

Big Demonstration In a strange tongue, which Jearned for this speech, from note printed in the Braille system, Ma- jor Scappini spoke so effectively and o intensely that he was interrupted again and again and again, and the demonstration at the end his speech lasted ten 1" iutes. “Truthfully,” he said, “when 1 feel your tremendous and think of the greeting and reception vou have given me as a representa- tive of ¥France, T am satisfied that 1 am repaid for all that 1 have lost.” This was the signal for another burst of cheering in which many congratu- lations and words of encouragement as well as cheers for [ and Scapini were shouted in ¥ French. Green promised the legion that it | need not “fear communism and the | third infernationale as long as the American Federation of TLabor stands to combat subversive move- | ments.” At the opening of fhe meeting greetings were read from the Le- gion of Valor, the Grand Army of | the Republic, the General Federa- | tion of Women's Clubs and other or- &ganizations. Assurance was given that no changes will be made in the legion constitution at this session when the | report of the committee on that subject/ ' rejecting all proposed amendments, was unanimously | adopted. The most important of | these proposals was one which | would »have permitted soldiers of other allied armies, who have be- come American citizens, since the war, membership in the legior It was found that the charter fr(m congress would not permit such :n amendment spirit A E.

The penetration of the Indians in- to the white man's country is due to their curiosity following the visit of airplanes over sectors in which the ‘lnrllans have been living.

MAIN STREET B Here Saturday or Your PRLFE TICKET (o the Strand To Death in Bronx | NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1928, HOOVER SATISFIED WITH OUTLOOK NOW Grdlial Wi Memer Ca- pign s Being Handled BY JAMES L. W Assoclated Press staft Writer Washington, Oct. 11.—P—While Herbert Hoover engages in no po- litical prophesies, he has informed his friends he iy satisfied not only {with the general outlook over the ! country, but also with the manner in 1\\'hlch the major strategy of his own campaign is working out. This strategy has been to confine his addresses to a discussion of the ernment and toskeep clear of per- { sonalities and controversies which | might obscure what he regards as |the fundamental principles in which |the public is primarily interested. Plan Followed That plan was followed in his pre- | convention campaign, and he has ad- | hered to it rigidly since his nomina- tion, although at times there has {been no small amount of pressure put 'upon him to depart from it in specific instances. Aside from his public addresses, he has made few statement for pub- lication and only one of these has dealt with claims of the opposition. This was his statement that the Kellogg-Briand treaty the greatest contribution to world peace #nd was a complete answer to the charge of the democrats that the republican party had done little in the cause of peace. Not once since the campaign opened has Hoover mentioned in an address or public statement the name of his democratic opponent and only upon a very few occasions has he referred to the democratic party or the opposition. This in itself is somewhat unusual in political campaigns. Leaders Active While Hoover himself has con- fined his efforts to outlining his posi- | tion and that of his party, republican {leaders haye been active in reply- ing to the assaults which have been made on the party record. Cabinet officers, senators and others are stumping the country in person or by radio replying to Governor Alfred E. Smith, the democratic can- didate, 'and other chieftains of the opposition party. Hoover now plans to make only four more speeches before election day and his friends assert that his plans will not be changed. His next two platform efofrts will be on eastern ground where the fight be- tween the 1wo parties wages the hottest, his third will be in the middle west, where each side has concentrated in its effort to win votes, while the last will be from the quiet of his study in his Cali- fornia home. This speech, to be made on elec- |issue and his own philosophy of gov- | constituted | tion eve, will be broadcast over a hook-up second only to that for his modification speech in Stanford university stadium, and in ita the republican presidential candidate will make a statement on the issues and will urge the polis on November € to register their choice in the national, congressional and state contests. FIND MUMMIES IN Race in Alaska Prince Rupert, B.

An opening was uncov- ered after considerable excavation and the five mummics, all in good state of preservation but of unde- termined age, were found. The tomb was divided into two |compartments. The body of what is | believed to have been the chief of |the tribe lay in one compartment.

Natives said it would take several weavers months to make one straw matting similar to those found. Inner layers of the covering were in a perfect state of preservation but the outer dozen layers appeared {to have beeq effected by moisture. The mummies apparently had been treated with some preserva- | tive, Children Found In a large compartment with the chief were the bodies of two chil- dren, similarly wrapped. In the other portion were bodies of a man and woman wrapped only in mat. ting. Fastened to the man's body were spears, arrows and other im- plements of the hunter. With the woman were needles, many pieces of animal skin and sewing material. skimo legends say that when a great chief died his seamstress and most valiant hunter were ‘killed and |buried with him. The mummies will be taken to New York for scientific examination to determine their age, Harold McCracken, one of the ex- pedition leaders, said. Teft in Spring The group of scientists left Seattle last spring and made the journey into the arctic aboard the schooner Morrissey, commanded by Captain Robert Bartlett. They went within 240 miles of Point Barrow, most northern tip of Alaska, but were blocked by ice fields. The arctic ice pack also stopped the vessel when it was only four miles from Wran- gell Island of soviet Russia. Edward Meygr and several mem- bers of the party were marooned for 10 days on Diomede Island in Bering Strait between Alaska and | Siberia, when cut off by ice from | their ship. They managed to make Prince of Wales Island, a short dis- tance away, and from there suc- | ceeded in reaching the Morrissey. | The Morrissey will proceed to New York via the Panama canal, leaving here probably on Saturday.
