4 TIIE MORNING OREGONIAN. TUESDAY, AUGUST 10, 1920U' D'OUER STRESSES SERVICE OF LEGION Hall Crowded With Oregon ex-Soldiers Hail Chief. WOMEN GREET COMANDER Radical Element Has Been Stopped by Stand of 10,000 Posts and Members, Throng Is Told. "Continued service to our country!" Thus in five words did National Commander I'OIier last night sum up the real purpose of the American Le gion, the foundation stone upon which it Is builded and the ultimate motive which has carried forward its growth by leaps and bounds and will continue to make it more powerful as the years o by. "In a little more than a year the American X.egion has grown from a mere idea to a great organization having for its members representative American men in all parts of the country, with 10,000 posts and over a million and a half members," said the national commander. "Such a growth has never been experienced before by any organization in the history of this country, and was only possible be cause of two things because the Ideals were right and because the or ganization was planned along prac tical lines. Com r den hip 1m Aim. The purpose of the American Le gion is given in its constitution, which you have read.. But summed up in a few words that purpose is to keep alive the spirit of service to our coun try, which fired the American soldiers to great deeds during the war, and to keep alive likewise the spirit of com radeship among those who answered the country's call." The armory was nearly filled with x-service men. with here and there doughboys and gobs In uniform among those clad in "civies." A large group of women, representatives of the Portland post of the legion aux iliary, was also in the hall. The platform and the hall were appropriately decorated with Amer ican flags, and when the national commander entered, accompanied . by department officials and officers of the Portland post, he was given a tremendous ovation. Following a musical programme. Commander D'Olier was introduced by Chaplin Gil bert of Astoria, new department com mander. On Tour of Postn. In opening his address Commander D'Olier explained that he is on an eight weeks' swing through the west visiting the various posts and confer lng with department and local offi cials. "I was fortunate enough to have beer one of the original 20 who met in France and discussed the formation of such an organization there, and In view of that the present trip has been a wonderful revelation." he said. "It has brought to me vividly the tre mendous growth of the organization in an unusually short time. !""In a few years." he said, "the serv ice men will be running this country. Not because they are service men. or because they are associated in any kind of organization. But because the same men who were the picked young men of the nation in time of need will be the men who wMll have the initiative and force to take the leadership. "When the war came and we responded to the call many of us for the first time felt that satis faction which comes from service. And so service must be. the keynote of the future, service to our country and to our comrades. Radical!! Stopped by Lesrlon. "Lcs than a year after it had been organized, the American Legion was called upon to take a firm stand upon one of the great problems before the nation. The men were scarcely back from France before there came the outcries of radicals and revolutionists from within. The stand which the American Legion took upon that is sue was so clear that the radical ele ment was stopped.' We had met force with force in France and we were prepared to do it If need be in America. We who had dedicated our lives to the protection of our country from its foes from without stood ready to give our lives, if necessary, to protect our country from its ene mies within." Although Commander D'Olier made no reference to it. no doubt he had in mind the outrage last Armistice day at Centralia. This morning' the IVOlier party leaves for Centralia, v here Commander D'Olier will visit the graves of the first of the Ameri can Legion heroes who were called to give their lives in the struggle with these foes from within. A tre mendous reception awaits him there, according to word which has been received by the Portland post from the Centralia officials. Tolerance Hii Plea. In closing, the national commander urged tolerance in the matters of or ganization and the development of atronger ties among the "buddies." Commander D'Olier, who. with Mrs. D'Olier and James E. Darst, asso ciate editor of the national legion publication, arrived In Portland Sat urday night, closes a busy visit here this morning when he leaves by art early train for the north. The party spent Sunday in touring the highway, but yesterday was given over entirely to legion matters. In the morning the national com mander was taken by automobile to Fa I em. where he was the guest of Capitol post for luncheon. The re turn was made in time for a banquet at 6 o'clock at the Benson hotel, ten dered by department officers, officials of Portland post and national dele gates. The address to ex-service men at the armory followed. At the banquet at the Benson. Com mander D'Olier took occasion to pay a tribute to the work of George A. "White, saying that he was particu larly pleased to be in Portland be cause it was the home of Colonel White. He said that White was one of the leaders in the formation of the legion in France and said that as long as legion members are willing to give their time so unselfishly to the or ganization its future was assured. Following Mr. D'Oiler's address at the armory local American Legion lead ers and members of the auxiliary were called upon and an informal re ception to the national commander as held. not be permitted to land in Ireland, he was surprised when the com mander of the destroyer broke the news that he would not even be permitted to. go to Liverpool. The original Intention was to land him at Fishguard, but the govern ment wirelessed the destroyer order ing him to be taken to Penzance. Passengers on the Baltic were sur prised by the mobilization of de stroyers about the steamer. Baltic Commander Praise.

He rushed from his office, which is in the far west corner of the base ment, up to the sheriff's office, where he thought he had heard a shot. As he entered, Patterson, whom Phelps did not recognize as one of the pris oners, was at the jail door. Phelps walked in and asked what the trouble was. Prisoner TelU of "Riot. "Had & little jail riot," Patterson smilingly answered. Phelps said: "Is everything all right?" One of the prisoners, Owens, an swered: "Everything's all right." Owens was standing in the main lobby of the sheriff s office and it is now presumed that he had just left the inner office, where Wyrick was attending the wounded officer and where Hart, the slayer, stood guard.

Evidence at Inquest Throws No Light on Motive of Shooting and Attempted Suicide by Dentist. NASHVILLE, Tenn.. Aug. 9. The Tennessee legislature, meeting: in ex traordinary session to act on suf frage, today heard Governor Roberts urge prompt ratification and then ad journed until tomorrow. Ratification resolutions, leaders said tonight, will be offered tomor row and referred to committees. A vote is not regarded as probable be fore the end of the week.. J Both advocates and opponents of ratification in statements expressed confidence in the outcome of the fight to make Tennessee the thirty- sixth state to ratify. Anti-suffragists claimed there were enough members opposed to suffrage to defeat 4he ratification, while Mrs. Carrie Chap man Catt, president of the American Woman Suffrage association, de clared if members pledged to ratifi cation stood by their pledges, suf frage would win. The governor declared ratification should be voted promptly so that the women might "share in shaping the destiny of the republic. Citing declarations of the repub llcan and democratic platforms in favor of woman suffrage, the gov ernor declared the platforms adopted are accepted as party law." Much interest today was manifest ed in a caucus of republicans at which leaders previously had sajd an attempt would be made to pledge them to vote as a unit in favor of ratification. No action was taken to ward adopting the unit plan and sev eral of those present declared no at tempt was made to pledge the mem bers to vote favorably on ratification. Parley P. Christensen, presidential nominee of the farmer-labor party, in statement tonight said the failure of the republican caucus to indorse ratification was a direct betrayal by the republican party of its platform pledge for woman suffrage and Sena tor Harding, Will H. Hays and their associated republican leaders1 must plead guilty to the betrayal." HAYS CRGES PROMPT ACTION Connecticut Indorsement Held Means to Clarify Politics. HARTFORD, Conn., Aug. 9.

GOAL OIL FOE OF EARWIGS PESTS WHEN SURVIVE, iberating only long enough to pre pare a formal verdict, the jurors re ported to Coroner Smith that in their belief Mrs. Richards had been shot and killed by the young dentist. Evidence submitted - at the inquest threw no additional light on the tragedy of early Saturday night in Mrs. Richards' apartment. 262 Sixth street. Neighbors and police officers gave testimony identical to that given out previously in police reports of the affair. Lieutenant Goltz of the detective bureau testified that several articles of jewelry owned by Mrs. Richards were scattered about the floor when he entered the room. This, he said, indicated that the woman must have taken off the jewelry and started to return it to Bouchet Just before the fatal shots were fired. M. E. Evans testified that he went to the door of the Richards apart ment immediately after the shooting. He was afraid to enter the room be cause he could hear the clicking of the revolver.

Hays, chairman of the na tional republican committee, in which he is urged to call a special session of the Connecticut legislature to act on suffrage, was made public today. Mr. Hays declared that "your cause and that of the republican party are one. This states a proved fact in few words." He then relates action on suffrage taken by the nationa convention and says: "Individually and collectively, the effort of republicans has been to se cure ratification. Personally, let me say that 1 am sympathetic with it," ' he adds. Mr. Hays asserts that the suffrage question is not a party question, and a special legislative session is small price to pay for a clearer polit leal atmosphere. Jn conclusion h says: "I urge ratification first in th hope of clearing the political atmos phere; second, in the belief that th suppression of effective opinion works harm to the whole body politic. and, finally, in the conviction th we owe Immediate action as a meas ure of simple justice to America women." As a further argument for imme diate action in Connecticut, he says "Relieve the American woman from the necessity of claiming her const! tutional right and her sister from th fancied necessity of opposing ' th claim and you will liberate a bod of public opinion on the campaig and its issues which will prove itself to be one of our largest nationa assets." In taking definite issue with th governor, who says no emergency exists, he says: "I do not agree that so great an issue should be settled only after freeh legislative election. "Wisely or unwisely, the question whether ratification of a proposed amendment should be submitted to the state legislatures or to popular conventions composed of delegates elected upon that issue has been by the constitution of the United States vested in congress and not in the states."
