THE SUNDAY OREGONIATf, PORTLAND. AUGUST 8, 1920 IS V K V AMERICAN LEGION LEADER VISITS CITY Bonus Legislation Proving Vital Topic of Interest. OREGON OFFICERS ATTEND Franklin D'Olier Will Speak to Members Generally Monday Xight at Armory. - That there is intense interest among: American Legion men in all parts of the country over the proposed "four fold plan" of soldiers' aid legislation which was passed by the house of rep resentatives just before adjournment of congress and will undoubtedly be taken up for consideration with the opening of the next session, was the declaration of Franklin D'Olier, na tional commander of the American Legion, who arrived in Portland last night. Mr. D'Olier, who is a Quaker and i hails from the city of Philadelphia, is j making an . eight weeks' swing j through the western states, visiting the various posts and conferring with state and local - officials. He is ac- companied by Mrs. D'Olier, whom he i introduced last v night as his "com-1 mandlng oficer," and James E. Darst . of New York, one of the associate edi- tors of the national weekly publica tion of the legion. The party was met, at the depot upon arrival at 10 o'clock last night by a reception committee composed of Mayor Baker, Lane Good ell, department vice-commander; W. B. Follett, one of the national vice commanders; E. J. Elvers, department adjutant; George A. 'White, adjutant general; Mr. and Mrs. Dow Walker; Mrs. W. A, Eivers, head pf the wom en's auxiliary; Frank Moore, and Har old Warner of Pendleton, representa tive of the Pendleton post. They were escorted to the Portland hotel, where they will stop during their stay in Portland. Bonos Plana Interest. "I find unusual interest everywhere In the bonus legislation," said Com mander D'Olier" last night. "In the western states greatest Interest seems to center on the land settlement pro vision of the four-fold bonus plan, while in the industrial centers the home aid, vocational training and adjustment of compensation .on a cash basis command equal interest. Al though I am vitally interested in the matter of this legislation I am not actively pushing it at this time, as I believe it is a matter to be taken up by the next administration, which will be elected at the national convention in Cleveland, September 27, 23 and 29." In regard to the Legion's stand against bolshevism and radicalism in all forms D'Olier reiterated the, firm position of the organization against euch powers that tend towards over throw of the government. "The Centralia affair made a tre mendous stir throughout the east, he said. "It serveri to crvstallize the sentiment of the Legion and to bring it into an even stronger position than before along lines of Americanism. In regard to organised labor, how ever, the legion has taken no stand. and some of our strongest leaders and . best members are members of labor unions. There is no more reason why a good union man cannot be a good Legion man, or vice versa, than why a Presbyterian or a republican could not make a good Legion man. The Legion has no part in the discussion between capital and labor. Legion Growth Large, "My trip over the country has made me realize the growth of the Legion just during the last few months, and the tremendous interest shown in it. In many of the smaller places we have visited it has not been uncommon for legion members to motor &0 milt: or more in from the country to attend meetings, and at a meetfng I attended in Arizona an Indian member of the post came in a score of miles on horseback. The interest shown is tre mendous, and is equally ken in all parts of the country." Mr. and Mrs. D'Olier and Mr. Darst will spend today enjoying the city and highway and no events of a legion character are planned. The yisitOrs will be taken over the Columbia high way during the morning and after noon by W. B. Follett, past state commander, and George A. White, ad jutant-general of the state. The even ing they will spend quietly, resting 11 PERFECT ff 1 PLAYER .ROLL I J SERVICE In line with our policy to give the very best Player Roll Serv ice in this city, we carry all the Q. R.

JIMMY 0111 IS BACK CLOTHIER TELLS OF VISIT TO EXGLAXD AXD SCOTLAND. Americans .Are Declared to Be Xeater Dressers Than British. Conditions Held Same. American men.'- and women are neater dressers than their BritlBh cousins, in the opinion of Jimmy Dunn, Portland clothier who with . Mrs. Dunn has just returned from a three months' journey to England. While overseas they were the guests of Mr. Dunn's brother and relatives. During his stay in the islands Mr. Dunn looked into the clothing situation and yesterday he declare that the condi tions there and In America are aoout the same. ' There, as here, he said, prices will not go down until produc tion is increased and the labor prob lem settled. ' Britain's recovery from the war is truly remarkable, he said. Nothing remains that reminds one of the great est conflict of modern times except for the presence of great schools where men crippled and blinded by war are being taught trades. "Like all clothiers, I did the usual thing," said Mr. Dunn. "Just as soon as I landed I began looking at clothes. When I set foot in London I discov ered that the average man was poorly dressed as compared to the average American. I think this is partly due to the after effect of the war and the high cost of clothing. But, too, it is due to carelessness, as the absence of pressing and shoe shining parlors indicated. "The so-called upper ten,' however, dress well. They are the ones who are really guides when it comes to fashions. "The American women dress neater than the British -women, also, with the exception of evening attire. Here is where the English woman excels, believe. While they do not care, seem ingly, about their street dresses, they are ultra-particular about evening clothes. As to the efforts now being made to make England dry, Mr. Dunn is of the opinion that it is a long way off. En route home from England Mr. Dunn stopped off in New York. He said the clothing conditions there are such that no settled prices can be ex pected. HO WAT'S POWER . WANES Miners Sent Back to AVork Despite Refusal to Issne Order. - PITTSBURG, Kan., Aug. 7.
