HOLDS UP TRAFFIC
Traffic over the Morrison, Hawthorne
and Burnside bridges became so badly
tangled Ahis morning that many east
ouie residents were delayed upward of
an hour-in getting to the west side.
The difficulty was precipitated by
the repairing of the Morrison bridge in
the driving of piling at the Morrison
street draw Span, which was closed for
45 minutes between 8 and 9 o"clock.
'The first closed period was between 8
and 8:20 o'clock and the second from
t :30 to 9 o'clock.
Some of the streetcars caught in
ftie first closfng were unable to get
through the Jam before the draw was
closed again and the automobiles in
their effort to turn back to another,
bridge crossing succeeded in tangling
traffic so badly that it became al
most immovable at Hawthorne and
Burnside bridges.

- I .
Administration Scathingly De
nounced at Legion Meeting
at New Orleans by Na
tional Commander MacNider.
New Orleans. La., Oct. 16. While
his "buddies' shouted and stamped
their approval, retiring National Com
mander Hanford MacNider opened
the fourth annual convention of the
American Legion here today with a
militant declaration that the soldier
bonus fight has only just begun.
From out of the long, hafd battle he
and bis aides directed unsuccessfully
to put the "adjusted compensation"
bill over the top at Washington. Mac
Nider asserted that "no one , man un
touched by war, .without kith or kin to
those who served, no one group, finan
cial or otherwise, can stand bettween
the wishes of the American people and
the fulfillment of what they believe
to be a government obligation.
He made no direct reference to the
vote by President Harding on the Mc-Cumber-Fordney
bonus measure, nor
to the little group of senators who sus
tained the veto, but he left no doubt
as to whom he- referred as he carefully
aimed, each of his barbed verbal shots
at the opponents of "adjusted compen
sation." for the nation's ex-soldiers.
3IAJORITY WITH HIM
"A great, well financed attack which
we cannot help but feel as sordid and
selfish has given us one little setback,
but those who represented the people
at Washington- are with us by a great
majority." MacNider added as he dwelt
upon the passage of the McCumber
Fordney bill" by a vote of 333 to 70 in
the house and 47 to 12 in the senate.
"We have only Just started to fight,"
he said. "The adjusted compensation
legislation is right. We know it is
right always prevails in America, It
is not a question of raising the neces
sary funds. A maximum annual pay
ment of $100,000,000 is not even an
appreciable fraction of a S 4,000. 000,000
national budget. That is simply cam
ouflage, thrown up to hide the real
issue. ' "
"It is a question of promises unfilled,
a question of whether, the man who
offered his life; to his country In time
of need is-to be left with the feeling
that ! his -country i is ,unj-ast and un
grateful. ." ' '7:
