Oct IS The placement of disabled service men "under conditions that are crim inal and relating to slavery" was charged by Director Forbes of the veterans' bureau, in an address today at the first meeting of the bureau's district managers. Colonel Forbes criticised the system by whih service men had been placed in training and in his address later through a state ment announcing liis disapproval of contracts held by 33 schools and individuals for training dis abled veterans. In this connec tion he told the district mana gers that in a number of cases they had been derelict in their duty. Will Wreck "Machines" "The word has also gone around that certain districts have their own little political machines here in. Washington to run affairs cf that district." hi said. "I want to warn those men who may have such an idea that I'm going to wreck all political machines, and before. I am through with this position this bureau is going to be operated on sound, modern business principles and every phase of it is going to be clean and above board."

IS The new face-on-the-ticket rule of the New York Central railroad has put a stop to the old practice ot transferring or selling commuta tion tickets to suburbanites. Hut the commuters didn't like the idea and they groaned as the cameras clicked. .Their protests were unavailing, however, for the railroad decreed that no more commutation tick ets would be issued after Octo ber 1, unless a photograph of the holder was attached to the ticket. The rush to have pictures taken wa3 so great during tire last week of grace that almost every station along the railroad's lines was converted into an emergency photograph gallery. All available photographers were rounded up and posted at stations, thus giving the commut er an opportunity of being "mugged" while waiting for hifc train to carry him to work in the city. . After the first rush, these pho tographers were no longer said, "look pleasant, please." The com muters saiS it was impossible. An observing train conductor re marked that it was curious, that many of the photographs showed scowling countenances. The railroad explained that one of the first effects of the new regulations was a tremendous falling off in the sale of commu tation t ckets at a small station on the West Shore division. Al though this station had only a corporal's guard of commuters, it used to sell 40 commutation tick ets every month. This was the explanation, ac cording to the railroad: The commutation rate from this station was only 32 cents, whereas the regular round-trip fare was $2.70. Some one was buying commutation tickets and then farming them out by the day at scalper's rates- $1.50. On a transaction of this kind the passenger saved $1.20. the scalp er made $1.18 and the railroad lost $2.32. he name of the new minister from The Netherlands to the Unit ed States is Dr. Everywyn.

When you wake up with back ache and dull 'misery in the. kid ney region it generally means you have been eating too much meat, says a well known authortiy.

When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must re lieve them, like; you relieve your bowels; removing all the body's urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twing es.

Adr, TICKETS MUST BOB PHOTOS LEGION READY FOB CONCLAVE Relief of Unemployed, Sol-; dier Aid and Other Quer ies on List ASK BERGDOLL'S RETURN On October 31 Veterans of World War Will Meet At Indianapolis INDIANAPOLIS. Ind.. Oct. IS. National headquarters of the Am erican legion announced today that it is expected that the lesion will, in its third annual convention at Kansas City beginning October 1. reaffirm its stand for adjust ed compensation for veterans. Headquarters predicts that the convention will lay plans for a "fight to the finish" on that is sue before Congress and that it will take steps to relieve distress among 900,000 ex-service men who are reported to be unem ployed. More than 1000 voting dele gate will be present, represent ing 11,000 posts of the lfgiou. Preparations have been made to care for 100,000 out-of-town visi tors in Kansas City during the convention. Sentiment Expressed A jsurvoy of legion sentiment throughout. the country, as ex pressed in instructions to dele gates and in actions by state and county conventions of the legion reveals, says the announcement, the following additional issues on which it is likely the national le- Kinn assembly will declare itself It is held certain at headquar ters that immediate action will be taken for temporary if not perma nent relief of the jobless veteran A national committee of the or ganization has been making a study of relief measures following a country-wide survey. It is affirmed by some members of the legion that passage of the Sweet bill, creating the Veterans bureau, has not fully overcome all the difficulties which have prevented disabled men from ob taining all their rights, and this Question will be considered. In each of the 14 regional districts of the Veterans' bureau a repre rentative of the legion has been assisting the bureau in adjusting points between posts and individuals.- These representatives will be able to present to the conven tion reports showing just what the new bureau is or is not doing. Aid Measuro Up. Further plans for obtaining passage of the federal-adjusted compensation bill are to be con sidered. Legion representatives pay that almost every state con vention since the recommitment of the measure has passed resolu tions of finest support for its pol icy of pushing the bill. The or ganization's national legislative committee will present a report on the sub jert. with recommenda tions for further procedure. The convention, it is expected, will consider the question of limi tation of armaments in view of the importance of the international conference in Washington openitfg on Armistice day. At its first and second national conventions, the legion declared its course as ame dium between jingoism and blind pacifism, and it military policy that of preparedness. Definition Demanded Questions have arisen among the membership concerning the definition of the legion's policy of absolute neutrality in politics, the states and posts being at vari ance in their interpretations of the rulings. The Wyoming depart ment has proposed an amendment to the constitution to allow "pro tection of the candidacy of any person seeking public, office when his election would, in the pudg ment of the legion, promote the purposes for which the legion was organized as defined In the pre amble to its constitution." The legion is pledged to "law and order" and "neutrality in dis putes between capital and labor," it 13 pointed out. Means of disci plining single posts or individuals, which violate these rules are to be brought up in the convention. To DIrcuss Oriental The legion's recommendations at its first two conventions that "the so-called Gentlemen's Agree ment with Japan be abrogated" and that "foreign-born Japanese be forever barred from American citizenship" is expected to come up again, ine legion in California. Texas. Arizona, Washington, Colo rado and Nebraska has supported the enactment of laws prohibiting land-holding by the Japanese. Washington legionaires went on record as favoring the return of all Japanses in this couontry to their native land. Whether the legion will stand for civil service preference for wold war. veterans not only in appoints osnts but in promotions is expected to be np for decision. Reds and Bergdoll Almost every legion state con vention has passed resolutions de manding the return of the slacker Bergdoll. and this point, with a review-of the publication of slack er and draft-deserter lists, will come up for discussion. It ia be lieved likely that the movement for the release of Eugene, V. Debs also will be considered.! Legion committees have gathered a mass of information on these subjects for the convention's guidance. The national committee on na val affairs will present a report dealing with the size of the navy, the relative importance of the sur face fleet, air forces and under water craft, disintegration of the naval reserve, etc. The military affairs committee will offer a report, chleHy on the possibilities of legion encoarag- WEDNESDAY MORNING. ment of the fiationar guard and organized reserve. All told, na tional headq4arters announces a dozen national committers will present Important reports to the convention aind several of them will make farlreachlng recommen dations. On the las day of the" conven tion a national commander, five national vic-commanders and a national chaplain will be elected.. There are announced candi dates. New Orleans. Haitimore.
