But during the l!-hour parade, police had the crowd of three million persons who witnessed it under such per feet control that no one got past the street curbs except on official business.

Secretary of War Woodring, President Green of the American Federation of Labor Herbert Hoover, the governors of several states apd the mayors of several large cities who address ed the convention, nearly all saw dangerous times facing the world and looked to the legion to help pull American through them, Pal mateer declared. The convention's platform in this connection included adequate national defense, maintenance of strict neutrality and the plank for which the legion has been work ing for 14 years, universal service in case of war. A highlight of Palmateer's talk was his narrative of the bewilder ment of "hotel employes in New York City when he attempted to pay a bill with silver dollars eventually he sold all of them he had for 32 each, they were such a curiosity in the east.

Martin no Foe of Pension Age Drop Wharton Denies Charge of Roth That Governor Opposes Change - Wallace C" Wharton, executive secretary to Governor Charles H. Martin yesterday sent a letter to Representative Paul E. Roth of Multnomah county, denying the latter's recent statement in which he charged that Gorernor Martin was not in favor of reducing the limit for old age assistance from 70 to 65 years at the last legisla tive session. "Your letter to Gorernor Mar tin dated October 9 was received in his absence and will be called to his attention on his return," Wharton wrote. ; "In the meantime, permit me to say that Governor Martin at the time of making up the 1937-38 budget by the state budget divi sion Issued Instructions in July, 1936, to conduct a thorough ex amination of the state's finances to the end that the age limit for old age assistance be reduced to 65 as soon as possible keeping In mind the additional tax burden to be placed upon the counties. -inasmucn as tma was six months before the legislature con vened this does not indicate tbat the governor was at all times op posed to the reduction of the old age limit as your statement indi cates.
