A committee from the legion called
on W.-N. Delvo, -editor of the Toverl,
and submitted a retraction of the ar

refused to do and members of the
committee aver that Relvo added: "I
don't believe tbe American legion la

not. Of the 1700 county veterans only
a few have joined this chamber of

say several Astoria firms have with

Texas Democrats Are

Politicians Declare
THE ALL FEATURE CAR
The new Case Six with its powerful Motor, its
handsomely finished, roomy body gives you every
thing you want in an automobile. It gives the man
of lesser means a chance to enjoy and drive the
best, it gives the man who could afford .to pay
twice as much everything that he wants, to satisfy
his motoring desires. It's the car that meets the
demand of both Farmer and City man.
The new Case Four Passenger with its long and
graceful lines and many added new features will
far surpass any car that could be bought for more
money. This car can be had in colors with uphol
stering to match:

Plans for nationalizing the "American
Party," organized here yesterday by
a group of dissatisfied Texas Demo
crats, will be put Into effect upon ap
'pointment of a special committee for
'that purpose, it was stated today.
Meanwhile the other faction of
t Democrats, pledged to a plan of re
' construction within the party, went
ahead with plans for a line of attack
under the leadership of former Sena
Itor Joseph V. Bailey.
Political observers declare the Tac
tions simply are divided as to the
means to attain a common end and
find significance in the following ut
terances of Mr. Bailey:
We intend to follow the principles
adopted -festerday wherever they may
lead us. If the Democratic part, state
and nation), comes to these principles,
then we are with the Democratic par
ty. If not, as I say, we will follow
these principles wherever they may
lead us."
A Texas convention of the new par
ty will be called by the executive com-
