Legion Opens Second Meet At Cleveland Seating of Delegates Principal Business Bef ore Convention For Today Cleveland, Ohio, 8ept. 27 More than one thousand delegates were In the Hipodrome theater this morn ing when Franklin D'Olier, national commander, called to order the second annual convention of the American Legion. The theater re sebles'a political convention, vari ous state delegations being desig nated by standards. The convention prepared to ad journ at noon to witness the parade this afternoon of approximately 20,000 former service men and wo men. After the preliminaries, a re port was expected from the cre dentials committee on two ques tions, which, the executive commit tee last night failed to decide. These were ratio of representation to department membership and whether posts in foreign countries will be allowed votes in the conven tion, Seats in Question. Whether an additional delegate would be seated by states having a mapor fraction of one thousand paid up members affected twenty- ' three votes. The question of the seating of delegates or their proxies from foreign countries or oulying terri torial possessions of the United States involved 86 votes. Pending decision or these two questions, the voting strength at the convention ranged between 1047 and 1156. Legion organizations in Mexico, Panama, Philippine Islands, Porto ico, Argentine, Belgium, British Isles, Canada, Chile China, Cuba, France, Guatemala. Japan, Poland, Samoa and Santo Domingo were involved. The executive committee decided last night that representation in the convention should be on the basis of paid up national dues August 28, last, which on that date numbered 818,680. There were strong omt tion to this ruling by many states, 2,000,000 Members. R. G. Creviston, director of or ganization, said more than two r.-fl- lion men have joined the Legion. He explained the disparity between that figure and the number of na tional dues received represent de- linquentsiand unacknowledged pay ments fn ational dues. Veterans of all the allied nations, it is said will start a movemetu t the convention to form their own "League of Nations." The propoww amalgamation will include soldiers organizations of the United States; the Great War Veterans associa tion of Great Britain, the Union of Fighters of France and several other French associations.

Good wages the phases of the negotiations with Jaipan,- growing- out of the proposed antirJapanese. land law In Califor nia, but the impression has gone out that a proposal from Tokio that the question be referred to a Joint commission for solution would be unacceptable. The conversations regarding the California law which have been fo ing on between Ambassador Shide hara of Japan and state department officials are continuing and so far as has been- learned the proposals for a joint commission has not been .'ormally communicated to Wash- ngton by the Japanese govern ment. Progress Unknown. What progress, if any, has been made in the negotiations has not been disclosed. The attitude of the tsate department is described as one calculated to prevent the de velopment of a feeling of alarm in the United States that mtgnt ap-, proach even approximately that which appears to be growing in Japan. Conflicting opinions of both American and Japanese authorities on international law are said to have made the task of the state de partment officials and the Japanese imbassador more dififcult. Propo nents of the" California law say that California in enacting a measure barring the Japanese In this coun- I 'j-y from owning land in that state vould be refusing to the Japaneset to rights or" privileges which are not refused by Japanese law to Americans in Japan. Japan contends that the Califor nia law, which is to be voted on (ill November is discriminatory be cause it does not apply to all for eigners alike as does the Japanese law. during, the past summer gave son for them to work and for the mpst part all hoboes are apparently well provided with means.

A "new face" Is a reminder that Sergeant mi-shell S. Rankin, Cinnatl's first liero of the recent world war, ex perlenced the horrors of the terrl ble conflict. It was while fighting near Sols .nn In the great Aisne-Marne drive that a stream of German ma chine gun bullets tore a hole in Rankin's right shoulder, nearly tearine the arm off. Some of tho enemy's bullets cut his neck, nar rowly mtssing the Jugular vein, rip ped out seventeen teeth and cut off his lower Jaw and half of his tongue. Another stream of bullets went through his left hand. He received first aid only after walking back three and a half miles. Nearly dying from thirst an dloss of blood, Rankin could not swallow food nor drink for five days. After being fed fluids through his nose, he miraculously recovered. The remains of his shattered Jaw were sewed back ln place, pieces of bone were removed from his leg and transplanted ln his Jaw, strips of skin and flesh were cut off his chest, turned up and, without be ing completely severed from his chest, were grown onto the lower part of his face, forming a new Jaw. Rankin's "new face" has been more than a year In the making. Dr. William T. Coughlin, St. John's hospital, St. Louis, did the work. Spending over two years In hos pitals in France, New York and St. Louis, Rankin underwent 22 Important operations, in addition to much detail work. Dr. Cough lin is yet to perform three major ODerattons on Rankin, wno ex neots to return to St. Louis after visiting his mother at Cynthia, Ky. "I have not chewed a bite of i food for more than two years living on fluids, but Dr Coughlin is going to Implant more bone ln my Jaw, adjust a set of false teeth and then I will be able to bite Into a heefsteak once more." said Ran kin.
