race Two The Capital Journal, Salem, Oregon Wednesday, October 19, MEXICO LOOTER IS HERE Chamber of Deputies Paymaster and His Chauffeur Believed In XT. S. By Louil P. Kirbr. Mexico City, Oct. 1. Gay companions, who helped to spend but were unwilling or powerless to relp In a crlaia, are reported to have been the causa of the down tall of Eduardo H. Dta, paymas ter of the chamber of deputies, who disappeared with about 3250, 000 and is supposed to be some where in the United States. The young paymaster was a conspicu ous and dashing figure In every gathering and was always sur rounded by a crowd of friends or parasites. He was particularly fond of gambling at the basketball games and lost considerable money in this way. These games, because of the gambling feature, as well as the dexterity of the players, al ways attract large crowds here. Betting Is heavy, and large sums are won and tost wiinin a iew minutes. Hhanffpiir Missine-. Too. When Diaz disappeared his ehaulfeur, uhw, was found to be missing. This led to the belief ttiut the paymaster left Menico City In his motor car. One report heard here is that he crossed the bor der at Laredo and is now in the United States. Another is that he Is hiding somewhere in Mexico Having failed to reach the Inter national line in his car because of bud loads. The disappearance of the py master became known when mem bers of the chambor of deimtiei and persons employed In the cham ber went to collect tbelr salaries. There was not enough money lu the safe to make the usual pay ments, and this caused efforts t Legion Delegates Number Famous Men of World One of the greatest gatherings of Internationally famous individ uals in American history Is to mark the annual National conven tion of the American Legion at Kansas City the end of this month according to a letter received to day by George A. White, from Na tional Legion headquarters.

Both will address the great gath ering of American ex-oervlce men. General Foch will be escorted to Kansas City by General Pershing who also will appear on the pro gram. A number of AuierUun statesmen and notables wil) at tend Including the governors of a dosen or more states. The one-cent-a-mile rate, re cently announcetl by all railroads will make possible a general at tendance, It was stated, and ef forts will be made in advance to Insure the luglon delegates a safe return In event of a general strike. The convention will end three days before the general tie up of railroads has been set for, and thus ull can reach their des tination excepting Pacific coast delegates and those who are on railroad lines listed by the Nov ember 1 wulk-out of trainmen. Fourteen delegates have been elected to represent Oregon and an equal number of alternates to replace any who cannot go. The advance attendance estimates of the arrangements committee Is 100,000 ex-service men and Kan sas City is getting ready to re ceive and entertain that number. The convention opens October 30, and continues thre days. four suits urougni n .. r L.. by State Industrial TOeUC ITUIlttC Accident Commission Suits for the collection of an aggregate sum of $325.43 have been filed In the Marion county circuit court by the state Indus trial accident commission against four logging concerns who signi fied their intentions of coming under the requirements of the commission, but nare not paid the necessary fees.

Group To Combat Klan Abandons National Union Chicago, Oct. 18. The National Unity council, formed to combat the Ku Klux Klan, has abandoned its plan for a national organiza tion, according to a letter sent out yesterday by former Governor Ed ward F. Dunne. The council will, instead, sub stitute a plan for a general com mittee to foster kindlier feelings between all classes of Americans and the elimination of racial and religious animosities. cot lulu l oniniiinleatlon with Diaz It was then learned that he liud JtPgtl'tioHS AskinST been missing from the city for sev-i . eral days. 1'ersons employed In the pay master's office say that they were not aware that anything was wrong until It became necessary to seek Dluz to get additional money wlUi which to meet the chamber of deputies' payroll. Accountants arc making an ex amination of the paymaster's books. New Kvstem Planned. It is probable that a new system ot paying the salaries of deputies and employes will be adopted for the purpose ot more closely check ing the paymaster. Diaz is not the first to get into trouble because Ot the loose system which enabled a paymaster to help himself to the funds at any time. Salinas, the predecessor ot Dlas, was ac cused of carrying off a large sura, and there were other scandals. Dlat according to his friends, was the victim of a bad system, lis was left lu a position to dip his bands into the treasury and, be ing young and pleasure-loving he aoon found himself too deeply In volved fur escape. This, they say caused him to take what he could and flee when he kucw that ex poeure was near. A checking system, friends of the paymaster say, would have aaved Diaz and his family from diet a race and probably would have prevented nil scandals in tre past Resolution Asks Laws Permitting Light Wines, Beer St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 18. A reso lution calling upon congress and President Harding to enact legis lation and amend the national prohibition enforcement act to per mit the manufacture of light wines and beer, In order that the breweries mipht be reopened, thereby relieving the unemploy ment situation, was presented In the meeting of the city unemploy ment commission here yesterday.
