HIGH TRIBUTE PAID LEGION (Continued from rage One) we knew that we were victorious and a new thrill of enthusiasm passed Into the ranks of our soldiers. "And, finally, when the armistice was signed, you wore by our side, with the French and Hritish divisions reudy to give the last push and to clear the road to Iirussells for our beloved King Albert." Commander Knifrj'ii Speech. KANSAS CITT, .Mo., Oct. 31. The issue of national adjusted compensa tion for tiie ex-service man ha3 not been at all settled, John G. Emory, national commander of t lie American lesion, declared here today In bis ad dress opening the third annual con vention of the legion. "Such moans as were used last summer to beat adjusted compensa tion cannot ultimately succeed," Com munder Emery told the Legion. "Nothing la nettled until It is settled right. "The American people are the court of Inst resort and wherever the American people have by the ballot pnssed judgment on the matter of ad Juried compensation, that Judgment has been an endorsement of the le gion's stand. "t cannot coneelvo of a congress so derelict in Its duty, so unmindful of Uh Just obligation to tlio.se who serv ed their country at great - financial loss, or, so blind to' tho wishes of our people aa to be misled again into re fusing to ndjust the economic balance between the man who went to war and the man who did not." Commander Kmery reported that "In tho face of adverso industrial conditions, which have hit the ex-service men harder than any other class, tho legion has gained In strength and its finnneial position has steadily im proved." lie suggested that tho political clause In the legion's constitution, which "will not permit any one who holds or Is seeking a salaried elective public office to hold office in tho Le gion or In any department or post thereof bo extended to Include ap pointive offices, lie added that he felt that "no person In public life, in community, statu or nation, should be allowed to speak for the. Legion, and that tho LcHion must bo allowed to continue to speak for Itself when is sues involving service men nre con cerned, and then in terms which all the world will understand." Commander Emery paid high trib- ulo to. tho -late Commander-Frederic W, Gnlbralth, Jr., who was killod in an automobile accident.; Ho said his ono aim had been to carry .through tho great program which Commander Galbraith hud left unfinished. . A notable publio service of the past year, Commander Emery pointed out. was the "frustration of a iiation-wido Gorman propaganda campaign in the United States." This, ho said, was. to start with a series of "Rhine Horror" meetings. Answered Von Much. 'The notorious propagandist, Von Mnch, believed he had so cleverly con cealed ills motivoH that lie nsked Gal braith to speak at tho first Rhine Horror meeting at Madison Square Garden," Commander Emery said. "As you will remember, Galbraith did not wait Hint long before ho spoke. Ho told Von Much on the spot what he thought of him and his project. Tho legion prepared Immediately to or ganise counter demonstrations where- over tiie pro-Germans might carry out their prc-coneeived program. Most of-those meetings were nover hold, however, for Von Marh abandoned his scheme after ono disastrous attempt at Madison Square Garden." 1 The greatest Legion achievement of the year Commander Emery said, was won for the disabled service men. its vigorous efforts resulting in creation of the veterans' bureau. "The lat national work under taken by the teguiu lias been for the relief of comrudCH who are unem ployed," Commander Emery con tinued. - "It is a duty of the legion to extend every aid to tiieso comrades and a duty which I know the legion will not fail to perform," lie said. Abroad. Commander Emery report ed that a movement was on foot in France to consolidate the numerous veterans' associations there into one united and effective body. "It is a singular tribute to us that the name proposed for the new organization Is Legion Franeaise," he noted. "In Great Jiritain, too. tho American Lo gion is the pattern after which the ex-service groups are being reformed and brought together under the name of the Hritish Legion. "Tomorrow morning." he continued "there will be called to order in Kan sas City, another great convention. convention which means the dawn of a new day in the making of better America. The women's auxiliary of th American Legion, with possibili ties unbounded, is about to become an aeeimplished fact, Independent and sell governing, a worthy compatriot of the legion." 10 E WASHINGTON, Oct. 31. Permis sion was given tho Valley und Siletz Railroad company by tho interstate commerce commission to issue $700, 000 in capital stock against its lines in Oregon for the purpose of paying off funded debts. PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 31 The Valloy and Siletz Railroad company owns a road of 39 miles from Indepen dence to Siletz, Oro. It is doing busi ness as a common carrier, but more particularly in developing the timber holdings of Cobbs,nnd Mitchell. At tho Portland office of the Valley and Siletz Railroad company it was said that the action of the inter-state commerce commission in authorizing tho Issue of $700,000 in capital stock refers to a transfer of non-negotiable promissory notes, covering cost of completing tlte railway; , hold by the trustee for an equivalent in the com pany's capital stock, which recently was increased from $300,000 to $1,000, 000. No extension of the r railway toward tho coasD ds contemplated im mediately, it was said. . . , . ml NaT je 4 - j& 2? tUJ The nineteen-year-old Princesa Xenia, of Greece, and her American hus band, William Leeds, heir to a large part of the Leeds tinplate millions.

Four Irish wom en, political prisoners in Mountjoy prison, this city, escaped last night. One of them, Linda Hears, a nurse, was serving a sentence of ten years. The escape was affected by means of a rope bidder thrown across tho prison wall and the fugitives clam bored down a steep embankment com pleting the most daring jull delivery in the history of Mountjoy. With aircraft for spotting purposes a battleship's gunnery is Improved from thirty to forty per cent. TODAY! Apples in some sections of the coun ty that have anthracnose should be sprayed in the fall with Bordeaux. Tliero may bo a few growers who have not yet applied this spray on adcount of harvesting the appio crop. Unless this application i3 mado soon it will not be effective against anthracnose. Tills spray to be effective should be Willi Bordeaux. Peaches, cherries . and apricots should bo sprayed at this time with Bordeaux mixture for tho California peach blight fungus. This Is a disease that docs a great deal or damage to stono fruits in this county and it can be controlled very readily by spraying applied as early in tho fall as is .pos sible after crop is off. For both stone fruits and apples use 0 pounds of bluestone and G pounds of good lime to 50 gallons of water. Dis solve bluestone in separate barrel and slako lime separately, then add water to each sufficiently to make up enough for the tank. Then add diluted blue stone and lime solutions to the spray tank at tho same time. Do not add bluestone to lime solution or vice versa. Both should go into tank at the same time. Keep up good agitation and spray all parts of the trees. The addition of three ounces of sugar to a two hundred gallon tank will preserve tho keeping quality of tile Bordeaux mixture for a few days in case spray is made up and cannot be applied immediately.
