LEGION THINKS PARADES DO NOT FIND MEN WORK Asks Posts Throughout Nation Not to Stage Unemployment Demonstrations. Parades of unemployed men do not constitute a desirable or effective means of solving the unemployment situation and time spent in organizing such demonstrations had better be utilized, in digging up some kind of work for the men to do. This was the sentiment expressed by prominent members and offl ctals of the American Legion, who sat in a conference upon the question with National Commander John G. Emery at national headquarters here lato Friday. The conference received reports upon the number and condition of unemployed ex-service men throughout the country and jotted down a number of preliminary recommendations to be sent to the 11,000 legion posts. Tlie committee is expected to take more definite action, looking toward the laying down of a program before the national convention in Kansas City. Oct. 31, Nov. 1 and WOULD COOPERATE WITH CONFERENCE. A telegram expressing a desire to cooperate with the national unemployment conference was sent by Commander Emery to President Harding. It was estimated upon reports from all sections of the country that there are 903,011) ex service men out of work. Their situation is not going to improve much before spring unless some stimulus is given to business or some undeveloped line of work is opened up. In this con neetion the often proposed suggestion that the Federal, State, county and municipal governments of the country put ex- ervlee men to work on public im p’rov 'incuts and that it be done this win ter and not next spring. The State of Minnesota is doing a wonderful piece of work of this nature, it was reported to t,li<i conference. WOULD BAN CHARITY IN LEGION*. The recommendations drafted tor com municHtlon to the posts are as follows I "No charity Make industry the basis of relief. "Discourage parades of the unemployed Discourage breadlines, soup kitchens etc. ' "Lot each employed legionuaire accept the responsibility of obtaining employment for one ex service man. ”I>*t each post of the legion elect an employment officer. “Put a stop to fake soliciting of cm ployraenf. "Promulgate a spirit of cooperation 1 ctween the posts and the welfare organizations of their districts. ■’Pritig the attention of employers to the fact that the ex soldier is no longer tlie restless, dissatisfied man that he was in the months directly following the close of the war." The telegram to President Harding rend : “I have the honor to report that the American la-gion committee on unemployment has today com 't • the legion to the task of caring f- _ the 909.01*) Jobless ex-service men We desire tn cooperate with your committee and ham placed the responsibility jirectly Upon the 11.000 legion posts of the conn try to that our buddies get employment The soldier wants work, not -charity.

I.—Twenty-five thousand families loaded their furniture on vans today and moved to new quarters. This is a decrease from the number who moved a year ago, in the opinion of .1. It. Patterson, president of the Tenants Protective Teague. “A great many members of our organization determined to stick it out in their apartments, despite rent increases, and attempt to reach a compromise with their landlords" Patterson said.

Postponement of consideration of the Army and Navy appropriation bills until after the conferenee on limitation of armaments and Far Eastern affairs has been decided upon by leaders of the House Appropria lions Committee, it is now learned. While examination of estimated expendi turos for the War and Navy Departments for the fiscal year of 1923 has begun, leaders do not expect to bring in tlie appropriations until next spring instead of in December. They believe the future course of military and naval establishments will he determined by the conference. They will seek to avoid a political controversy on armaments such as might prove embar rassing to those engaging in the deliberations of the international gathering. In event of agreement for limitation of Hrraamcajs, if is expected much new legislation will bi> needed. That will be considered next spring, according to the plans of the leaders. The Republican program of economy will bear directly upon the forthcoming conference. It Is chiefly in expend.tures for the military and naval establishments that leaders of the Appropriations Committee are planning to fulfill promises to reduce expenditures. While no tin usual cuts of Army appropriations are in sight, leaders are set upon reducing naval expenditures by 25 per cent, if possible. Without Important reductions the Republican program of revenue revision will be embarrassed. Reductions are being made tri taxes in anticipation of reduced governmental expenditures.—Copyright. 1921, by Public l*odgcr Company.
