Their arguments prevailed against those of a non-interventionist group who professed to see danger for the United States in any program of co-operation with the Soviets and who favored independent defense of this nation without meddling in wars of the Old World. This group of anti-intervention-ists included Senator Bennett Champ Clark (Mo.) and Hanford MacNider of Iowa, both past Na-r tional Commanders of the Legion.

Stambaugh Defines Stand

Lynn U. Stambaugh, Fargo, N. D., defined the Legion's stand in a speech following his election as new National Commander and said he would consider it his marching nrders. “...

Ray E. Smith, secretary to the Governor, was to present lists of Democratic Stdte employees to the county chairmen today, drawn up from questionnaires distributed recently by the Governor’s office. The county leaders will be asked to recommend any changes they desire, and their proposals will be used in an effort to provide an “equitable, distribution of available Jobs.” This probably will be taken up by the State Committee at its session tomorrow, but State Chairman Fred F.
