BITTERNESS OVER . ITALIAN DECISION
(By Associated Press) MILAN, Italy. Sept. 22. Opposition to the agreement reached at Rome between the representatives of employers and workmen in the metal trades has become quite bitter at meetings where the agreement has been discussed. Members of the workers' commission which signed the agreement, explain they simply carried out the decision of the plenary session of workmen, at which the tendency of the socialist party to give the present movement a political character with the view to overthrowing the present regime was defeated by a large majority. They insist that the logical consequence of this decision was the return' of industrial plants to their owners, since occupation was a means to the end, and not the end itself. Clerks employed at the Pirelli works here have formed a non-political association for the purpose of protesting their interests. Plans contemplated would make this association the nucleus for a general federation of clerks throughout the country. American Legion
- One of the most important questions to be discussed before the second annual convention of the American Legion, which opens at Columbus, Man- j day, is that of the legion's participation in politics, Franklin D. D'OHer, national commander, declared today. "The legion constitution states that the organization shall be absolutely non-political" Mr. D'OHer said, "and shall not be used for dissemination of partisan principles or for the promotion of candidacy of any person seeking public office or preferment. V Legion men everywhere believe that this provision is the fundamental principle of the legion's being. At the same time, they do not believe they must at all times be silent on certain matters just because they happen to be political. Where matters come up which involve the principles for which the Legion stands, the Legion will not hesitate to give its opinion in strong terms." Lemuel Bolles, national adjutant, said that the legion must participate in politics, to a certain extent and not take the political clause in its constitution too literally. "This principle should be carried out with judgment" he said. "The legion should not side with any political party or candidate, but it should take a stand on questions vital to the nation's welfare. If we fall to do this, we will be neglecting a public duty."
