White of Marietta, Ohio, today taeuet
a format statement In which he de
ciared ho had "no intention of retir
ing from the chairmanship at this
time,” unless? all elements In the party
can agree upon some one to succeed
me.”
Among committeemen present, the
problem of all elements coming to a
common mind on a new leader la de-
clared to be remote. Chairman Whtte,
It was said, intends to make a de-
termined Tight to defeat any effort
to unseat him, if such should develop.
It is the general concensus of opin-
ion, however, that no such fight will
develop, it was explained.
Senator Pat Harrison of Mississip-
pi, holding the proxy of Miss Henry-
etta Mitchell, committee woman from
Tennessee, came In with Chairman
White and he with E. H. Moore of
Youngstown, Governor Cox's mana-
ger before the San Francisco conven-
tion which nominated hlnyfor presi-
dent. who is expected to Ufrive later
todly, will compose Chairman White's
general staff in caseVit is necessary
for the chairman to make a fight to
retain his position.
Senator Carter Glass of Virginia and
Thomas B. Love of Texas, recognised
among the leaders of tbs White op-
position, have arrived and are con-
ferring with various committeemen
as they arrive.
8enator Harrison, discussing the
possibilities or a fight on Chairman
White, said “this is no time for the
Democratic party to dhrtdt." He an-
ticipated that opposition to Chairman
White will not develop seriously.

He made a plea against esrtional-
ism, which, he said, had baea largely
wiped out by the toeing forces of war
and predicted a great future in the na-
tion's life for the American Legion.
“The opportunity to make this na-
tion one, the sacrifice which made
this nation one, was of your day
alone,” he said.
'-‘‘All the streams of that great spirit
are gathered up in you. Tou repre-
sent a new national consciousness.
Tou represent the consummation of
those great forces, coming into action
in the early days of this century,
which not only made America more
American, but made humanity more
humane. The hope of this nation
which more than ever before corre-
sponds to the hope of the world, lies
in your power to minister to that
spirit, to preserve that consciousness
and to increase those forces.

one aim had been to carry througn
the great program which Comraand*-
Galbralth had left unfinished
A notable public service of ibe past
year, Commander Emory pointed out,
was the “frustration ef a nation-wide
German propaganda campaign in the
United States.” This, he said, was to
start with a series of "Rhine Hor-
ror" meetings.
"The notorious propagandist. Von
Mach, believed he had so cleverly con-
cealed hta motives that he asked Gal-
braith to speak at tho first Rhine
Horror meeting at Madison Square
Garden," Commander Emery said. "A*
you wlH remember, Galbraith <U4 no:
wait that tong before he spoke. He
tcld Von Mach on tha spot wbst he
thought of him and hta project. The
Legion prepared immediately to or-
ganize counter demonstrations wher-
ever the pro-Germanf might carry out
thefr pro-conceivod program. Most of
these mmings were never held, how-
ever, for Von Mach abandoned his
scheme after one disastrous attempt
at Madison Square Garden.”
The greatest Legion achievement of
the year, Commander Emery said, was
won tor the disabled service men, its
vigorous efforts resulting to creation
of the veterans’ bureau.
