SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 18.—-Wlth
W delegates to the filth an-
nual American Legion convention
holding out for the repudiation Of
the Ku Klux Klan and the organi-
sstion here of a unit of the Anti-
Bonus league to fight any resolution
tnvoring compensation for the' ex-
service men, the convention finished
its third day of virtual deadlock here
last night.
May Compromise.
Late y terday a spirit of com-
promise tered the Ku Klux Klan
qeustlon when the California dele-
gates in caucus voted an 'honest
neutrality" in matters pertaining to
politics. religion officials admittd was
threatening the Legion.
Michigan delegates stated that
they would fight to force through
the resolution drawn up by James E.
Hunt. of Mount Pleasant. Mich, in
which the Legion is called is re-
nounce the Klan as "un-American
. principles for which the American
Legion stands."
'the formation of an Anti-Bonus
League dispelled the hope that the
compensation committee wT‘a'lTld tin-
aily work out a resolution in com-
mittee that would be acceptable to
the entire convention. 7
“For the disabled. everything; for
the able-bodies nothing." will he
the demand of the Anti—Bonus fac-
tion. W. C. Van Antwerp Chairman
of the committee stated. He said:
“Plant is the slogan for the ex-
service men's Anti-Bonus League.
which in now organized and actively
functioning in twenty-siv states. We
are opposed to the granting of any
form of bonus to able-bodied ex-
scrvice men on the ground that to
serve a country in time of war is to
privilege as- well as a duty. and to
seek a material reward thereior is
an act repugnant to the spirit of
true patriotism and a violation of
the fundamental principlcsot Amer-
ican citizenship."
