This Is the announcement made by Morgan Keaton, adjutant of tiie California department, who has written posts in the principal cities of the country explaining tiie stand of the officials. The post went on record ns unfavorable to pnssage of the adjusted compensation measure, and Department Commander James F. Collins promptly suspended tiie post and called for surrenuer of its charter until the department had time to act. The executive committee sanctioned this act of the commander. Post officials have since announced that they will take their fight for reinstatement to tiie national organization, but the matter must first be considered by tiie department convention. Keatons letter to other posts of the organization, says: This suspension should not be confused as any attempt on the part of the State department to repress or coerce Daylight post, or is the quesintion or adjusted compensation volved ; nor Is the question of free speech involved; but is simply to be clearly understood to mean that Daylight post or any other post must agree to conform with the legally adopted policies of the American LeA man gion or withdraw therefrom. or post cannot serve two masters or support two opposite causes. If Daylight post wishes to oppose adjusted compensatloft it has that right, and Its method in doing so Is to withdraw nnd Join those who are opposed to It. because the Legion favors the adjusted compensation ns a result of deliberations in five national conventions, and there every unit belonging to the Legion must of necessity adopt the same policy. 1 Veterans Are Urged to Beware of Sharpers The American Legion is warning all veterans against paying any fees to attorneys who offer to secure a certificate issued In lieu of lost discharge.

Mr. Miller advises all veterans to either apply direct to tiie adjutant general of the army or to write the service bureau of the American Legion, 417 Bond building, Washington, who will handle the case without charge.
