D. J. DOHERTY IS
ELECTED LEGION'S HEAD
NEW YORK. Sept.—Daniel J.
Doherty, 43 years old, a lawyer,
of Woburn, Mass., who served 17
months in United States Navy
during the World War. was unani
mously elected national comman
der of the American Legion at its
recent convention in Now York
City.
Doherty was regarded as a fav
orite during the pre-election cam
paign, but it was expected he
would be given a tough fight by
delegations favoring Raymond
Kelly, corporation counsel of De
troit, Mich. Besides Doherty and
Kelly, those placed in nomina
tion for commander were Milo
Warner oi Toledo, Ohio, and Ste
phen Chadwick, lawyer of Seat
tle.
In the balloting after Virginia
had voted and the next state,
Washington, had been called, Mr.
Chadwick rose and asked that his
state’s vote be cast for Doherty.
Then Kelly and Warner asked
that the votes of their states bej
changed so as to be recorded in
favor of Doherty, and finally all
delegations cast their ballots for
the Massachusetts veteran.
Alaska Yields to Washington
When the roll of delegations
was called in alphabetical order
for the making of nominations,
Alaska, second on the list, yield
ed to Washington, whose delega
tion nominated Chadwick. Alas
ka, Idaho and Hawaii seconded
Chadwick's nomination.
The election earlier in the day
of Mrs. Malcolm Douglas of Seat
tle to be president of the Ameri
can Legion Auxiliary precluded
any hope of Chadwick’s election
as commander of the Legion.
SPEAR POINTS
Radio listeners can condone
Boaky’s British pronunciation of
“tfutyle” and ‘^preeeedent”, but
when broadcasters begin sending
out squadrons of “calvary” some
thing must be done about it.—
The Boston Globe.
Another Americanism is the
cry that there are too many traf
fic deaths, with no estimate of
what would be a good wholesome
number—Richmond Times-Dis
patch.
FOR SALE—Modern beating
stoves—burn either hard or soft
coal—slightly used, inquire at the
Nugget Office for information.
