LEGION TRYING
TO MITIGATE
WAR’S SADNESS
NEW) YORK, Sept. 6 (by Associated
Press).—The American Legion is
making an effort to mitigate a dis
tressing phase of the aftermath of
war, the 2,000 personal mysteries of
the great struggle, of men who are
classified in the army and navy lists
as “missing in action,” killed in bat
tle” and “presumably dead.” The
work has been rewarded with some
success, it is announced. In several
instances the Legion Weekly has ob
tained for a mother more clearer de
tails of how her service son died, or
put a wife in touch with the comrades
of her husband, “missing in action.”
Requests of relatives and friends of
soldiers, sailors, marines, and military
nurses about whose fate little is
known, are being sent to newspapers
throughout the country for publica
tion. Results of this publicity are
carefully tabulated at offices here.
All “buddies,” officers, doctors,
nurses or welfare workers, who may
know something of the person of
whom information is asked, are invit
ed to communicate with the friends or
relatives. Each week a long list of
“mysteries” are published in the
legion’s organ, but who failed to reach
home, is sent to the newspapers.
The current result list of the legion
contains the following instances
where desired information was furn
ished :
Mrs. uatnerine Hoibect, of Allen
town, Pa., asked for information con
cerning the circumstances surround
ing the death of her son, Sergeant
Joseph Holbeck of Company C, 109th
Machine Gun Battlion, 28th division,
who died in a French hospital. The
mother received a letter from Dr.
Joseph Lintz, of New York, who at
tended the dying soldier, giving de
tails of his last hours.
Mrs. Lola Mason, of McRae, Ga.,
for information that would throw
some light on the disappearance of
her son, F. Mason, Jr., corporal, 83rd
Company, Sixth Marines. The soldier
wrote his mother that he would be
home for Christmas, 1918, but did not
appear and nothing further was heard
of him. Mrs. Mason reported that
she received two letters, one from the
son himself saying that he had recov
ered from a long illness.
Many curious and touching appeals
are received. A mother wants to
know if her son, who died in a field
hospital “said anything on his death
bed.” Another parent whose son was
gassed, captured and afterward died,
desires information from his comrades
as to what kind of gas was used and
how it effects men. Information is
sought of an army nurse who was
last heard from enroute to France
two years ago. A distressed family
seeks word from the “buddies” of
its soldiers who was last seen walk
ing a battlefield wounded.
WANTS CUSTOMS BASED
ON EXCHANGE VALUE
SYDNEY, Australia, Sept. 6 (by As
sociated Press).—Protest recently was
made by the French consul-general
to Premier Hughes against the prac
tice of the customs authorities in not
taking into account the exchange val
ue of the French franc in estimating
the value of French goods. Pie point
ed out that this practice handicapped
English exporters to Australia. Mr.
Hughes promised to take the matter
up with the customs department.

GOWN ORDERED SIX
YEARS AGO HAS JUST
REACHED PURCHASER
PASADENA, Cal., Sept. 6 (by Asso
ciated Press).—A French gown, pur
chased in Paris in 1914, before the
war, has just been delivered to Mrs.
Frank F. Shelden, Kansas City, who
was here recently on her honeymoon.
Mrs. Shelden, then Miss Oolmeyer,
said she bought the gown in a Paris
shop and ordered it sent to Berlin,
where she intended visiting. The
gown was forwarded a few days be
fore the "war storm broke.. It reached
Liege and reposed for two years at
the American consulate. Later it
reached Miss Dolmeyer’s Berlin hotel
and was kept there until the war end
ed. Finally, after several trips across
the Atlantic, it reached its owner.
DISCOVER RUINS OF
OLD ARIZONA MISSION
NOGALES, Arizona, Sept. 6 (by As
sociated Press).—Records left by the
early Spanish padres recently led to
the location by Frank Pinkley of the
United States National park service
of the ruins of an old Arizona mis
sion which had never been officially
recorded. The mission is at Calabas
as, nine miles north of here, and, it is
thought, was founded in 1770.
Another old mission, yet unrecord
ed, is in this district, Mr. Pinckley
believes. The second mission, which
bore the name of San Luis Bacancos,
is located, it believed, somew'here near
the Mexican border. Pinckley is to
make an extensive search for the
ruin.
LESS PICTURE BRIDES
COMING TO HAWAII
HONOLULU, Sept. 6 (by Associ
ated Press).—One hundred and sixty
nine fewer “pictrue brides” came to
Hawaii during the fiscal year ending
June 30 than during the previous fis
cal year, according to figures of the
United States immigration office here.
The total for 1919-20 was 848 against
1,01 7for ,1918-19.
Inspector R. L. Halsey has attrib
uted the decrease to a strike on the
sugar plantations here which lasted
six months from Januray T9, and to
the fact that many Japanese who did
not strike made big wages on account
of the high price of sugar. This
enabled them to go to Japan for their
brides instead of sending for them by
the picture system.
