Faith, Hope and Parity Rear Admiral Hugh Rodman, a native Kentuckian, also brought to the convention a plea of parity in naval strength. His text, he said, was Faith, hope and parity, and the greatest of these la parity. The Unuited States needs at all times, his address said, an adequate navy during peace and In time cf war equal in strength and in other particulars, and on a parity with that of any other Nation on earth. There is little or no use in having an Inferior navy; one not quite strong enough. The Germans spent hundreds of millions of dollars in creating fleet about 80 percent as strong as that of Great Britain.

When It came to a showdown during the World War it did not give Germany even 80 percent protection. It gave little or practically none. Hence she reverted to submarine warfare. The Admiral said that one might as well expect a lame mule to win the Kentucky Dery as a country with a second best navy to win a war. Report Approved The report of the national commander was approved by the conveen-tion.

K. M. Landis, baseball commissioner, then was introduced and the Legionnaires gave him a rousing salute.

Tomorrow morning the annual parade of the Legion will be held, with approximately 50,000 persons participating.

Hth annual convention of the National American Legion was called to order at the Jefferson County Armory here this morning by Commander Paul V. McNutt of Indiana. Approximately 50,000 Legionnaires, members of their families and visitors, were assembled in Louisville as the convention opened and additional thousands continued to pour into the city during the day.

After a right of unrestrained merrymaking, today opened gloomy and chilly, and the delegates were somewhat tardy in arriving at the convention hall. The armory presented a beautiful picture. A reproduction of an old-fashioned colonial mansion front porch, gigantic columns at the edge of a road veranda, was the speakers stand. Immediately in front of the 60-foot porch were pits for the 1928 prize band from the Hopkins Post of Wichita, Kan, and the prize-winning drum and bugle corps from Miami, Fla. legionsIdelights THOMAS O.

Capt F. G.

Brown, ln charge of the Cunard steamer, has entered into the spirit of the occasion and the ship is ln every sense a Yankee Division transport, carrying delegates of American good will.

Sherburne, who Is the chalrmanof the Overseas Memorial Committee and president of the Y-D Veterans Association, was master of ceremonies at the Informal assembly of the veterans and their guests on the deck of the steamer this afternoon. Gen Sherburne discussed the plans for the dedication and oalled upon MaJ Gen Clarence R.

Edwards, still the popular "Daddy of the division, and Col William J. Keville, Col Carroll J. Swan and Col Slater Washburn for remarks. Not an unpleasant feature of the that the steamer is beyond the famous 12-mlle limit, is the opportunity to drink draught ale. So popular was the pastime that William J.

Brown, one of the veterans, hit upon an Idea to aid in raising funds for the completion of the Memorial Church at Belleau. For one sip of ale from the glass of "Daddy Edwards the fee of $1 Was charged, and there were enough good sports ready to pay the extra price ln order to drink from the Generals glass and aid the worthy cause.

Minister of the Interior Andre Tar-dieu, French High Commissioner in Washington during the war, welcomed the delegation, which was headed by Gen William P.

Jackson, ln behalf of the French Government.

an agreement for real naval parity is reached, Americas cruiser building program should be continued, said- Paul V. McNutt, national commander of the American Legion, in his report made publio at the opening session of the organizations national convention today. Asserting that the Legion stands for movements to make permanent peace mors certain. Commander McNutt added that until such methods are found and accepted by all Natlona this Nation must provide a complete defense In any contingency. Under present conditions, he continued, the policy of parity with other Powers Is essential to complete defense.

Such parity must he real verity rather than apparent parity. If it la possible to achieve auch parity by agreement rather than by competitive armament the policy of the American Legion is to support such a move. Until such an agreement is reached the cruiser building program should be continued. The American Legion, the commander said in another part of bis report, must confine itself to those matters which affect veterans of the World War and their dependents and to broad nonpartisan questions of national policy. Ha said the Legion had been asked to further many causes which, although worthy, did not concern the veterans as such, Directly.

He added that the Legion should present a united front and that once a decision is made by a properly authorized body it is the duty of every Legionnaire to support that decision. Hospitals Inadequate Discussing the failure of the-National Hospital bill, the report pointed out that more than 52,000 World War veterans are receiving compensation for neuropsychiatrio disability. We are told by experts," it added, that the peak of the neuropsychiatrio load will not be reached until 1947. The month-old report of the acting medical director of the Veterans Bureau contains the inforamtion that ex-service men are hospitalized for mental sickness, and that of these 7217 have been hospitalized without authorization of the bureau in State, county, city and private institutions. "Our survey shows, on Aug 1, that 2243 neuropsychiatrio veterans, aside from those in non-Governmental institutions, are awaiting hospitalization today.

The conclusion Is obvious. The hospital facilities, of the Government are now adequate. I believe it to be the duty of this convention to take a determined stand on these matters and prepare to carry the fight for adequate hospitalization to a suocessful conclusion. No one is a more sincere believer in peace than the man who has known, personally, the horrors of war, declared Gen Peyton C. March, formerly chief of staff of the army, in an address prepared for delivery at the opening session.

We all rejoice In the signing of the Kellogg treaties renouncing war as an instrument of national policy, bout it would be foolish to Imagine that wars were abolished by those treaties. False Sense of Security The address character as particularly unfortunate the propaganda now prevalent that war has been made Impossible by modern inventions, and added nothing could be further from the fact. And nothing could be more dangerous than for the Nation to be lulled into a false sense of security by such talk as this. Ws need, and always will need, an army and a navy of suitable strength for national defense. Another speaker on todays program was Mrs Boyce Ficklen Jr, national president of the American Legion Auxiliary, who brought greetings from the 330,000 members of her organization.

Her prepared said the auxiliary had been denounced as a militaristic organization because of its firm stand for the maintenance of the country's defense. Nothing could be more absurd than this charge, It was added. We have seen our men march away to the most terrible war In history and we have a clearer understanding of what war means than any other group of women ln America. We will not let our love of peace blind us to the fact that the jrm 3 Ys T. if- r- i 4- tjX: yi 5 at Norwood, Walpole and Readvllle eg the old Boston, Hartford Erls for time before going to work at the tan, nery.

OUTBOARD COURSE A HALF-MILE SHORT Stback for Those Who Made Records in Meet MIDDLETOWN, Conn, Sept 30 (A Outboard motor racers, who set new records at the New England and Middle Atlantic States races here Sept 20 and 21, received a setback today, when officials of the Public Works Department of this city surveyed the supposed 2-mile course and found it to be short exactly one-half mile. Many of the races were over the course twice, making a five-mile race, and these were one mile short of the right distance. After complaint of Commodore T. Macdonough Russell ot the Middletown Yacht Club that the course was evidently shorier than the announced mileage, officials measured the distance and found it to be two miles long instead of 2 4 to the lap. Blama was accepted by the Public Works Department for an error in measuring the distance before the races were held.

Just what action will be taken by the Outboard Motor Boat Association Is not known. Several of the races in the meet established new records for various distance, which is believed to have been accepted as true over hte course which was understood to be 2H miles. Races that wers officially recorded as 2T4 miles were actually two miles, while the two-lap affairs of five miles actually were only four miles.
