effort to prevent embsrrssmeat to

attention to the clause ia the
Vehicle Code prohibiting tbs
stopping of motor cars for tbe

It bas loog beeo the custom of
fire companies, churches snd
lodges to increase tbe receipts of
their benefits by stationing members iu tbe streets and highways
to solicit cootributioos or ssll
tickits.
With highways taxed to their
capacity     with    vehicles,     this
practice hss  caused mooh   con*
lusion and congestion,   with   the
consequent addition to the hazard
ot motoring.   The Legislature at
its lsst session took cognizance oi
tbis condition  and   in   Section
1080 of tbs Vehicle Code   phobi-
bited persons lrom Branding on a

Among tbe matters discussed
were rumors affecting the candidacy  ot H.  C. Emriek for tbe

was ssid that a story is afloat that
Mr. Emrick,wbo spent six montbs
in  a  German  prison camp and
came home with an infected leg
wound  that compelled  him to
spend msny months in a hospital,
is receiving abundant compensation from the government. Members ot the Legion were emphatic
io their denial of tbe rumors, as
several  of  the other   members
know   by tbeir own experience
root governmeot  aid,   wbile a
great help, is far from beiog adequate for tbe sopport of a family.
