AMERICAN LEGION HOLDS
A TERRITORIAL CONVENTION
(From Juneau Empire )
Capt. John 1*. Walker , of Juneau,
,vas elected fiist commander of the
department of Alaska today at the
Convention of the American Lcpfion
which closes its session late this af
ternoon.
After a spirited contest between
Valdez and Ketchikan, the former
city won out for the honor of having
the next Annual Territorial Conven
tion, and Harold F. Davis of the Ju
I ncau Tost won out in the contest for^
'delegate to the next National Conven
tion. Ketchikan was also a contender
for this honor.
The complete set of officers as
dec ted were: John P. Walker, Ju
neau, Commander Department of Al
aska; II. F. Dawes, Juneau, First
Vice-Commander of the Department
>f Alaska • JA. Talbot, Ketchikan, I
Second Vice-Commander; George E.
C!e .eland, Juneau, Finance Officer;
ieorge E. Mann, Juneau, Adjutant;;
Rev, John II. Hughes, Anchorage, |
Chaplain and Historian.
It was decided that the next Ter- •
ritorial Convention would be held at
Valdez on the second Tuesday in <
April, 1921. The contest between j
'Ceichikan and Valdez was very J
keen. J. A. Rosson, delegate from
Valdez, held the proxies of Fort
Mscum, Seward and Cordova, in ad
lition to those of Valdez. L. M.
Campbell, delegate from Wrangell,
bad the proxies of Ketchikan and
boosted for that city. George A.
Cetchell held the Anchorage and
'some proxies. In the balloting , in
hirh twenty -five votes were cast,
j bildez won out by one vote.
The other close contest was that
j or delegate to the next National con
vnt'on which is to be held at Cleve
' and. Ohio, Sept 30, 1921. In this
laiold F. Dawes won from J. A. Tal
j hot of Ketchikan by a narrow margin.
! Mr. Talbot was however, elected as
| alternate.
It was decided that there would
i be an executive committee for the
) bpartment to be composed of one
member from each post in the Tei
ritory. This committee was to con
sist of the delegate who attended
he present con\cntion. If none at
.ended the committeeman was to
jo elected by the post. In the case
>f Juneau, which had two delegates
n attendance, one of the two will be
chosen.
After some discussion a Constitu
tion and By-Laws, as drafted by the
committee, was adopted by the Con
/ention. These laws will govern
'd! the Alaska posts. Several reso
utions were read and adopted.
The convention was to terminate
its work this afternoon and the visit
ng delegates are to be the guests at
i big public dance tonight.
The banquet of Saturday night
was very well attended as was the
show at the Palace Theatre after
ward. At the banquet many toasts
were answered bv the different mem
bers of the Legion.
