LEGION WILL SAID SEPT. 8TH

69 Members of American Auxiliary Will Visit France

Sixty-nine members of the American Legion and the Legion Auxiliary from the various posts throughout the State are scheduled to attend the Paris convention of the American Legion, which will convene on September 19.

Deputy Attorney General Leonard G. Hagner will be the first local Legionnaire to sail for the Paris convention. Lester P. Hudson, Department France Convention officer, has announced. Mr. Hagner, a member of Laurence Roberts Post No. 21, of Wilmington, will sail from New York on the steamship President Harding, August 10, which will give him an opportunity to tour Europe prior to the opening of the convention.

With the exception of Mr. Hagner and a few who will sail on the steamship President Roosevelt, August 27, the Delaware delegation will sail on the steamship DeGrasse, of the French Line, leaving New York September 8. Many of the Delaware veterans will be accompanied by their wives, and practically everyone has made arrangements to visit various countries of Europe after the convention.
