.- Convention in Relying on
I Congress
PLANNING ENTERTAINMENT
That the American l,c;ion nt Its ecu
Tontfnn In Mlnneannlls adopted u wKo
policy In rorcrrliiR tnc
bouiii question to Con
crrss for whatever nc
tlon wai ileemeil proper
is the opinion exprevf-ed
in the official i"''l"i
lion of the world war
veterans, the American
T,ealon Weekly, in the issue leceiveil
here today.
"Realizing as the majoiit.v did
realliie." declares the weekly, "that n
rJny adjustment of the long niojitlis of
Service should he made in the interests
of. equity and fairness, these rvprcv.cn-
tatlvcs of al the men and women who
were, in service refused to fix the de
tails or demand any set sum by way
of what has been termed a bonus. The
question was passed to Congress for de
termination. "What other class, havlnj; In Its
power In demand a particular act be
littluc Its Individual members, would
have had the unselfishness to 'take such
action? It did rot mean thut they do
not wont ii pay readjustment. It Mid
not mean that there was not u full
realization of the Justice and equity
embodied in a claim for such an ad
justment. It means that they would
not s'l the price upon tholr sen ices
and demand a specific sum, but would
pa's that responsibility to Coiicrcss ;
and. while the thought was not ey
nremeil. It is manifest that they will
'ook lo Congress and to the country
for fair and honest dealing in the ad
justment." '

Nearly every piano is selected for
one of two reasons either to en
able the purchaser to get more
satisfaction from personal use of
the instrument; or, to have the
pleasure of hearing' others play. The Steinway is
the only piano that can give the completest measure
of both personal improvement in playing and enjoy
ment of others at the keyboard. The richness of
Steinway tone; its wonderful approximatisn to the
singing voice; its delightful touch, and sensitive
mechanism are unapproached in any other piano.
Edison Diamond-Disc Phonographs charm every hearer;
meet .every musical ta&te with their thousands of beautiful
records; delight the eye with their handsome cabinets.
