Dramatic Fight Secures One Cent Mile Fare for Legion Convention
The Kansas City Star reports a hard won victory for a 1 cent per mile railroad rate to the American Legion convention this fall.

The final result grants a 1 cent a mile fare in play coaches and opens Pullman service to veterans, following the death of Commander Galbraith in June.
