BOUNTY LANDS AND THE OLD SOLDIERS
The soldiers Of the war of 1912, residing in
Philadelphia, have adopted resolutions urging
Congress, as at act ofjustice to so modify the
present bounty land law as to grant one hun
hired and sixty acres of land, in every instance;
and in case OF the death OF the widow, the ben
eff Of the law should extend to the children
generally; anu where an unmarried person was
in the service. and is now dead, his parents,
and in case Of their death, his brothers and
sisters, should be entitled to his land. They
also ask similar bounty for the Dartmoor and
TripOi prisoners and their families and the
same provision for sailors as is granted by the
present law to marines.
