Editor National Tribune: In the arti-
Gle written by Comrade James c. East
man, entitled Service Pension Substi-
tute" he asks for an expression OF
opinion on this subject from the other
comrades. Replying personally to Com
rade Eastman, would say that 1t would
all be very fine for those comrades able
to stand the fatigue of travelling and
the expense of living while at the En-
campment. But for the poor. disa bled
pain-racked soldier who has not known
one year of perfect health since his
transportation" to the National En-

other hand, to such person service
pension in dollars and cents wherewith
to buy medicine and bread to keep off
pain and hunger would indeed be a
Godsend. Every year such are looking
forward to the passage of bill which
Will add trifie more to their meager

the whole thing but he knows only one
side of the question Wherever the
National Encampment is held 1t is to
make money, and money they will have.
For instance, the poor soldier is charged

pear. tasteless. leathery and juiceless,
and 35 cents for small sandwich.

heard only the glittering side of the
story. The comrades are not going to
tell their friends how they had to sleep

to attend National Encampment is to
take along well-flled purse or the
danger is some one will be hungry.
