SHAMEFUL RECORD
ON PENSION ACTS
Democrats Smother Special
Claims UutiI Soldiers
Die.

washington, Sept. 23.-The Demo-
Gratis have made a shameful record
of carelessness in the enactment Of
special pension bills, and will have q
lot to answer for
This vigorous protest was uttered
by Grand Army veteran who re-
Gently arrived in Washington to at
tend the annual encampment next
week.
"A number of my comrades for
whom special pension bills had been
passed died in want" said this old
soldier. They did not receive their
special pension because the Demo
Gratis had made errors in the wording
of the special laws, and death came
before the errors were corrected"
Examination of the special PEN
sion legislation by the Democrats
furnishes a scathing indictment of
shocking inefficiency.
Scarcely an omnibus pension bill
has been passed since the Demo
Gratis came into power that is not
honeycombed with mistakes which
blocked the payment of pensions to
old soldiers. III
These mistakes could have been
avoided by the exercises of the SIM
plest degree of ordinary care. In
some instances when the bills were
drafted the name of the soldier was
misspelled or the wrong initials were
given. In others the name was cor
rect but an error was made in de-
scribing the company in which he
served; and in other cases name and
companyswere right, but the regiment
of the soldier was wrong.
Either error was fatal to the pay
ment of the pension Congress had
awarded, because the bill did not ex-
actly correspond with the official rec
ords of the pension Office. The Com
missioner was therefore unable le-
gally to put the name of the soldier
on the pension rolls.
When the pension officials discov-
cred these errors they were reported
to the Invalid Pensions Committees
of the House and Senate. Attempts
were then made to correct the faulty
laws by the passage of joint resolu-
tions in which the mistakes were
described and rectified. But their
passage was delayed for weeks and
months. and even then some of the
corrections were Inaccurate
Meanwhile death was thinning the
ranks of the old soldiers at a rate
estimated above forty thousand .
year, with the result that a large
percentage of the veterans in whose
behalf the laws were enacted died
without receiving the recognition
which their government had declar-
ed was due them.
In striking contrast to this Demo-
cratic record, the history of special
pension legislation under Republican
rule shows that errors of this sort
rarely ever occurred.
