OUR WASHINGTON LETTER

Washington, Sept. 2i---"Tha Demo
Gratis have made q shameful record Of
carelessness in the enactment Of spec
ial pension bills, and viii have a lot
to answer for"
This vigorous protest was uttered
by a Grand Army veteran who re-
Gently arrived early in Washington 10
attend the annual eneampment next
week.
"A number Of my comrades for
whom special pension bills had been
passed died in want" said the old
soldier. ''They did not receive their
special pension because the Democrats
had made errors in the wording of
the special laws, and death came be-
fore the errors were corrected"
Examination of the special pension
Legislation by the Democrats furnishes
a scathing indictment of shocking in
efficiency
Scarcely an omnibus pension bill
has been passed since the Democrats
came into power that is not honey
combed with mistakes which blocked
the payment of pensions to old sol
diers.
These mistakes could have been
avoided by the exercise of the simplest
degree of ordinary care. In some in
stances when the bills were drafted
the name of the soldier was mis-
spelled or the wrong initials were Civ
en-. In others the name was correct
but an error was made in describing
the company in which he served; and
in others cases name and company
were 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 legal
ly to put the name Of the soldier on
the pension rolls.
When the pension officials discover
ed these errors they were reported ia
the Invalid Pensions Committee Of the
House and Senate. Attempts were
then made to correct the faulty laws
by the passage of joint resolutions in
which the mistakes were described and
rectifed. But their passage was de-
layed for weeks and months, and even
then some of the corrections were in
accurate.
Meanwhile death was thinning the
ranks of the old soldiers at a rate
estimated above forty thousand a
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 declared 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 if ever occurred.

Kind Words from the
MotionPicture News

This well-known trade paper, in
the issue of October 23d, re-
produces the Photoplay Page
of the EVENING LEDGER as
an example of what other news
papers ought to do for motion
picture theatres.
The following extracts will in
terest the producer, the exhibit
tor and theatre patrons:
90 AS an example of
Just how complete a newspaper
photoplay department can be
made, take the case of the Phila-
delphia EVENING LEDGER,
which gives at least a column a
day, and on Saturday a whole
page, to picture news and ad-
vertising.
Mote. first, the classified adver-
tising under Prominent Photo

nouncements are grouped under
headings indicating in what sec
tions of the city the various
theatres are located. The read
er knows at once where to go.
All he has to do is to select the
pictures he wishes to see, and
the theatre nearest his home.
The ads are we'll arranged, con-
sidering the large number, and

picture lover. /"
observe also the benefit to ex-
hibitors of other features of this
department. The Photoplay
Editor writes notes of his own
about showings at Philadelphia

tors) He uses also a
gossipy imaginary interview
with Miriam Cooper, and an IL
lustrated story featuring Doug

of the many queries propounded
by the devoted fans >"
THE final strong point of the

picture page is that readers do
not have the slightest difficulty
in discovering the section of
the paper given to pictures"
at would be hard to find a
photoplay tment of
greater excellence and wider
