such n poor showing that he was

Welsh made a good start, but curl

FIRST SERVICE PENSION LAW
Was Instituted to Help Those Who
Had Fought With Washington In
the Revolution.

The FIRST service pension law for sol.
diers of the Revolution was passed In
1878 Prior to that pensions had only
been granted to wounded or disabled
soldiers. The act of 1918 granted life
pensions to all who had served through
the war or for period of nine months.
Fragrant abuses under this law aroused
public indignation and In 1920 law
was passed which caused thousands
of names to be removed from the PEN
sion rolls. President Adams, In his
annual message of 1925, said: "The
act of March IS, 1918, while II made
provision for many mer!torlous and
INDECENT citizens who had served In
the War of Independence, opened n
door to numerous abuses and lmposl-
tlons. To remedy this the act of May
!, $50, exacted proofs OF absolute In
digence, which many really In want
were unable to give, and all suscepti-
bic of that dcllcacy which is allied TO
many virtues must be deeply reluct-
ant to give. The result has been that
some among the least deserving have
been retained and some In whom the
requisites both of worth and want were
combined have been stricken from
the list" AS to the abuses which
sprang up under the service pension
law of 1918, an authority says: "More
claimants applied than could possibly
have survived from Washlngton's
army. The amount required to be paid
the first year was eleven times what
Lad been estimated, and the second
year seventeen times the estimate"
The figures show an extraordinary In
crease of pensions under the act OF
1918, Thus in the year 1900 the total
pension list was SGi1 130; in 1910 1t WIS
SS3,74i; in 1917 1t was S20T,37i; In
1919 It was S2,4i5,039; In 1920 1t leaped
to $3,20S,376. This was small COM
pared to the present pension list, but
It indicated abuses, and congress took
measures TO reform them.

BALL PLAYERS NOT EXEMPT
They Would Nc. Sc Drafted Was
Without Authority,

Denial from Washington of the re.
port that the members of the National
and American leagues were TO be cx.
empt from the draft until next fall has
caused lot of anxiety in the ranks of
the players, The men OF the Ameri.
can league had been assured by Ban
Johnson, their president. that they
would not have to fear draft until fall,
but that assurance was given without
authority. The war department has
given no one authority to announce
any such policy and the players will
be subject to the same regulations as
other men of fighting age.
1t would mean many changes in the
big league races If some of the star
men are grabbed. The drafting Of
