RELATIVES OF
VETS ARE GIVEN
REDUCED RATES
ANY relative of An Old Confederate
Veteran Is Entitled to Railroad
Rate of Cent For Convention.

Atlanta, Ca, September Amy rel
alive of a Confederate veteran, even II
the veteran is dead, may secure the
rate of one cent a mile to the Confed-
crate reunion in Atlanta October Nv
It was stated here today by N. B, For"
rest, reunion general secretary.
Eligible for the rate are all Con-
federate veterans and members OF
their families, all members of the
United Daughters of the Confederacy
and all Ladies of the Confederated
Memorial Association. All sponsors
and maids-in fact, anyone who Is
connected with the reunion in any Of
fetal way-can get the cheap rate.
In the case of sons or grandsons OF
Confederate veterans, they must be
members in good standing OF Sons
of Veterans camy in the south, before
the certificate of eligibility bill be
given them. Others may procure the
certificates by communicating with
their camp. departmental or DIVISION
commander, or with Mr.. Forrest, at
\ reunion headquarters, Room 6O2
Chamber of Commerce building, At
lanta.
These certificates must be presented
when tickets are purchased. The wide
range included in those eligible Is
taken to mean that almost anyone In
the south can get the rate, for nearly
everyone in the south is related to a
Confederate veteran or had one among
his ancestors. Those who are not sons
O grandsons of veterans, but are more
distantly connected, are yet eligible
for the rate. /.
Applications for certificates being
received daily at reunion headquarters
indicate that hundreds of special
trains will bring the visitors to At
lanta. AS is always the case for the
reunion, the railroad administration
will make up special trains from al
parts of the country. Texas will send
two specials at least. Oklahoma two
