BY LOUIS LUDLOW.

WASHINGTON. Aug. "a radi-
cal change III the method Of pay
ing pensioners in Indiana and 9TH
er states is contained in a bill which
has just been reported favorably
out OF the house committee on in
valid pensions.
The bill proposes that all persons
drawing pensions from the govern
ment shall be paid monthly Per
sons whose pensions are based on
military and naval service in the
war OF 1912. the war with Mexico.
the Civil war. the war with Spain
and the Indian wars have always
been paid quarterly Under the pro-
posed legislation they would get
pay every month.
In recommending the reform in
paying pensioners the committee on
invalid pensions has submitted an
interesting report 10 the house in
which il says:
There are at present 624.427 pen
siOners Of which number more than
S03,111 are widows. over 100000
are soldiers who rendered service in
the Civil war and more than 29O. =
600 are the widows OF soldiers Of
that war
In providing for compensation
for soldiers and sailors of the war
with Germany and the widows and
dependents OF such, congress acted
wisely in making a law requiring the
payments to he made monthly and
they are so made
Business short Term.
Salaries and wages are universal
~ paid weekly. bi-monthly or
monthly and retail business gem
orally is educated on cash basis or
on short-term credit. so days at the
longest.
The men and boys who entered
the army or navy in defense Of the
government and democracy were
mostly persons who earned their
livelihood with their hands or brains
and who had up to the beginning of
their service received their wages
weekly bi-monthly or monthly. In
considering these facts congress
doubtless reasoned that it was con
sidered good policy 10 pay salaries
ard wages at short intervals TO peo-
pc in good health 20 enable them
20 use their income TO the best ad-
vantage il would be equally as good
policy and more necessary 10 pay
the compensation TO disabled men
and widowed women and minor or
phan children at the very shortest
practicable intervals and fixed upon
the monthly payment as the proper
period.
Live On Long Credit.
There are now approximately
500. 600 soldiers and widow pension
ers of the civil war alone and the
great majority OF them depend
largely on their pensions for support.
Many perhaps most of these have

apparent reason why congress should
not be asked 10 authorize monthly

"A refusal by congress TO author

favor OF a comparatively youthful
list OF benefciaries receiving com

very aged beneficiaries receiving

PENSACOLA IS
BOOSTED AS A
SUMMER RESORT

-
The railroad administration is dis
tributing folders advertising summer
resorts in the south, and Pensacola is
given a prominent place. S. H. Burke,
district passenger agent for the L. &
N railroad, has number of these
folders on hand.
The pamphlet has this to say about
Pensacola:
Pensacola lies in the extreme ives
tern portion of Florida on the west
shore of Pensacola Bay, and about
seven miles from the Gulf of Mexico.
LAS a resort Pensacola offers much
of interest from a sightseeing and CHI
matte standpoint. The Pensacola navy
yard, established in 1882, is one of the
famous sights of the south, and is now
used by the u. S government as a
naval aeronautical school. Near by is
Fort Barrancas, with its marine hospi-
tai. the lighthouse and ruins of Forts
McRae and San Carlos. Across the
sound, on the extreme western end Of
Santa Rosa Island, stands Fort Pick
ems. guarding the entrance to Pensacola
bay from the gulf. There are good
roads for automobiles, horseback riding
and driving.
Deep water fishing is to be had in
the gulf of Mexico, which is about seven
miles south of Pensacola. Surf bath
ing in the Gulf is especially enjoyable
during the summer season.
The Country Club golf links and ten
mis- courts, near the bay shore, are

officials of the Stock Yards Labor
Council tOiled and fought to hold
in check the forces of organized la
bor-to show them that the situa-
ton was the result of exploitation
of white and back workers alike by
the criminals of big business and tC
prevent workers from assaultine

ut stands to the credit of the
union workers of Chicago that nei-
Their black nor white union men
participated in the rioting, despite
the lying accounts published daily
by the kept press, bought body and
soul by the advertisements of the
packers and other crooks of big bust
ness.
THE white union men of the city
did not fall for the game of the
packers. The colored union men
also refused to be misled into VIC
lence, and cast their influence on
the side of those of their race that
actively participated in the disor-
der.
1.-The rioting subsidized and then
some one fired the homes of hun
dreds of white workers back of the
yards and these homes were burned
to the ground. The newspapers and
police, jointly tools of the packers,
tried to convince the citizens that
colored workers had set fire to these
homes.
"Why?
1T is perfectly obvious that the
criminals that played race against
race until blood flowed in the
streets of our city, had carried their
work further and made this last
effort to inflame the Polish and
Lithuanian white stock yards work.
ers against the colored workers"
To support their charges, these
organized workers say that while
public officials and the packers
were talking for five days during
the riots about this problem, the
men who knew the most about the
problem were not consulted. The
acknowledged leader of honest and
Intelligent negroes was ignored, as
was Judge Altschuler, who has con-
ferred with the stock yards workers
for many months in his capacity as
arbitrator. No officer of union la
Dor, either white or black, was
asked for advice.
