The best news that has come out
of the blue-sky living costs turmoil
for long time is the announcement
that the great meat-packing con-
Germs have agreed to conffne them
selves 10 the meat business hereafter.
In consideration of this, the govern
ment has discontinued the proceed
ings Instituted against the packers
last summer, but wisely has had is
sued an injunction decree to make
the packers stick to their bargain.
The packers agree to sell all their
holdings in stock yards, terminals
and cold storage warehouses, and
their interest in market newspapers,
and to forever dissociate themselves
from the retail meat business.

One of the worst railroad accidents

ly Saturday morning near Onawa, on
the Canadian Pacific railroad, when a
freight met passenger train in head

special carrying immigrants of the
better class. lately landed at Halifax,
mostly from England and Scotland,
bound for new homes in western

been identified. The accident is at
tributed to a mistake or neglect of

freight. which had waited on a siding
until two sections of the special had

WAR RISK INSURANCE.
Congressman Peters Gives Timely
Warning to Service Men.

Congressman Peters writes to The
American as follows:
Ihave just received the following
statement from the director of the
Bureau of War Risk Insurance:
1t is important for service men to
know that under the law, in order to
be eligible for compensation for dis
ability which may occur in the future
as the result of disease or injury in
CURED in active service in the line of
duty, they must, within a year from
leaving the service, obtain from the
Bureau of War Risk Insurance a GER
tihcate stating that at the time of dis
charge or resignation from the service
they were suffering from physical
troubles, likely to result in death or
disability. This certificate registers
the fact that they were sick or injured.
even though they may seemingly have
recovered their health. If. in the flu
ture, disability develops, or death oc-
ours, the certificate will be necessary
to support a claim for compensation.
Request for the certificate by those
entitled to it, should be made to the
Chief Medical Advisor. Bureau of War
Risk Insurance, Washington. d. c.,
without delay. Otherwise the request
may come too late.
wish you would publish this in the
next issue of your valuable paper for
the benefit of the service men in your
. locality.
