Took Ride on Torpedo.

Probably the only man who ever
rode a naval torpedo under way is
Nelson 81. Blount, a Yale graduate,
now at the Newport torpedo station.
Some time ago, when Mr.. Blount was
experimenting at New London, he
wanted to go with the torpedo, so he
rigged a saddle and two small pom
toons on the sides. and taking his
seat, had the missile fired from the
surface and started on his daring ride.
When the torpedo spent itself the in
yentor was still on top.

Jane. who has worked in one partfc-

the day it was opened, is the best
waitress that ever set down dish

the discriminating. Her deftness, her

It isn't. He was little ashamed 70

TO HAVE HEARING ON PROPOSED
INCREASED RATE ON PuLlMANS

On Monday. May 10. the State Pub
lie Utilities commission will hold a
meeting for the purpose of hearing
from the Pullman company regarding
the proposed increase in Pullman car
rates
The Pullman company is expected
to submit testimony in support of its
operating Pullman cars justifies an
advance in fares. The matter has
been set for public hearing in order
that the public as represented by
municipalities. commercial organiza-
tions, individuals or otherwise. may
have an opportunity to be heard at
the same time.
The Interstate commerce commits
sion at Washington recently permit
ted the Pullman company to file
tariffs effective May l. increasing
its sleeping car fares approx
imately twenty per cent. and increas-
ing to SO cents all seat fares that
are now As cents or less. The COM
pany Is asking all state commissions
to permit similar advances in inter
state fares. 1t calls attention to the
fact that. while substantial increases
in railroad. freight and passenger
rates were made during the period
of government control, no advances
were made in Pullman fares despite
marked increases in the cost Of furn-
ishtng sleeping car service.

mr.. w. w. Lamken, in charge of
the Division of Federal Board for Vo-
cational Education, testifying on May
4th before the House Committee on
Education, stated that less than five
percent of these men are being cared
for by the Board and from July 1919
to March 1920 only $15,OOO,OOO in
stead of three fourth of 1926, 100000
had been spent in the work.
while therefore there are 1900

five percent of whom are cared for by

for them, but instead in an e:ort to
win the soldierfyote for the fall cleo
ton is busying itself with a bill for
healthy ex-service men which will tax
the American people two billion dol
lars.
s.Mhether a man favors the bonus
bill or not, no man wants to see 1t
passed. before our. disabled comrades
and the families of our dead are prop
erly cared for by Congress, Among
the ex-service men there is wide
divergence of opinion on the bonus
bill. There can be none, however, on
the necessity of having such a bill
postponed until an adequate disabled
soldier relief bill is passed. And so
| am asking you to try to get this
view to your Senators and Congress
men, Time is pressing. The bonus
bill may be passed any day. beg Of
you to have your, organization pass a
resolution requesting of Congress that
action on the bonus bill now pending
be deferred until the nation does its
duty financially by the GAL 900 who
were our comrades in the Great War,
who are now disabled and who it is
our duty to care for, no matter what
the cost. Telegraph, if possible. and

gresham value to telegraph. The

One car of cement Since April the
first is the record of receipts for Mr..
Henry Terry, who has the contract
for paving the business district of

Mr.. Terry states that the company

with cement for his contract has its
plant tied up by strike, but labor
conditions with it are Improving and
they expect to resume operations at

or politics while here. His friends
in Columbus realized that the rail-
roads are beset with such tremendous
problems for their solution that they
steered him away from these sub
jects, knowing that the. diversion
would be appreciated.
He called upon the Mayor while in

citizens.

Shameless Neglect
of Disabled Soldiers
Capt. w. A. Percy Gives People OF
Mississippi Some Salient
Facts.

That it is the first duty of the Fed
eral government to care for the dis
abled veterans of the World War, who
are now being shamefully neglected,
instead of talking about a bonus for
all soldiers, is the declaration of Capt.
W. A. Percy, of Greenville, in a letter
being sent to all local posts of the
American Legion, Rotary Clubs, and
commercial bodies in Mississippi.
Capt. Percy sets forth some very
interesting facts in regard to the
neglect of our disabled soldiers, his
letter being as follows:
81 have been appointed by Col. H.
L. Stimson, ExSecretary of War,
State Chairman for the Committee for
Aid to Disabled Veterans and Re-
frendum on Bonus. May l call your
attention to certain facts which neces-
state the forming of such commit
tee and which now cause me to write
you regarding it?
1--WE ex-service men have beer
thinking that at least our disabled
comrades of the service were being
adequately provided for by our Gov
eminent, but recent reports from the
heads of departments in Washington
show that nothing could be farther
from the truth. DR.. w. G. Rucker,
Chief Medical Advisor of the Bureau
Of War Risk Insurance, a few weeks
ago stated that Gal 900 men were dis
charged from the Army and Navy
with disabilities. To handle that num-
Der along the lines started by the Vo-
cational Beard would cost, he said,
not less than 1926, 100000 a year. 1t
is interesting to read in DR.. Fuckers
tabulated statement that of the 641,-
900 disabled ex-service men 1894
suffer from pscho-nurosis, 1894 are
insane, and 46,310 have tuberculosis.
What has our Government done for
these men who last year it would have
called heroes? This year it treats
them as eontemptuously as if they
