INCREASE FOR DISABLED MEN
barrow Dill Eniarpss Amount by. $50
Month fer Veterans While TAX
ing Training.

Another important victory In the
American Legion's long fight for bene-
fcial legislation In behalf of sick and
disabled ex-service men Is revealed In
a telegram announcing passage OF the
bill. recently received at Legion ma
tiOnal headquarters from Thomas w.
Miller. chairman OF the organizations
national legislative committee in
Washington.
The senate in a night session, ac-
cOrding to the message. passed the
measure as a rider to the deficiency
appropriation bill. and as 1t previously
had been passed by the house, 1t now
awaits only the signature of the presi-
dent TO become a law.
The barrow bill Increases. by $40 a
month, the amount OF money paid to
disabled veterans Of the world war
while taking training under the direc-
ton of the federal board of vocational
education. =,
This Is the second time the Legion
has obtained an increase for the
manned heroes, having pushed through
congress. last December, the Sweet
bill. which raised the amount of com.
pensation for them from $50 to $50
a month.
"The passage Of the barrow BILL"
said Lemuel Bolles, national adjutant
of the, Legion, twas largely due to the
work done by LegiOnnaires who visited
Washington in its interest. General
published reports. at that time indi-
Gated that the Legion representatives
confined their activities solely to the
pending fourfold optional. compensa-.
ton bill. Results show that the needs
of the disabled men always have stood
first on the LegiOn's program and the
organization is going right on working
for these unfOrtunates, irrespective of
what congress may or may not see ft
to do with the problems of ex-service
men as a whole.
''The passage OF the barrow bill will
give great impetus to. the LegiOn's co,
