 The bonus law, by which every per son who served in the world war as soldier, sailor, marine or nurse who was a resident of Rhode Island at the time of entry into the service will re- ceive $100, contingent upon the pass age by the people of a vote authoriz- ing the Issuance of bonds to the value of S2500 000,. to meet the pro- visions of the law. It is estimated that the cost of distribution will be S26,Go0 and of this the secretary of the board is to recevje $5,000. The secretaryehip will rot go to any former service man the plum having been pccked before it is ripe by political pull.
 While the bonus law is commend able in the main, still it is an injus- tice to. many Rhode Island National Guardsmen, wf2o were in the war from the beginning te the, end thereof, who were credited to Rhode Island, and to no other state, but who will not re- ceive the bonus as they were not res idents of the state. Here's an illustra = ton:

C., that went into service early as a lart of hhcoa Islands mill ltary contingent were residents of Pawctucl1, Conn.,. at the time, and ther efore will be deprived of the state bonus. Some of the commiss. .oned of fcers have been in the Rhode Island military service since before the Spanish American war, and been in continuous service until quite recent ly. All served tll; cugh the world war. These officers have always been cred fted to Rhode Island and never to Connect eet- though residents of that state. These are barred from the bo- nus as are also all other, Connecticut men who went into the regular ser Vice with the Westerly company of the Rhode Island National Guard The law stipulates that no soldier or

But nc section of tae law in any way beneiita the Ceta tieut residents, credited in federal ;siid state records to the IT ilitary service of Rhode Island. In justice to these really Raade Island soldiers, that bo- nus law ought to be amended so as not to discriminate, They helped fill the quota of the state and are enti- lied to recognition. and can claim no military recognition for their resi- dential state. Perhaps there are like instances, as these on the state boHn- 6ary lines.
