The members OF the house realized
the pernlcious effect OF the sale or
great quantities of aeronautical ma

and the Tilson bill was hailed as
piece of beneficial legislation.
Then, on Friday evening, the DAY

ate for action. The bill was sponsored
by Senator Harry S. New, of Indiana,
who has been more or less active in at
tempted legislation along aeronautical
lines during the entire session or the
Sixty-slxth congress.
What happened is this: Senator New
made n motion for favorable consider

M. Hitchcock of Nebraska objected,
and his objection held good until the
vice president banged his gavel on the
historical marble slab and declared the
senate adjourned. The bill was dead

u. S. Army Uniforms VIII Now Fit the Men

THE ARMY has found the perfect
i man. 1t all came about because
of the poor fitting uniforms with which
Uncle Sam had TO equip his army. The
uniforms have been made to order on
antiquated patterns, held to by the
war department from time immemor-
Ial. Try as they could army officers
couldn't fit the recruits. Every now and
then, by accident, uniform would
"ht like the paper on the WALL but
in the ma Jority of cases the soldier
found himself wrapped IN swaddling
clothes instead Of wearing a snug
fitting military dress.
Just before the war the army took
measurements of 1000 men. From the
average. the patterns were made by
which uniforms were ordered. But the
result was the same. The clothes
wouldn't fit.
But from now on they probably
will. DR.. c. b. Davenport, of the Car
negie institute of Washington, and
major in the surgeon generals depart
ment of the army, has solved the prob
lem.
Measurements of 100000 men Of mil
itary age. the number being made up
from every state and the District of
Columbia, were taken during the war.
The measurements show that while
a man in Washington has an average
chest measurement of from SO to 50

Home Service Report.

Returned American soldiers, in
large numbers, are handicapped, some
partially or totally disabled by dis
ease. They have come home bring
ing new problems and new response
bilities to the government and the
Institutions they have fought to save.
Their welcome has been the utmost
outpouring of the country's gratitude
and love, of true friendship on the
part of our citizens. The response
bility of the state to care for it's dis
abled fighting men is now recogniz-
ed throughout the world to an extent
unknown before the latest war. In
the modern view the country must
not only endeavor to restore these
men to bodily health, but must en-
deavor to make good the material
loss on the economic side. Men who
have risked their lives for their coun-
try Justly deserve and expect the
highest consideration and care as the
nation has decided to give them. Yet
there is much to be done, and while
the responsibility of the government
for the measures to be taken is su-
preme, there is need and opportun-
ity for the cooperation of other agen-
cies in the care Of these men.
On May 7th received a wire from
headquarters urging immediate &C

one of the most important parts of a

reach the mind as we'll as the body, it
is to be hoped that Eddie will return

The following extracts from a letter
from headquarters was recently re-
ceived: wish to thank you for your
cooperation and assistance in secur-
ing compensation and disqualification
for Edward. 1t has been very diff
cult matter to secure for him the
