While some sol diers had been misled into joining the organization the rank and file, he said, stood firm against such influences.

 Urging immediate relief, J. G. Schursham of Nevada, member of the executive committee of the legion, said there was "seething unrest among former service men and women, who felt they had not received a square deal"
 They are chafing with unrest. and believe congress should take some ac- tion for their relief" he said.

There can be no doubt that the appli-
cation of First Aid methods TO each
case would immeasurably tighten the
country's toll of suffering and death
The dissemination OF First Ald tram
ing and information has already pro-
dnced a farreaching and beneficial In
f1uence in the prevention OF accldents
on railroads. in mines and in great In
dusrrial concerns.
The benefit of widespread knoWi-
edge of First Aid in the event OF a
great disaster, such as train wreck,
an explosion, an earthquake, etc. Is
obvious. Laymen who have had flrs'
