Representatives of Lawson
AirpIane Company Seek
Site for Kenosha Station
on Air Line.
WILL Be CENTRAL STATION
Plans Now Are to Make Kenosha Air
Center for All Wisconsin If Suitable
Site is Found Station Would Bring
Hundreds of Workmen to Kenosha.

A. G. Pendelton and E. G. Eckart,
two representatives. of the Lawson Air
plane company, are to be in Kenosha
this week to look over site for the
proposed passenger station for tho
giant Lawson ships. Fields within easy
distance of Kenosha, will be thorough
ly inspected SO as to see that the APP
proaches to the fields are clear from
tall distractions, such as treesRand
houses, and also to see that the ground
is level and dry. Should the field be
satisfactory, it is the intention of Mr..
Lawson to come to Kenosha for final
approval on the site selected and it will
then be but short time when hangar
will be erected to house the big ships.
Grand Central Station
The coming of the Lawson airliners
to Kenosha will mean that this city
will be the grand central passenger sta
ton for the whole state of Wisconsin.
AS it takes fifty minutes to go to the
flying field atsNew Buteler, Milwaukee,
1T is Mr.. Lawson IS plan to make the
field near Kenosha answer the purpose
for the entire southern part Of the
state, and as train and trolley ears take
about the same time from Milwaukee
to Kenosha there is the advantage of
having Milwaukee, Racine, Kenosha,
Zion, and Waukegan all thrown with
ing easy distance of the airline sta
ton, instead of having the ships stop
at New Butler only
New York via Kenosha.'
Passengers from the north who wish
to go to New York need, not have to
go by the way of Chicago, but they
could simply board a Lawson Airliner
for Detroit and fly across the lake con-
Meeting with New York ships at Buffalo.
If Kenosha wakes up to her oppor-
tunity,' said Mr.. Lawson, as he dis
cussed this matter on Saturday, eve
can make Kenosha one of the greatest
airline stations in the United States.
We would put thousands of men to
work, for it would be the main station
Of the Lawson Airline company While
we have a factory at Milwaukee we
would use the Kenosha plant and field
for assembling our ships
May Be Assembling Field.
Each new Lawson ship that is built
has to be first assembled and then given
trial flight. This would have to be
done where there is a Large field, and
as there is no field near the factory at
South Milwaukee it will b necessary
to go to suitable field within easy dis
tance, and if Kenosha has such field.
then the ships will be conveyed by rail
to this city and assembled right here.
Mr.. Lawson estimated that people for
thirty miles around will come to the
Kenosha station to ship for various
points where the liners touch on their
trans-continental route.

Wounded or Sick Ex-Ser-
vice Men Need Not Pay Ex-
penses for Treatment and
Artificial Limbs.
UNCLE SAM WILL DO IT
Surgeon General Rupert Blue Tells
Former Soldiers What the Govern
ment Is Ready to Do
for Them.

II SOlQleES, Sailors or marines VINO
went from Kenosha, are paying for
treatment by physicians or are pur-
chasing artificial limbs at their own
expense they should be informed at
once that this is not necessary and that
the United States government is
ready, willing and waiting to do these
things for them without them having
to dig down in their pockets for one
penny. In regard to this matter Sur
geon General Rupert Blue Of the Unit
ed States health service says:
Because discharged, sick or dis
abled soldiers do not know the extent
of the federal aid they are entitled to,
great many of them are buying their
own artificial limbs, paying for medi-
cal attention, or neglecting themselves,
in spite of the fact that they can get
he very best of treatment from the
government.
Men Do Not Understand.
Reports reaching the United States
Public Health Service from stations
where hospitals are in operation for the
benefit of discharged soldiers, sailors,
marines and war nurses, show that a
great number of men who served in the
war and were injured have never fully
understood the provisions of the legis-
-lation supplementing the war risk in
surance act. Under the terms of this
legislation the Public Health Service
has established hospitals at convenient
places throughout the United States for
the free treatment of any member Of
the military establishment whose dis
ability may be traced to service with
the military or naval forces. These
are civilian hospitals, not under army
discipline.
Entitled to Free Medical Aid.
The bin provides that the men are
entitled to free medical examination
to determine the extent of their dis
ability. IF found to be disabled the

pensatiOn according to the extent of
the disability, and if the case requires,

ORGANIZE TO
FIGHT HOPPERS
MEETING CALLED BY LO-
CAL COMMITTEE MONDAY
MAY oath.

The local committee of the
Farm Bureau has called meet
ing of the farmers for next Mon
day to discuss the grasshopper
situation and to ascertain the
desireability of pelfecting an or
ganization to fight the plague
which by many is believed to be
emminent this season. Two
years ago the grass hoppers
made their appearance on the
Prairie doing some damage al
though not a great deal, but last
season the country was full of
them and they did a greatdeal of
damage, in some instances eat
ing the crops clean down to the
ground.
Because of the excellent
Matching weather last season
and the many eggs found in
every section of the Prairie this
spring many people are afraid
that they will destroy all the
crops this year unless an organ
lied fight is made against them.
Many sections of the country
have already ordered poison by
the car load which can under
such conditions be secured at a
trifle of the cost that would be
entailed if everyone buys and
mixes his own poison. Also in
order to make any action effec-
tive it must be general through
out the country as the money
and labor spent individually will
be totally lost.
Mr.. Ralph M. Pavey, county
advisor will be present to explain
what other sections of the coun.
try are doing and no farmers
can afford to be absent as this
matter is worthy of serious con
sideration. The meeting will bt

FEDERAL AID
SLOW COMING
FRENCH SAYS $3.50 BASIS
WILL BE CONTINUED
ULTIMATELY.

Federal funds for road build
ing on the $3.50 basis are not
now available, but will probably
be authorized ultimately, writes
Congressman Burton L. French
to President Bevis of the Lewis
ton Commercial club, who had
sent a telegram to Mr.. French
inquiring as to the prospect of
further road appropriation legis-
lation by the present congress.
ut is my judgement that a
road building program on a fifty
fifty basis will be carried out,
but it will have to be carried out,
as | see it, in the form of pro-
gram rather than in the form of
a job to be finished up in COM
paratively sh ort time," he
writes.
The entire letter sent by Con-
gresham French to President
Bevis follows:
81 am in receipt of your tele-
gram of the 9th instant, asking
as to the prospect of federal
road appropriations in the pre-
sent congress, the amount and
probable time of enactment of
law, ETC., and / have wired you
that it is impossible to advise of
any probable action in the mat
ter and that the general senti-
ment seems to be that the coun-
try had better bring up in its
road building the program made
possible by appropriations here
tofore authorized.
81 wish that | could write you
more definitely than this, and
really have no doubt that the
road building program is one
that will be definitely followed
by the country along the basis OF
a fifty-ffty plan. The general
sentiment, however, seems to be
that there is so much road build
ingwork on at this time, that
prices are so high, materials
even scarce for some kinds ol
work, that it is unwise to force
the matter, and that a steadiel
gradual road building program
will be altogether best. and espe
