DRIVE 10 ADJUST ALL
 CLAIMS ON BY LEGION
Ex-Service Men Have Chance to Ob- tain Back Pay, Bonds, Etc,
 Due by Government.

A drive to secure immediate ad- justment of all claims of whatever nature held by ex-service men against the government, in which the Amer ican Legion has the full cooperation of the various bureaus of the war and treasury departments, will be put on by the Theodore Campbell post, it was decided at it's monthly meeting last night Questionnaires covering every possible claim which a former soldier, sailor or marine can hold against the government will be placed at every postoffice in Faulkner coun- ty, and every veteran given opportuni- ty to adjust his financial matters with his government.
 The movement to adjust claims arising from back pay, travel pay, non-receipt of liberty bonds and the like has the approval and co-opera- tion of the government as means of combating disloyalty and dissatis- faction. In many cases, world war veterans, thinking they have been treated unfairly, become disgruntled and inclined to kick A very liberal policy Is being pursued by the war and treasury departments in handling such claims, Sl,000,000 has already been refunded or paid to Arkansas vet erans through the state office of the American Legion at Little Rock. Veterans who present their claims are assured of sympathetic and prompt handling.
 Copies of the questionnaires used will be mailed by Post Commander H. L. McAlister and Adjutant W. II. Newborn to all postoffices in the county EX-service men, whether they have or have not claims, are request ed to call for copy and to fill it out. As in the case of selective ser vice, attorneys, notaries and justices

GEN, TYSON SEEKS
 PLACE ON TICKET

Knoxville, Tenn, June 29.-La"- renee D. Tyson, who as str-plIng m the sos went west to fight lndIans' today was in the west to fight for the Democratic presidential nomlna- tion. The gray-haired commander Of the 59 Brigade of the "Old Hickory division goes to the San Francesca convention with unanimous support of his states delegation, though the del egates went uninstructed for preSI- dental candidate.
 Aside from heading perhaps as many big enterprises in ,Tenf.esscc as any other man, Tyson has served as speaker of the Tennessee house of representatives; was delegate-at- large to the Baltimore Democratic convention. 1912; came within four votes of being United States senator from Tennessee, and received the vice presidential indorsement without a single dissenting vote of the 1,6O0 delegates at the state convention June

of the peace will assist those who wish assistance. When completed, the questionaires are to be returned to the legion and adjustment made direct with the government.
 This manner of combating unrest among veterans is being widely fol- lowed by the government and the le- zion, both as to actual service and as to matters arising out of enforce ment of the selective service act. An example was the recent request of a citizen here for the return of a docu- ment submitted to the war depart ment in 1918. It was not returned. It required only six days for the state office of the American Legion at Lit tie Rock to obtain the document from the adjutant general at Washington and place it again in the slands of it's owner, the six days barely represent ing the time it was in transit. The policy aims to leave citizens better satisfied with their relations to the government during the war period.

 The cur dog is the greatest prob- lem with the sheep raising industry. Will Nenable, H. H. Arrendall, W. J. Dallas and a number of others in the county tell me they have had very little trouble from this source of late years.
 To you who have large families, or prospective, 1 suggest that you buy these sheep and from your grand mother borrow a pair oi carding cards spindle wheel and loom. With her te teach you how to operate them, I an sure that within few months time you would not be complaining about the high cost of clothing, howeve, much you might complain of tht scratching qualities of the goods.

CHILDERS CAME LONG
 WAY TO GET WAGON

A. U. Childers of Willow, Dallas county, is firm believer in the worth of Ludenhaus wagons, the local agency fer which is held by s. G. Smith. When MT. Childers wore out his Ludenhaus, he looked around Willow for an agency. Finding none, he boarded the train for Conway, made his purchase here and had tke wagon expressed to Willow. H. T. Whiddon, one of the managers of the Smith store, believes MT. Childers hold the record for travel on trip for pur- pose like this, and has also given the Ludenhaus a strong testimonial.
