Of bonus claims at big discounts, q

were submitted by Art F. Collar at
the annual meeting of Gilbert C..

in Fargo Tuesday night.
The resolution asked the command
er to appoint q committee Of three
with power to put on a drive among
Legion men for deposits to create the
fund from which loans will be made
to the service men who are in need.
The plan, which also encourages
thrift among the Legion men, has the
endorsement. Of G. Angus Fraser, ad.
jutant general Of North Dakota.
The general features Of the pro-
posed scheme are that no loan will
be made which will exceed so per
cent Of the bonus due the ex-service
man. Arrangements have been made
with the adjutant generals Office to
accept the bonus claim assignments
and protect the proposed organization
which will be formed Of ex-service
men. At the time that the mans
bonus is due to be paid, the adjutant
general will draw two warrants, one
for the amount due on the assign
ment and the other for the balance
due the ex-soldier. Thus, every dol
lar which is loaned ID backed by Sc
curity which 10 worth 100 cents on

"Where q financial loan or obliga-

savings fund be made only after a
