ing ST Collection for
Federal Bonus Drive
Ultimatum to Cut Out
Red Tape Sent to War
Risk, Health and Voca-
tional Training Boards

Apparently the National Bonus Drive
Committee, which from its headquar-
ters in the Hotel Majestic, this city,
has been soliciting contributions of 81
each from war veterans to raise a fund
for the financing of campaign for the
Federal bonus, must proceed without
the Endorsement either of the American
Legion or the Veterans of Foreign
Wars
Several days ago Commander Charles
G. Blakeslee, head of the Legion in
New York state, issued statement
protesting against such contributions
on the ground that they are not neces-
sary and that the Legion's national
treasury is prepared to defrav any eX
penses in connection with the campaign
for TIE four-fold compensation plan
now before the United States Senate.
Yesterday Commander in Chief c.
Woodside Of the Veterans of Foreign
Wars, published statement in which
he said, among other things: CAS- an
organization we have ALWAYS worked
consistently for adjusted compensation
for the service men and we have not,
neither do we intend to solicit funds
for this purpose
"The Nat.ona. Bonus Drive Commit
tee was not organized by the Veterans

understand it is an outgrowth of the
New York Bonus Parade Committee,
composed o. members OF both the Vet
Grams Of Foreign Wars and the Ameri-
Commander in Chief woodside has
stated his position clearly to those vet
erans who are opposed to tho collection
of lobbying fund. If any members of
the Veterans OF Foreign Wars, or of the
American Legion are to undertake this
campaign they are doing il without the
official saction Of the two largest vet
erans' organizations in the country.
