The recommendation to be made to

king gx.esrvies Men.

The harpies who prey on public
sympathy and the vampires who At
tach themselves to every legitimate
and worthy campaign for the relief Of
human distress. have been flying In
Jocks behind the trudging army of job
hunting ex-service men. The police
courts are revealing the sordid opera
lions Of scores Of avarlcious persons
who have been conducting money-rais-
Ing campaigns on get-rich-Quick ba-
sis. on the pretense Of assisting unem.
ployed World war veterans. Some Of
these fy-by-night promoters have
formed large organizations, using as
dupes veterans who are, themselves,
honest, but have been induced by ur-
gent need to grasp at the straw of
Job which the swindIer bangles before
them.
Behind shield Of FEASIBILITY, the
promoter sends his money solicitors
out upon the public. Needless to say,
little Of the money raised actually is
used to assist the unemployed ex-
service men. The promoter takes good
care to see that his account books, II
he keeps any, never record the full
amounts which have been extracted
from the sympathetic public. And II
he makes pretense Of accounting for
the way the money Is expended, this
accounting Is only a clever construc.
ton Of falsities. intended to protect
the promoter. II he is made the SUBJ
1ect Of inquiry by public officials. The
system by which he operates precludes
honesty.
These swindleD often copy the
names and methods Of organizations
which are legitimate and have repu-
table sponsors. The names the en-
ployment swindlers select for their or
CARNATIONS only too often inspire pub
lie confidence because they may easily
he confused with those Of ong-existing
public charitable societies. The Amer.
lean Legion Il constantly on the watch
to detect, expose and prosecute organi.
sations victimizing ex-service men.
The public should come to know that
any organization ostensibly for the
help Of unemployed veterans should be
regarded suspiciously II It does not

COLD STORAGE PLANT
Broad Street Grocer Has Plans 7
Convert BOllcrcr Block

Much interest is being manifested
by several local grocery and meat
men in the proposed plans Of Her
man Kalinawtz to establish a cold
storage plant in this city.
Mr.. Kalnawitz, who is the proprio-
tor of a grocery store at 80 Broad
street, thinks that the Bollerer build
ing on Commercial street would ho
suitable for the purpose, the only OBJ
lection being that it is removed from
the railroad He plans to block the
windows with brick, line the walls
and set up an ice plant in the cellar.
Anyone who had anything to be stor-
ed could do so for a specified charge
and in this way, much of the expense
Of cold storage would be wiped out.
The plan seems to be a good one and
in MIR. kalinawitz' opinion, the cos;
would not exceed $4,000.

New Britain herald., 1921-12-20

The regular meeting of the Bolton
kasica post will be held at the T. A.
q. hall in Kensington tomorrow eve
ming at s o'clock. At this time the
question of changing the time of the
annual meeting will be brought before
he members.
At the last meeting of the organiza-
ion this same question was brought
up but due to the fact that there
were not enough members present 1t
was decided to adjourn and the ques-
lion was not settled. Adiutant Law
renee Southland has studied the pro-
position and found that in most all
branches of the legion the annual
meetings are held in the fall and not
IN the spring.
It has been the custom OF the Ser
lin Legion to elect officers in April
but as a general rule the meetings are
discontinued in the summer time and
the new officers after being elected
are not given much of chance to
AXE hold and when the meetings are
again resumed in the fall they have
somewhat fallen behind and it takes
considerable time to get the organl-
cation moving along in an Al condi-
lion.
Although no officers of the legion
have stated such, it is possible that
some sort of action will be taken this
evening on the removal of the honor
roll in front of the Town hall on
Berlin street. At previous meeting
he boys were not in favor of the
BOARD being taken down but still
others feel that if some sort of
remembrance in the form of preserv-
ng the record of each man is made,
hat they would be willing for the re
noval Of the sign.
