Johnson. "But while the wretched and

TO TURN HOSPITAL TO STATE
Texas Department of American Legion
to ReIinquish Control OF Kerr
willie Institution

The Texas department Of the Ameri-
can Legion is completing arrangements
to turn the Legion Memorial hospital
at Kerrville over to the state, in order
that the provisions of the bill appro-
priating $1,500,000 to expand the In
stitution to capacity of 800 tubercu-
lar patients, passed by the state legis-
lature, may be carried out.
The Legion will maintain its hospital
organization, which will cooperate
with the state health officer, the super
intendent of the state tuberculosis san
itarium and the chairman of the state
board Of control, the officers desgnat-
ed to supervise the expenditure OF the
appropriation.
Charles w. Scruggs state adjutant
of the Legion, has expressed the ap-
preciation of the ex-service men as fol-
lows:
"The governor Of the great State OF
Texas has met our expectations and /
am firmly convinced has only eonsnm-
mated the sentiment of the people of
Texas by signing the Legion Memorial
hospital bill. The Legion is proud to
share with the governor and with the
legislature our inordinate pride in the
contamination of this splendid en-
deayor and fulfillment of our funda-
mental duty to Texas disabled ex-
service men,"

state has passed the following bills
affecting ex-service men: An adjusted
compensation bill, in the form of an
enabling act; an act granting TO all
ex-service men of the World war the

unauthorized use exemption from
taxation of all property held in the
name of the Legion; an act placing
under the care of Legion posts erring
