THOUSANDS ADDED
TO DISABLED LIST
Cost of Training Veterans
Jumps s2,O0O,OOO in
One Month.

The cost to the government for
were disabled in the world war
jumped more than s2,OOO.OOO be-
tween the months of September and
November. according TO figures pre-
pared yesterday BY the United
States Veterans Bureau.
Col. Charles l.. Forbes. director
of the bureau. attributes this in
crease directly to the CLEANUP up
campa ign which was completed by
the bureau IN september. In this
nation wide campaign thousands of
disabi.i war eterans who were
ignorant Of the assistance the gov
ernmcnt offers them were discov-
cred ;nd ..,a. in schools and in
ships. r-uCrr they are receiving
instruction to overcome the handi-
caps OF their disabilities. Col. Forbes :
said.
On September l there were S2,73S
men receiving training under the
direction of the bureau. and the
maintenance pay amounted to $l0,-
G2s,0l6. With the first returns from
the cleanup" drive the enroll
ment in October jumped to S7,2O5,
and the maintenance cost amounted
to Sll,554.539. BY November l there
were 9l,S15 men in training. and
the maintenance cost was Sl2.736.-
63l. The December enrolment is
given as lOl.94l.
The bureau also reports that in
September there were 2l6,Sj7 active
compensation disability awards
with monthly payments totaling So
550,3S7. In October there was an
increase of 635 awards, with month
ly payments totaling s6.G32,662

incidentally the British peer has

hosiery. the sort with the heavy
ribs that gets all twisted in the
process of rolling the top. Lord
Riddell observes. that it makes one
quite dizzy trying to follow the
convolutions caused in this TYPICAL
ly American process. The British
women. he affirms, are much neater
about their hosiery. And as a re-
suit of this observation all of the
special writers on feminine topics

BILL WOULD BOND
HACKERS TO PAY
DAMAGE CLAIMS
Representative Fitzgerald
Will Offer Measure
To Protect Public.

Taxicab operators must furnish o
clsims made against them by pedes-
trians or motorists who have been
injured or whose property has been
damaged. according to a bill now
being drafted by Representative
Roy o. Fitzgerald. Of Ohio. and
which will be introduced soon.
Many cases have been brought TO
the attention OF Fitzgerald. he said
yesterday. where pedestrians and
persons driving their own cars
have sustained injuries which the
court attributed to the carelessness
OF the hacker, but before a civil
suit could be instituted the hacker
had left the city.
Many hackers do not own their
cars, Fitzgerald has been told. In
many instances after one OF these
cars has been in a collision IL has
developed that the hacker hAa
merely made an initial payment on
the machine. The mortgage Is held
by someone else. The hacker H.
without funds. and the injured per-
sons are unable 20 collect damages.
Fitzgerald believes the moral ef-
feet Of being bonded would cor
tribute largely TO more careful
driving.
Many members Of Congress an.
in sympathy with the proposed
measure, and have promised their
support Members OF both Houses
have sustained injuries in such col
Isions. Fitzgerald said yesterday.

Commissioner said yesterday that h-
favored any legislation that would
offer residents any protection and

Europe-which in practice means
fixing ratios for France and Italy.
AS to the Chinese problem. the
outlook remains confused. So far
China has shown herself dissa atisfied
with what has been done for her:
there has been a report that in the
end the Chinese delegates would
refuse to sign, and this remains a
possibility-but it is not yet either
certain or to any degree probable.
All depends in fact upon the all
I important question of Shantung-
il Chinese demands are met there,
then other pressing issues may go
over for later adjustment.
On the whole. the issue raised by
French and Italian demands for the
naval ratio allotted Japan seems far
more serious. for ii raises a new
question affecting British sea
strength. The British feel that the
combined strength of the two Medi-
terrauean countries should not be
in excess of the British total. as it
would be if the Anglo-French- -ItaI-
ian ratio were $50 This would
give FranCo-ltalian alliance nomi-
nal mastery of the Mediterranean.
Eut France and Italy demand parity
with Britain and the United States.
insisting that the submarine IS
purely and simply defensive
weapon.
No one for a moment imagines
that this dispute will dangerously
disturb the existing harmony here,
but 1t may produce temporary irrI-
tation. AS for the Chinese ques-
tions, these have been separated
from the naval and other matters
Included in the quadruple agree
ment, and, therefore, cannot affect
the arrangements which will GER
tainly form the main achievement
of the Washington conference.
Obviously, then. although the ex-
act terms of the Harding doctrine
remain undisclosed, it is already
certain that there will be no repeti-
tion of the circumstances which led
to the rejection of the treaty of
versailles. Negatively, at least. we
know that nothing will be submitted
to the present Senate which re-
peated the language or initiated the
salient features OF the Paris docu-
ment. This means there will be
neither entanglement nor commit
ment. Equally vital is the elimina-
ton of the Anglo-Japanese alliance,
without which naval limitation
would be impossible, but since al:
versions agree that the agreement
already made specifically winds up
this alliance. naval limitation, ON
which Mr.. Hughes laid almost all of
his emphasis in his opening address
OF November IL. seems also certain
to be successfully disposed Of
