WORLD WAR VETS
THE SWEET BILL b

when President Harding af-
 fixed his signature, ending
 a heroic struggle of two and
 a half years for the decent
 ralization of the War Risk
 Bureau
 The WASON BILL, which
 provided for this means ot
 speedy relief for our disabl-
 ed veterans, was passed by Congress after a two year
 struggle, was vetoed by l President Wilson.
 THE SWEET BILL just
 passed by present Congress, embodies the provisions of
 the Wason Bill together
 with other desirable fea-
 lures. Under this new law the War Risk Bureau is de- centralized into fourteen re- gional offices, with I60 sub offices. The decentralized War Risk Bureau, the U. s. Public Health Service and and Federal Training Board, insofar as they have to do with eX-SerVice men and women are all consolidated under the head of a newly created Veterans Bureau.
 President Harding has has nominated Col. Chas. H. Forbes, present director of the War Risk Bureau and U. s. Public Health Service, for director of the Veterans Bureau.
 The reorganization will take effect immediately.
 Under this plan, the ag- encies for veteran relief will be removed from the juris- diction of the Treasury De- partment and the director will be directly responsible 1 to the president, thereby re- moving these relief agencies entirely from political pat ronage.
 Another feature provides i that in cases of mental de- and tuberculosis, that the burden of proof | shall rest upon the govern ment for two years from date of discharge of the ap- plicant.
 In other words, if an eX- service man or woman de- velops either malady within two years after date of dis charge, it is conceded that such condition is due to mili- tary service and compensa- tion will be immediately a. warded. Thousands of pit fable cases will thus be au- tomatically provided for.
 In the meantime, before such decentralization takes place, Director Forbes send ing forth cleanup squads to reach as many disabled ve- terans as possible under ex- isting conditions.
 As previously announced in these column, the clean up squad will visit Holbrook Sept. 23rd where they will examine and prepare cases. disqualification and Voca- tional Training will be a. warded on the spot but Compensation cases must be f f)rwarded to the district of fce.in San Francisco for in- spection and actual awards will be made in Washington until the Sweet law becomes operative.

WE ARE ON TIE EVE OF GREAT
 RECONSTRUCTION BOOM

hECUNOIhUIIIU DUUM
 Do you remember the fall of 1914? A great m any business men behaved then as if they thought the world was coming to an end. Well we lived to see the very per iod the beginning of the greatest era of prosperity the country had known up to that time!
 We now go on record stat ing our frank belief that the United States is once more approaching a great recon struction boom. Itis admit ted that imitation is inveria- ly bound to cause hardship, but business activity all over the world is scraping the bottom of the present de- pression.
 Everything moves in cy- cles. The waves of gold that are rolling in on us from abroad will certainly encourage defation. That means rising commodity prices and, of course, rising stock prices. Our Federal Reserve ratio is now very high; in other words, money credit and gold are rising and outstanding loans are decreasing.
 Where is all this money going to? We feel sure it is going to build homes and office buildings and other needed housings. We feel sure this activity is going to bring prosperity to the rail road, or at least that the railroads will be placed in such a position, due to the 12 per cent wage cut and 20 per cent freight increase, as to enable them to buy much needed equipment of iron and steel in large quantities. We know that our public utility companies are in great need of brass, copper and zinc. We know that | Germany could use a great deal of copper and cotton. The de-control of food pro- duets in Europe and in this country willresult in a high CT per capita consumption and higher prices to farmers.
 Meantime, the world is in our debt, and if it means anything to an individual to have interest payments com ing in to him on principal loaned out, then it must mean much to a nation in this position.
 Six months from now we will be looking back at the foolish fears of the public at this time, wondering how we could ever imagine that such companies as U. s, STEEL, BALDWIN LOCO MOTIVE, STUDEBAKER, PAPER ALLIS CHALMERS, CENT RAJ LEATHER, and BETH LEHEM STEEL were head ed any other way than pros perity, with a capital r.

ALSACE POTASH
 MINES RESTORED

NEW YORK, March 1.-The pot ash mines of Alsace, which before the war were operated by the Ger mans but now are under French con trol have been restored to working order and France has again become rival of Germany in the world s market as producer of this ferti- lizing agent, say French agents here. Prior to the war the Germans con trolled virtually the only source Of | the worlds supply of potash and while the great conflict was in progress farmers everywhere suffer ed from a lack of it.
 With the restoration of Alsace te France French engineers began the work of restoring the mines to act ivity and after two years of effort, now announce that new machinery has been installed. the extraction shafts repaired and refining plants 1 put in working order
 The Alsace potash beds are be lieved to be the richest in the world containing more than 3,000000 tons of pure potash and, according to es- inmates, are capable of supplying the l entire world for more than three centuries. The mines occupy 4 field l lying near Mulhouse. In the mine corridors the crystalline salts are seen lying in horizontal strips oi red, white, pink and grey, so al ternating as to give the impression of an immense flag
