LEGION COMMANDER, DRAWS
FIRST CHECK ISSUED TO
EN-SERVIGEMEN HERE

Bonus claims made by the ex-ser-
vice men of the county are being paid,
orriving at the rate of about 20 each

der Of the American Legion post had
the honor OF receiving the first one

The largest check received is S40O
which is the limit to any veteran. The
average checl. is about s325. Any ex-
s1eryice man who has rot made his
application should do so at once, so
there will not be anyone in the county
who is entitled to this com pensation
without it
According tc information from Buell.
Jones. Of Brtton, one of the mem
bers Of the bonus board, the checks
are being paid according to county,
a per cent being taken from each
county each dav. In this way the
claims are not paid as they were re-
ceiyed, as was the first plan. This plaf,
that all Of the claims will be paid
before Christmas and the difference
in time wcuid be very slight.
The commander Of the Legion Post
wishes to warn the service men to be-
ware of ahaTpers anil slickc,s who

buncoed many thousands OF dollars
from the veterans. His advice is to
place the monev in savings uccount
or coed safe place where il will be
bard TO get.
As there were close to 400 claims
made out here the estimated amount
OF onev which will come to Mil.
bark will be between $4,000 and
100000. This will make money some
what easier in the county anG thru.
