GIVES ADVICE
To APPLICANTS
COL. FRED RAY DISCC SSE :
THOSE WHO SHOULD FILE
CLAIMS FOR SOLDIER
BONUS.

Pierre, Aug. S.-Every man or
woman who was attached to some
branch of the governments service
Spanish-American war or the Philip
pine insurrection. and who think
they may have Il claim to soldiers
compensation from South Dakota,
should fill out their applications at
once. stating the circumstances of
their service and submit them TO the
state bonus board for it's decision. ac-
cording to the declaration of Fred
Ray, executive head of the board
We want no feeling of dissa atisfac-
tion," Mr. Ray said. We want ap-
plications from all S. A. T. C. men
regardless of whether they believe
they come under the classification
of those disqualified from the bonus
That point is for the board to decide
only few days ago man came
into the boards office and made the
remark that he had cheated himself
out of the bonus. He said he for
merly lived here in the state, but
before the war moved to Minnesota.
When the first officers, training
camp at Ft. Smelling was announced
he applied, was admitted and came
out a lieutenant. Because he wanted
to go with his friends from South
Dakota he applied for leave, which
was granted, and came to this state,
where he remained for three weeks.
Finally he was ordered to take
charge of a South Dakota unit and
went to Camp Cody.
Here was a man who, although
he had moved to Minnesota, could
really justly claim this state as his
home. The law requires that appli-
cants show they were residents OF
South Dakota for a period of so days
before they actually entered the SER
vice. He was not actually in the ser
vice WIN h was attending the Off
GERS training camp and that time
could fairly be credited TO him as
South Dakota residence. He was told
to make out an application and have
it properly signed. He did and his
application has been passed"

GIVES STATUS
FEDERAL FUND
LOANS FOR STOCKMEN FROM
POOL OF $5O,OOO, 900.

Pierre. Aug. S.-The discussion of
the application of the $4,000, 600
pool for livestock loans to the peo-
pie of the country raised so much
discussion in this state that Don Liv-
ingston, head of the department of
agriculture, made a trip TO Chicago
headquarters of the pool, to learn
just what could be done for South
Dakota livestock men to get the
benefit of this pool
He visited Minneapolis and had
conferences with the bankers of that
city, including the federal reserve
bank, and went from there to Chi
cago, where he had conferences with
bankers and the head CT the pool.
He found that while the Stock
Growers Finance corporation, which
is handling this fund, had announced
that ii was ready to do business; in
fact. they had not worked out the
details as yet and were only getting
under way, although they had made
a number of loans, some of them in
South Dakota.
Apparently the corporation will
insist upon the class of security it
wants before il will make any loans.
In regard to complaints which have
arisen in this state. the officers of
the corporation say that the securi-
ties which have been offered in some
instances, while they might be con-
cid ohc al of a
where the moral risk could be con-
sidered, when ii comes to the cor
porations' loans, nothing but actual
negotiable security can be consider
ed that in some cases where bank
ers have guaranteed the loans, the
bank itself was not considered as OF
sufficient standing to stand the test
demanded; that in other cases,
where the bank endorsement would
be good for loans to meet the re-
quirements, the applications on their
face indicated an attempt to carry
frozen" credits. and no such leans
will be made, but that with the pre-
sentation of proper securities. loans
can be secured.
One feature which may possible
make il hard for the small cattleman
to get such relief is that the corpor
alton has practically decided to make
the minimum loans $4,000. This
leaves the small owner out in many
cases. but is is suggested that while
the limit will not be reduced. ar
rangements might be made to divide
a loan.
To sum up the situation, South Da-
kota is assured of liberal treatment
in loans if it can supply the security
demanded and covering such loans
as the corporation is willing to mike.

DAWES Is THE
LONE HOPE
UNLESS BUDGET DIRECTOR, CAN
CUT EXPENSES PROMISED
ECONOMY Is A DREAM.

Washington, Aug. S.-The hopes
of the house ways and means COM
mittee that taxes can be reduced
this year now are pinned on Hell
and Maria" Dawes, director of the
budget.
Determined to cut this years gov
ernmental expenditures $1,000, ,00O,-
600 below the s4,550 100000 esti-
mate of Secretary of the Treasury
Mellon, the committee plans will ask
Dawes to seek a program by which
this economy can be effected.
The secret hope of the committee
is that Dawes will let fly some OF
his choicest "cuss" words at those re-
sponsible for government extrava-
gance and then ''use the AK" in cut
ting off their appropriations. Dawes
probably will appear before the COM
mittee within the next few days.
Opposition to many new forms or
taxation proposed by Secretary Mel
lon continued to grow among House
leaders. They planned to continue
their fight to reduce the nations tax
bill by 500, 100000.
In a statement published today
however, Representative Mondell, OF
Wyoming, the republican leader, de-
clares that in his judgment it is en-
tirely practical to reduce the total
tax levy by $3.50, 100000 and still
take care of the essential needs OF
the government.
Representative Mondell came ou'
flatly against any increased postage
and bank check tax. The republican
leader also has said he doubted either
the necessity or the advisibility OF
the automobile levy. He declared
for repeal of the transportation ano
soda water taxes. the excessive prof
its tax and the higher income surtax'
es, with additional revenue provided
through a pc rcent, increase In the
corporation income tax.

TEACHER SUPPLY
NOW IS AMPLE
EXPECTED THERE WILL BE OV-
ERSUPPLY BY FALL, FOR
FIRST TIME IN YEARS.

Pierre, Aug. S.-Judging from
present prospects an over-supply of
teachers, for the first time in four
years in South Dakota, is probable
next fall, according to c. T. King,
deputy state superintendent of pub
lie instruction. This condition is
due in part at least, Mr.. King as
serts, to the financial stringency and
probable hard times.
Almost daily" the deputy super
intendent said in discussing the mat
ter, I'VE are receiving 90 or more ap-
plications for teachers certificates
from people in Indiana, Pennsylvan-
ia, Illinois and other central and east
ern states. Many of these are un-
able TO qualify under our standards.
being only high school graduates or
college students who through force
of circumstances expect to delay their
education a year and teach. Scores of
former South Dakota teachers who
dropped the profession to go into
other work during the war are also
writing, asking to be reinstated.
This improved condition of the sit
uation thought by some to be serious
last spring when many of the schoo
districts announced they would re-
duce their teachers salaries. has re-
lieved the department of much wor
ry. In view OF the difficulty expert
enced last fall in securing the neces-
sary number of teachers for this
state, it was believed that the salary
cut would result in an unprecedent-
ed shortage when the schools opened
this fall
