S5OO,OOO.OOO FOR WARS
DISABLED ANNUALLY
Sweet Bill Makes Hail a Billion
Available For Ex-Ser-
vice Men.

Washington. Aug. s.--Approximately
sSeo.oeo.ooo has been pledged by Con-
Eress annually for the care of the sick
and disabled soldiers and sailors of the
World War. This is exclusive of in
Furance which the survivors will re-
cei,e and of any bonus which may at
some future time be awarded by Con-
gresS.
Considering the number of disabled
men involved, high authorities insist
That the. American Government isaac
cording more generous treatment in the
matter Of money, of rehabilitation and
of disqualification. 10 its veterans who
suffered disabilities i'm the service, than
A. any other Government that engaged
in the war.
These are outstanding facts of the
legislation which Congress has Just
enacted under what is known as the
Sweet bill. a measure To which Presi-
c"nt Harding has already committed
himself and one which he is expected
to for..aally approve soon after his re-
turn from his New England vacation.
For weeks the House and Senate
have been engaged in perfecting the
hill. which consolidates all the agencies
which deal with incapacitated service
men and which is designed to bring =
degree of efficiency and dispatch to
that work which has been lacking in
the past and which has been the cause
of nation-wide dissatisfaction.
The new enactment makes 10 more
or iess important changes III the pres
cnt system of treating and training dis
shlcd soldiers and sailors. Under the
old law the administration of Govern
ricnt insurance and all compensation
claims is performed by the Bureau of
War Risk Insurance. the hospitaliza-
tion. medical care and treatment, by
the United States Public Health Ser
vice. and the vocational training by the
rederal Board Of Vocational Educa
ton.
The Sweet hill Cpnsolidases and CEN
fraiizes all Of these bureaus by Great
fnE an independent organization under
which they merge, 10 he known as the
Veterans Bureau. This bureau is
placed directly under the jurisdiction
OF the President.
The present law limits the medical
care and treatment of incapacitated
veterans 20 those suffering with SER
vice disease or injury of 10 per cent
o. more. The new hill extends medi-
cal care and treatment to all service
men suffering from disease or injury
virgin OF less that 10 per cent as well
- above that mark. Many dental,
svvxa. .sar, nose and throat cases, where
dsscehslity W. le~s thap 10 per cent, now

AMERICAN WAR PRISONER IN
SOVIET JAIL, NEAR MOSCOW,
ESCAPES TO POLISH BORDER

| ''Lenine is still the most popular
man in Russia today and his personal
| following far outnumbers Trotsky.
! He is idolized and his pictures are
! found in every conceivable place
/ Other pictures and posters bear quo
tations from his speeches which are
accepted by the peasants like the
gospel as the negroes say in Florida
According to Captain Cooper travel
crs in Russia today will see two pic
tues OF l.enine to evury one of TrOt-
sky. A favorite poster is one depict
ing Karl Marx in the center and
fianked with two smaller pictures OF
the Russian leaders. Trotsky, Cooper
declares, has not the confidence of the
masses of the people that Lenine mas.
and many persons expressed the opin-
ion that the biggest single factor
holding the Russian Government to-
day is Lenine's personal prestige.
Despite the faith of the people in
Lenine the masses of the people are
dissatisfied" continued Cooper. "BUt
they are dissatisfied in hopeless
way, for they have accepted the
Communist government with an air
OF fatalism and those who might have
overturned the present government
and established a new government in
Russia have all been disposed of. The
people are hopeless and say that Rus
sia faces two extremes. One is the
continued rule of the Communists
which is undergoing some modifica-
tions and the other is complete an
archy which would come if Commun-
ism should fail. believe that the
Soviets will rule for some time to
come
THE present government of Russia
would be popular government if it
could feed the people and if the Cheka
were abolished. The Cheka has every
one terrorized, The saying is that one
of every four persons is a member of
one of the Chekas, or spy. One of
the Russian officers with whom had
been imprisoned and who had been
informed that he was to be released
told me that at home he had four
children and that he was almost
afraid TO go home to them for the fear
that one of them would be a spy.
Whether or not the Cheka will be
that the leaders of the systems would
not exist very long fit were abolish

as it is known, as necessary to the
transition period through which the
country is passing.
There are several Chekas, military
and political, and branches OF this
organization exist in every group of
workers, such as the railroad Cheka.
There are even a number Of spies in

And speaking of the jails, it is
very sad to see the children calling
at the prisons to see their fathers and

Riga, June 2.-Captain Merriam G.
Cooper, foJacksonville, Fla, who es-
capped from a Soviet war prisoner S
camp near Moscow on April II and
who walked and rode on freight
trains to the Latvain frontier, has
arrived here with new stories of the
government in Russia During his
eight months in Soviet Russia Cap
tain Cooper found the prisons bad,
but well administered and as good
as can be expected.
Captain Cooper gives the entire
credit for his successful escape to
Lieutenant Sokoloski and Captain
Zaleski, two Polish officers who ac-
companied him. These officers, he re-
lates, succeeded in convincing the
peasanst and even some of the guards
on the railway bridges that they were
escaping Austriaa war prisoners and
that Cooper was a German prisoner
anxious to get home. He says that
both men have real American nerve"
for they bluffed everyone they met
and learned how to flip freight trains
with the expert eas e of an American
hobo They also aided Cooper to
build the brsh leantos at night.
These leantos were not very warm
and Captain Cooper tells how they
would drive them forth at and 5
O'Clock in the morning TO continue
their tramp munching on their daily
ration of a pound of black bread,
their only food during the entire trip
The peasants. refused to give us
food so we had TO trade the extra
suits of Undertaking which we took
With us for bread" said Captain
Cooper. When we had traded all of
the clothing that we could possibly
spare and keep from freezing at night
traded my pipe, which had silver
band on il, for seven pounds of bread
and with this we finished the trip
THE most exciting moment came
about three days out Of Moscow while
we were waiting by the railroad for
freight 10 pass Two guards came
along and we had to lie in a ditch
full of icy water for two hours while
they talked OF the probability of
trade. Another time that was scar
ed waswhen we were lying on top of
one of the big heating ovens in the
home Of the peasant smuggler who
agreed to get us into Latyia for the
price of my shoes and lieutenant So
koloski's overcoat.
1.-The entire family sleeps on these
ovens during the Winter and beneath
there ST generally a space for few
pigs or calves. We were up there for
twentyfour hours and the lieutenant
slept most of the time and kept me
busy holding his nose to stiile his
snores when the family was receiving
Red soldier callers.
my information about Russia was
gathered from the influx and out
flow of the prisnoers in the various
prison camps where j was stationed
and also from the peasants whom
met during the winter when j worked
on railroads entering Moscow and
during my escape.

any other branch Of their activities.
THE propaganda section is anoth-
er of the few efficient branches OF the
government. There is scarcely a per-
son with whom | talked in Russia
who is not inore or less affected by
| this propa gdud9. At the present tire
among the workers and the peasants
| there is a bitter hatred against the
Entente. Wherever | have been the
Allies are pictured on posters as be-
ing the real causes of the present
misery in Russia.
However, the feeling toward Am
erica is even friendly.
Many Communists told me that
they regard revolution j nthe Unit
ed States as a remote possibility and
that they think our country must
change to Communism by general
process of evolution.
There are three very popular post
ers in Russia which have seen wide
ly displayed. One pictures a French
general whispering into the ear of a
pig with q Polish hat on. Another
shows Uncle Sam as an opulent capi
talist, with two similar figures repre-
senting France and England reach
ing out for the gold of the Russian
workingman. The third shows Red
soldier lunging with his bayonet at
figure of Wrangel, and the second
half OF the poster shows the coat rip
ped away and a number of Allied
officers in the figure.
"One particularly clever piece of
propaganda work now being affused
with the Polish war prisoners is this
Before each batch of prisoners is re-
patriated it is given better food for a
month or six weeks and then all of
and d decent suit OF clothes. Since
the Polish Russian neace treaty was
signed their food has improved great
ly and when these soldiers get home
they will be walking advertisement
for the Soviet government.
But of tn etotal number of prison
ers captured it is safe to say that at
least one-third have either died of
starvation or of disease. The treat
ment of the prisoners also varies
Upon being captured each is ques-
toned separately. They are asked
if they were drafted or if they volun-
teered. The volunteers have the
hardest time of it.
But ] saw no brutal treatment in
the prisons and the guards were
friendly and some of them would even
share their rations with the prison
ers. All of the prisons contain a
number of foreigners of various ma
tionalities who call themselves Com
munists and who are being detained
on the suspicion of being spies,
There are no laws in Russia to-
day, and the Government is enforced
by DEGREES. And the decrees are en-
forced by the revolutionary con
science of the Communist party. AS
for the party, it is the real aristoc-
racy of Russia today and tbs one OF
the most exclusive organizations
which have ever been organized in
Russia.
THE party is not composed of
working people, for whenever work
ingman is admitted he either takes a
political or a military job. The party
members distinguish themselves from
the rest of the population by either
wearing badge with the Communist
emblem embossed or revolver on a
Sam Brown belt. AS members of the
