American Legion plans IL necessary to

The legion has addressed a letter to

that the "impossibility of emergency
officers" to receive relief lis the same
old fight between the army and the
national guard" and that the War
Department has yet to indicate that
1t has the slightest interest or wish
equitably to afford relief to those who
left civil life to lead and were disabled
while the West Pointers, who were
educated at Government expense and
were given higher rank during the
war, are leaving the service and re-
ceiye during the remainder of their
life three-quarters of their active pay.
The legion further has let II be known
that plans for drastic action will be
presented to the organizations con-

PROJECT IS
bR0ACHED
IN SENATE:
Stanley Offers Bill Directing
New Bureau to Prepare
Plans At Once.

A notwithstanding Hospital, to be
located in the District of Columbia,
and to provide treatment for all dis
abled war veteran, is the proposal
Of Senator Stanley of Kentucky. =.
Introduces Bill.
He introduced a bill in the Senate
yesterday authorizing the directors
of the Veterans Bureau to proceed
Immediately with splans for the struc-
ture. The measure was referred to
the Committee on Military Affairs,
of which Senator Wadsworth is chair
man, and effort will be made to pro-
cure early action upon 1t.
Senator Stanley's idea Is to give all
the world war veterans suffering
from neuro-psychiatric diseases sep
arate and segregated treatment in an
institution especially adapted to their
use. He thinks the ideal point for
locating such a hospital is in the
District. ~.
Senator Stanley 10 anxious to have
the report corrected that the new
institution should be nearly an expan-
sion of he existing facilities at st.
Elizabeth's. His plan is to have
an entirely Independent institution.
II do not think that soldiers suf-
fering from severe nervous diseases
should be mixed In with any other
patients" said Senator Stanley. "They
provide a distinct class requiring
segregation and specialized treatment,
and the nation owes 1t to them to
provide in most scientific way for
their care. ~.
Leeway to Forbes.
Under the plan Of the Stanley
measure a considerable discretion
with regard to the construction Of the
hospital Is left to the director Of the
veterans bureau. He Is not physically
directed to erect the hospital in the
District, although the bill declares
that 1t should be erected here unless
there are strong reasons for not doing
SO. r# r.. o..
No calculation has been made as to
the number Of patients a $4,000, 900
hospital would accommodate. but Sen
ator Stanley is in favor of treating
IL possible practically all Of the war
veterans suffering from nervous dis.
eases in a single institution. T.
