(WEEPING recommendations de
y signed to increase the efficiency of
the veterans bureau have been
made In a report by the special senate
committee investigating government ac-
tivitieS for the relief of former serv-
Ice men. The report was the commit
tees second. The bureau should
broaden its Interpretation and widen
the scope of application of existing
laws" the report said, adding that adj
1itiOnal legislation would be sought
to meet deficiencies shown. Among
recommendations we're:
Appropriation Of $16, 100000 for hos

hospitals, including soldiers homes
not needed by the army and navy, to
the bureau, creation Of a chaplain
corps for service in hospitals and
training centers; provision Of Gene
teries at soldiers hospitals; standard
lzation of training, permitting the APP
picant to select as far as possible his
own vocation; extension Of insurance
to $4,000 to each policyholder if he
desires, and extension Of insurance
and compensation privileges to Amer
leans who served in allied forces. 49,

CLEVELAND, O.-Carl T. Robert
u son, naturalist, in the course of
an exploration of Mammoth Cave,
KY, has made one of the most i'm
portant discoveries in the history Of

In part, is as follows:
"Then we came to a region of hello
tiles which is, dare say, the most
marvellous ever seen by human eye.
Helictites four or five inches long are
considered notable. Here was one four

CHARLES EVANS STARTS
SERVING TIME AT DEER LODGE

Charles Evans of Culbertson must
serve time in the state ~penitentiary at
Deer Lodge, according to a decision
recently handed down by the supreme
court, and in accordance with that de-
cision he left Monday evening for that
place unescorted and reported to War
den Potter, who reported his arrival.
This is an old case in which Evans
was convicted of cattle stealing and
was sentenced by the district court
to a term of from five to ten years
in the p~enitentiary. This was five or
six years ago and the EAST has been
before the supreme court ever since.
Last July this court handed down a
decision sustaining the lower court
but another stay of sentence was
granted and when a review of the
case was asked for. However, this
last was the last resort and when the
higher court upheld the decision of the
district court all hope was lost and
Evans decided to give himself up to
the warden and start serving his sem
tence.
With the necessary commitment
papers and a letter of introduction to
the warden he left here Monday reach
ing there next day and is now started
ia serve his MISUNDERSTANDING Tri-
bune.

his order to all postal employees to put

ours is a nation of newspaper read

total calculations for that year as
1~1,27O,559,316 copies, or 1866 per
