RED CROSS NEWS

Audubon County Chapter was
we'll represented at the Red Cross
Regional Conference of Chapter
Delegates from southwestern Iowa,
at Red Oak, May 4th. 1t was a
very interesting and beneficial meet
ing for the Home Service section,
as we'll as for the Public Health
section. Mr.. r. G. Brandon, assist
ant manager; Miss Ada Palmer,
Home Service field representative,
and Miss Erdman, Public Health
field representative, all from the
Central Division headquarters, Chi
cago, conducted the conference.
Perhaps it is not known to every
one that the government has asked
the American Red Cross to assist
ex-service men and service men in
filing any claims they may have
against the government. The Home
Service sections have been urged to
carry on this work until all claims
have been filed. Especial attention
is to be given to the compensation
claims. More compensation claims
have been filed in the last few
months than ever before. There
are many reasons for this but the
principal ones are that in many
cases the disability does not devel-
ope until months after discharge,
and that most ex-service men hest
tate in filing claims, unless convinc-
ed it is their right; expecting to be
cured of their war disability. On
account of an order which was is
sued soon after the armistice was
signed, that all compensation claims
must be filed inside of year after
discharge, many thir.s they are not
entitled to file claim. This order,
like many others, has been changed
II an ex-service man has a disabili-
ty incurred or aggravated while in
service, he has right to file claim
for compensation. If you are an ex-
service man and have a war disa-
bility, file your claim now. If you
have son, brother, husband, faith
err or friend, who has a war disabil-
ity. urge him to file claim at once.
The longer you put off filing claim
the more difficult to prove that dis
ability was caused while in service.
1t is the hope of the Audubon Coun-
ty Chapter to have every ex-service
man satisfied with any claims he
may have against the government.
Miss Mae Mclaughlin, Home Ser
vice secretary. office in the Harper
building, Audubon, will assist in fill
ing claims, without cost. If incon-
venient or impossible to call at Of
flee to file claim, call 252 Audubon,
Home Service telephone number,
and arrangements will be made to
file claim.
DR.. A. l.. Brooks has recently
been appointed United States Public
Health Examiner for Audubon coun-
ty. This is great help to the men
filing claims and to those who as
sist in the filing, and DR.. Brooks
acceptance as U. S. Examiner is ap-
preciated. What does it mean to
DR.. Brooks? Filling out reports
after the examination, to the "wee
small hours" Yes, that is neces-
sary, but it means more to him II
he can assist an ex-service man in
obtaining compensation that is de-
serving.

NEW YORK, Aug. 1S-Phil Glass man. manager of Lew, Tender, had long talk with Tex Rickard at Mad ison Square Garden recently over the prospect of sending his southpaw for a 12-round session with Johnny Dun dee at Jersey City on Labor Day. It is the intention of Rickard to stage big double bill on the same day that Johnny Wilson and Bryan Dow ney will start shooting in their re- turn match for the middleweight championship.
 Rickard also discussed the pros pect of a LeonardTendler match for his arena some time late in Septem- Der. It is not very likely that Leon ard will be ready to meet Tender so soon Glassman told Rickatf that Tendler' was ready to meet any man in his division and under the cir cumstances it is more than proba able that the Dundee-Tendler match is assured for the same date as the Downey- Wilson struggle The ad1nis- sion will range from $2 to $10.

American Import Tax
 On Films Protested

LONDON, Aug. 1S.-A letter pro testing against the proposed Ameri- can import tax upon motion picture films as 'prohibitive and detrimen- tai to the international interchange of ideas of life" appeared in a re- cent issue of the London Times signed by 16 British film producers who appended their signatures to blJe letter as members, of the Brit ish Producers Committee of the In co1pOrated Association of Kinema- tograph Manufacturers.
 The letter declared that if Brit ish manufacturers are to be entirely debarred from introducing scenes of English life to the people of Amer ica there can be no option but to prevent the practically free impor- tation of American films into this country"
 I he letter notes that the 30 per cent ad valorem duty is based upon the cost of production of similar work in the United States, asserting at the same time that the cost of the production is admittedly about i've times as heavy there as in Eng land. The writers say that about S5 per cent of the films shown on British screens are of American origin.

Death Recalls Waterloo Battle.

(, VANDALIA, Mo-, February, 25.-
Desire DeTienne, IS years old, who
has just died here, was one Of the
most picturesque characters Of this
section Of Missouri. He was a native
of Belgium, having been born at
Wavre, neal the battlefield Of Water
loo, coming to America in 1854. He
lived in st. Louis County until 1865,
when he located in this vicinity. His
language was that of the Walloons of
Southern Belgium, a mixture Of
French dialect and Dutch, quantity
picturesque and recalling the French
voyageur Of Gilbert Parker. De-
Themes father, who came owe in
1866, was a boy Of II at the time Of
the battle Of Waterloo, and witnessed
that famous epoch-making conflict,
hidden among the leaves and branches
Of trees overlooking the battlefield.
An old gun that the young patriot
held in his hands at the time was
brought to America and has long been
a guarded treasure Of the family.
