FOR DISABLED VETERANS
In Address Last Night Before

Alexandria. Va.

Washington. ID. e.. April 2l!-one of
the speakers at mass meeting of the
American Legion. held last night in
the Chamber Of Commerce auditorium
AT Alexandria Va, was Col. Thomas w.
Miller Alien Property Custodian. Col.
Miller is a member of the national exec
utive committee of the American
Legion. and also a member of the
special committee appointed by the
President to inquire into the conditions
surrounding the disqualification com
pensation and rehabilitation of disabled
ex-service men and women.
col. Miller said in part:
president Harding demonstrated in
a very forcible and practical manner
that the wounded and disabled eX-ser-
vice men of the country are to receive
a Just and merited consideration at the
hands Of this administration. 1t should
not be required of the wounded and dis
abied saviours of this country to knock
at the doors of Congress for what the
country promised them when they
went into service and laid their all
upon the altar Of their country.
There has been crying need for
someone in authority to take the in

habilitation Section Of the Federal No-
cational Training Board all of which,
under the laws passed by Congress. had
the Jurisdiction and care of our dis
abled men. To be sure. the American
Legion and other soldier organizations
during the past two years. have fought
through their representatives at Wash
ington for thousands Of cases OF disabled
men or dependents. but the people did
not intend that the wounded men OF de-
pendents of those fallen should be re-
ouired TO fight the government for what
they SO richly deserve.
One Of the first moves that President
Harding made was TO call a volunteer

During the war years the President
often came unannouncai TO the navy de-
partment. TO consult suggest and, l
think. frequently with the desire To en-
courage and stimulate. Thin latter serV-
ice was invaluable TO us. When he
could not come because of pressure of

Admiral Sims. together with some
other Americans. were inclined 10 agree
with the allies that this plan was the
one we should adopt.
But not so the President. He dismissed
the proposal as soon as he heard Of it
Gen. Pershing was equally emphatic in
repudiating il. If Gen. Pershing had rec
commended il. believe President Wilson
would have been tempted most strongly
TO recall him. The president believed
America could raise and train an expe-
ditionar. force big enough and quickly
enough 70 take its equal place in the
field with the veteran armies and do its
fun share TO bring victory He had
faith in American capacity, and he
knew that Americans would never fight
so well under alien leadership as they
would under the command of their own
officers
But this determination on the presi-
dents part to keep the American forces
independent neither prevented the use of
American troops in the brigades of
British and French armies during the
days while our strength was assembling,
nor the strong urging OF America 70 give
the independent armies of the allied and
associated powers the unified command
which was essential TO their effective
cooperation and coordination.
