indianapolis, Ind, Feb. 12.-That
1jority OF the people of the United
kntes are backing up ex-service men
y their support OF the Fordney bill,
khich provides five-fold compensa-
Ion plan for veterans Of the World
Var, Is the assertion OF Lemuel Boil
ee, national adjutant Of the Amen-
IN Legion, who said that he based
bis opinion on reports from North
Dakota, Oregon, Minnesota, Illinois
Ind many other states. Veterans pre-
Ter compensation other than cash,
Mr.. Bolles added.
The state legislature of North Da-
Eota, which paid its veterans s25 u
month compensation, the largest state
bonus, has passed resolution urging
the passage Of the Fordney bill and
the general assemblies OF Oregon and
Minnesota also voted for similar reso.
buttons, Mr. Boles said.
In spite OF the fact that thous-
ands OF Illinois ex-service men, who
are out Of work during the pres
ent low tide of industry, need ready
Dnney badly, only 54 per cent of
them favored a national cash bonus,
while 46 per cent preferred some
other form of compensation in a ple-
biscite In that state" said Mr.. Bolles.
"Fifteeh per cent chose paid-up insur-
ancc; l3 per cent, aid in buying u city
home; 10 per cent, assistance in OBJ
tanning an education or learning a
trade and eight per cent, farm or
rpclailn land settlement
Under normal conditions large
majority OF Illinois Legion members
would be far sighted enough to choose
some form OF recompense. other than
cash
