The following remarkable endorse
ment of Tanlac was given recently by
Mrs. Alice Gresham Dodd, at the
Gresham Memorial Home. Gavin Park,
Evansville, Ind, which home was pre-
sented to her by the patriotic people
of Indiana, as evidence of their appre-
citation Of the services rendered to his
| country by her son, Corporal James
B. Gresham, the first American soldier
killed In France. Expressions of SYM
patty were received by Mrs. Dodd
from all parts of the United States,
and the newspapers of the country
carried the story Of the first war
mother"
The shock of her sons death re-
suited In the serious breakdown Of
Mrs. Dodd's health, but everyone will
learn with interest and pleasure that
she is now in splendid health again.
When seen at her home recently she
made the following statement, giving
the entire credit for her recovery to
the well-known medicine, Tanlac.
after my dear boys death / had
q general breakdown In health" said
Mrs. Dodd. AT first it was just in
digestion. My food used to upset me
and I had to diet myself very care
fully. which wasn't much hardship,
as l lost all desire to eat. Then l had
an attack Of rheumatism, with severe
pains In my shoulders, back and arms.
Sometimes I used to suffer a great
deal, and my joints would get all
swollen up and stiff. I was able to do
very little about the houses and at
times couldn't even cook q meal. I
got very W and restless, and at
night would lay awake for hours, and
lost many a nights sleep as a conse
quence.
"A friend of mine had received a
great deal of help from Tanlac, and
1t was she who advised me to try 1t.
l am so glad I did FIR 1t proved the
best medicine / have ever taken. 1t
soon gave me a good appetite and
seemed to settle my stomach so that
I was no longer troubled with indiges-
ton. I don't know what 1t is to have
rheumatic pains INV, the swelling and
stiffness has all rome out Of my
Joints and I am able to do the work
of the house with the greatest ease.
Ny nerves are nov steady and strong.
/ sleep fine at night, and I feel better
in health than eve before In my life.
l shall always be grateful for what
Tanlac has done for me, and shall
recommend 1t every chance I get"

The Legion aims to present to the

the officials of the government. The
Legion's memorial was carried to the
President at the White House by John
Thomas Taylor, vice chairman of the
Legion National Legislative commit
tee. National Commander f. w. Gal
braith, Dr., gave it to Senator Harding
at Marion, where he had a long and
important conference on the disabled
situation with the next President.
The Legion denounces the present
method of caring for the disabled as
a failure which only can be rem
edied by the entire reconstruction of
the federal machinery dealing with
the problem.
The functions of the three agencies,
which deal with the problems of the
disabled, the bureau of war risk in
mrance the federal board for voca-
.ional education, and the United
States public health service, must Ne
co-ordinated, their machinery decen-
tralized and all three placed under
common CONTROL" the memorial states.
As an equally essential remedy for
existing conditions. the memorial
urges the immediate appropriation for
the use of the unified organization
of a sum ample to build or rent a
sufficient number of hospitals to tale
care of the $4,000 ex%-service men who
are unable to receive treatment at
present because of lack of beds and
shelter.
The failure of the government to
afford justice to the sick and wounded
is attributed by the Legion
to IAN astonishing state of divided re-
sponsibility and wasted effort among
the government agencies with which
the problem rests"

United States has been more liberal
than any other nation In its provisions
for the disabled soldiers, but that it has
failed In large measure to make these
provisions available in spite of the
benefit of the experience Of other
nations In the recent var and the ex-
p~erience of this nation In previous
wars.
"In the rehabilitation of a disabled
nuan there are three needs-medical
treatment. vocational training and
financial support" the memorial
states. 1.-THE government has recog-
nized the three needs. but oyerlooks
the fact that they are the siD,ultane-
ous needs of n man, not Of three
different men or of n man at three
different times. 1t makes three prob
lens out OF what really is one problem.
Continuing this faulty conception,
II has given the problem over TO three
agencies. All by force of circumstan-
ces, are exercising functions they were
not intended to exercise. This pre-
sents an amazing spectacle of admin
strative chaos, duplication. wasted en-
.rgy and conflict. which Is the key
to the present condition.
1.-THE result is the suffering of the
disabled veterans. Thousands are
waiting and have waited for months
for compensation for their injuries.
