OF DELAYNRELIEF
OFN-SERVlCE men
Secretary Mellon Tells of
Plans to Utilize Sol
diers' Homes.

Not only Congress, but the ,ex-
ecutive branch Of the government,
is proving extremely dilatory in
meeting the demands of proper care
and relief OF former service men.
according to officials Of the Ameri-
can Legion.
With the Sweet bill to create a
veterans bureau still awaiting ac-
tion by Senator Smoot's subcommit-
tee, ii became known Thursday
that Secretary Of the Treasury Mel
lon has not yet begun construc-
tion of the new hospitals for which
the last Congress appropriated
SIS. 900.
The appropriation was made
available March last. but in the
four months that have elapsed on:y
twelve projects. costing $500 900.
have been approved, and the funds
allotted. Secretary Mellon is being
advised on the expenditure of this
appropriation by a committee con-
sisting Of DIR. William c. White. of
Pittsburgh, chairman; DR.. Frank
Billings, of Chicago; DR.. John q.
Bowman, of Pittsburgh. and DIR.
George II. Kirby, of New York.
Approves Five Projects.
Mr.. Mellon announced Thursday
his approval of the allotment OF
| $500, 900 to the board OF managers
Of the national homes for disa bled
volunteer soldiers to be expended
in the development and expansion
of five existing soldiers homes into
hospitals for the treatment OF
world war veterans. The approves
projects are:
Milwaukee (wisconsin) Soldiers
tuberculosis patients.
Dayton (Ohio) Soldiers Home
Erection Of new hospital for 25G
tuberculosis patients.
Leavenworth (kansssl Soldiers
Home-New hospital for 200 Iuber.
culosis patients.
Battle Mountain Sanatorium. Hot
Springs, S. Dak.-New hospital fol
40 tuberculosis patients.
Marion National Sanatorium, Mar.
ion. lnd.-Additional building fol
fifty euro-psychiatric patients who
are also suffering from tuberculosis
The Secretary said these project:
would be completed by January l
next. Previously he has approved
seven projects costing s3.OOO.O00
The S1S,6o0.000 appropriated will
provide about $500 addi -ional beds
a number far short OF requirements
as was demonstrated in Congress!
when the fund was voted.
Explaining the decision to utiliz,
the soldiers homes, Mr. Mellon said
We have taken into considera
ton the fact that tuberculosis anC
mental nervous cases require lonl
care for cure and rehabilitation Aft
er looking over the various hospi
tai groupings, such as the Pub. 1,
Health Service hospitals, the arm,
and navy hospitals and others, W,
have decided that the existing ma
tiopal soldiers homes afford tn,
best facilities for the treatment o
long illnesses The other institu
tions will be utilized TO
cases requiring shorter periods O
treatment.
1T is now apparent that we will
be able to establish eighteen q
nineteen large hospital projects OH
OF the sls.6oo.ooo provided by Con
gress for disqualification of the vet
Grams Through the policy of en-
iarging existing Institutions, as, op
posed to new and original construc
ton. we probably will be able I,
provide $500 additional beds. wbicl
is at least 1.soo more than was an
tlcipated when the legislation wa
adopted"
