Nezperce Trading Co. Makes AS
signment.

The Nezperce Trading Co. to-
day made an assignment in fav-
or of its creditors. This action
was made necessary through the
peculations of Ernst Wienss,
who formerly owned the store
and used its name. to secure mon
ey for his own individual credit,
and the assignment followed a
conference with the creditors.
S. l.. Shoemaker will be con-
tinued in charge of the concern

statement places the assets at
$41 900 and the liabilities at $44.

Cleanup Squad Here Nov. 2e.

q. Roy Fleming, Ph. d., Adj
vance Agent Of the United States
Veterans Bureau, Cleanup
Squad, was in Nezperce, Thurs
day confering with representa-
tives Of cooperative organizations
being interested in ex-service
persons, and found most friend
ly attitude of mutual interest
looking forward to the coming OF
the cleanup squad here Novem-
Der 26, 1921.
In an interview, DR. Fleming
says the cleanup squad is now
typifying the progressive spirit
Of the u. S. Veterans Bureau
(the new consolidated agency OF
the Bureau of War Risk Insur-
ance, the Public Health Service,
and the Rehabilitation Division
of the Federal Board for Voca-
tional Education) especially in
communities of substantial pros
perity and permanent develop
ment, by expressing worthily
their hospitality and goodwill to
all ex-service persons presenting
claims they may have against the
government, being traceable to
the recent worlds war. 1t is
plainly manifesting not only its
unusual Accommodations and ex-
ceptional service, but also its per-
sonal interest in every long-pend-
ing claim requiring additional
evidence for final adjudication.
1t appeals to every citizen in
each community for earnest CO.
operation to carry into effect the
great humanitarian purpose cor
templated by the Sweet Bill. The
many serious and complex prob
lens are receiving striking
blows. The result is that it is be-
coming recognized by all agencies
cooperating, social as well as bus
mess, that the cleanup will be q
fact, as well as name.
The meeting at Nezperce will
be held at the Fraternal Hall i'll
Nezperce on the morning Of
November 26 from 8 to u O'Clock
and all that is required of any
legitimate claimant is simply to

case, and whatsoever his claim
it will be taken care of. Talk it
over with your post adjutant on
any of the boys and make it a
point to be on hand.
Meetings of the squad will also
be held at other points on the
prairie, and the dates of such Wis
itation may be had from the
