BergdolL Dead or Alive,

Publishing the list of slackers from
military service during the war may
accomplish something. At least it
will be satisfying to the men who
served honorably and heroically while
sheir fellowmen were hiding in the
swamps, or worse, behind mountains
of kale. There are jntimations that
this will be done, but all this can be
taken with a grain of salt until the
presses are rolling over the names.
Strenuous efforts will be made to pre-
vent the pursuance of such plan.
This is to be expected.
The government, rather than deal
collectively with the tens of thousands
of men who wilfully avoided the SER
vice, made an example of Grover
Cleveland Bergdoll. There can no
denial of this fact. 1t is true on its
face value. Not that Bergdoll did not
deserve to be made an example of.
because he is contemplate piece OF
humanity as ever breathcd free Am
erican air, but he was pushed to the
centre of the stage while others were
permitted to hide behind the screens.
perhaps to satisfy the public cry for
Justice, and his escape naturally
brought forth volumes of righteous
protests.
Now, since the question of return
ing him from Germany has been
brought up, the officials in Washing
ton are discussing plans in the most
serious tones. They are holding back
for Investigations to be completed.
The Louisville Courier-Journal dis
cusses the matter very frankly:
"How long is it going to be before
we show this fellow he can't pull that
stuff in any country?" (This propmt-
ed by Bergdoll's boast to his friends
in Germany when the two Americans
who attempted to kidnap him were
sentenced. eve will show these guys
they can't pull that stuff in this coun-
try" he said.) owe know where he
is-we have known it for months;
why don't we get him? Even the
lawyers for the defense in the case
last week were employed, not by the
United States, but by the American
Legion.
"'We are going to get Bergdoll
if it is possible to get him. says Sec
retary Weeks. In this instance there
should be no IF in the secretary's
lexicon. We can get Bergdoll and
we should get him without any IFS
or BUTTS. 1t is not time when any
red tape should be allowed to obstruct
Us. We are at war with Germany;
we have an army in Germany; this
Infamous and defiant renegade is in
Germany. Secretary Weeks should
take IF out of his vocabulary and put
GO in its place. Failing to get Berg
doll otherwise, we should go get him,
deed or alive"
The whole country is crying, "Get
Bergdoll!" So why not get him? Who
cares whether dead or alive? 1t is
to smile to even express preference!

Aid for Disabled Service Men,.

The American Legion is again show
ing itself in the right light. 1t is
largely responsible for the general
movement to better conditions for the
wounded, sick and disabled ex-service
men of America. The legion through
the thousands of posts in the United
States has hunted out thousands o.
cases of men who have not been able
to have their claims heard; others
whose claims have been presented to
the various bureaus in Washington
but who did not receive any satisfac-
ton until the legion got behind the
matter; still other veterans who were
entitled to the medical treatment but
did not know how to 60 about getting
it. These cases haze been taken up and
adjusted by the legion. Many men
who have worried for months over
their plight have been looked after and
given that which they had right to
expect from the government-namely,
ueiust consideration.
President Harding's special commits
sion has recommended that all agen-
cies at work for the good Of disabled
raen be placed under one head. This
has been advocated by the legion for
long time. Col. Galbraith, national
commander, is one of the Presidents
commission and no doubt had a great
deal to do with framing the recommen-
dations presented to the chief execu-
We. Charles G. Dawes, the chairman,
an overseas veteran and fully ap-
,eciates the deplorabe conditions
which have existed for some time. Mr.
Dawes was on Gen. Pershing's staff
and more recently caused a sensa-
ton by his vigorous denunciation OF
the men of "big words and little
deeds" who stayed on Capitol Hill and
fought the administration while men
who are now i'll and need assistance
were battling night and day to pre-
sere the honor of the United States.
Gen. Dawes, when made chairman of
the special commission, went after the
matter in a way which was gratifying
to the fighting man. His first ruling
was that the commission was not H.
terested in petty details but was
n asitally interested in doing something
Nor the disabled men. The commits
sion did not linger over the hearings.

Death of A. V. Wiswell

Adna V. Wiswell, highly respected
citizen of Il is town, passed away last Sum-
day morning after an illness With heart
trouble six months. His death came
somewhat sudden, although not unexpect-
ed as it was generally believed that he
could not recover from his serious illness.
He sat up a few minutes that morning, but
few hours later he peacefully passed
away.
A. V. Wiswell was born in this tom
April 4, 1s42, the only son of Ora and
Fannie Wiswell. He received his eds
cation in the public scho >ls and at Eas,
mans Business College. In 1868 he mar
ried Emma Keeler and to this union was
born an only son, Leon K. who died in
1897, few years after his graduation
from the U. V. M. Mr.. Wiswell was for
four years in trade at Cady's Falls, then
returning to this town, which has ever
since been his home. He worked at the
printing business for short time, but for
several years he engaged in the jewelry
and stationery business. Later he car
carried on cabinet shop and also de-
voted some time to green house work
and poultry business, giving attention
also to watch and clock repairing.
He filled various town offices, serving
several years as a justice of the peace and
also was county treasurer, position he
held at the time of his death. In all his
business transactions he was square and
upright and was well worthy of the So
briquet given him Honest Adna." Good
hearted, kindly disposed to everybody he
had many friends and as townsman he
always identified himself with what he be-
lieved was right. A good man has gone
from among us.
The funeral was held from his late home
this afternoon, Rev. Mr.. Mercer .oficiat-
ing. There was large attendance and
many floral tributes. Burial was in the
tamilv pot in the village cemetery.
