GIVES STATE FUND
$4,000 INCREASE
American Legion Will Have the
Handling Of Appropriation

Hartford, Conn, Feb 25.-Notwith-
standing severe criticism of the way
the American Legion is administer
ing state relief funds to former serv-
ice men, the state board of control to-
day voted $4,000 to the legion with
which 10 carry on relief work.
Butterwortll at Meeting
Frank s. ButterWorth, treasurer
of the Connecticut department of the
American Legion, and representatives
of the legion from Hartford, Bristol
and Bridgeport appeared before the
board and gave an exhaustive account
of the manner in which the relief
funds provided by the state are being
distributed to needy former service
men. Searching questions were asked
by members of the board and in each
instance a complete and detailed ex-
PLANTATION of the point raised was
made.
Gov. Lake Speaks.
Governor Lake opened the meeting
by stating that considerable hostile
criticism of the American Legion has
reached the board of control regard
ing the way in which soldier funds
are being distributed.
I'VE have not considered it part
of the duty of the board of control
to keep-a check on this work so far
as individual cases are considered. But
now the figures have increased to
such an extent that we feel that some
greater measure of care should be
exercised" said the governor, and
continued: THE reports which have
reached us are improved and unsub-
stantiated and we do not claim
knowledge of them.
No Charges to Make.
1--WE have no charges to make. On
the contrary, we have q very friend
ly feeling toward the Legion and it's
work. The desire of this board is
that no man shall be deprived of help
because some men have got it when
they did not need it.
The figures now reported show
SIS, 100000 will be needed to carry
on the work. The expenditures are
now running around $4,000 a month.
The board simply wants to prevent
any of this money from going to un-
desirable cases"
ButtcrWOrth'S Request Granted.
Following this the representatives
of the legion presented the case for
the eX-service men so vigorously that
the $4,000 request of Mr.. Butter
worth was granted. 1t is probable
that the legion will ask the general
assembly for a special appropriation
for relief work as the funds available
will not last until thG middle of May,
when interest on the $2,5O0,OO0 fund
falls due.
