Service Men In Congress

Washington, ID. c., Feb. 10 How
many veterans of the war will be sure
to Congress at the November elections
is question upon which there is much
speculation in Congressional circles. A
canvass by the American Legion shows
the at present 81 members of the House
are ex-serviCe men, and two senator's,
Newberry michigan, and Elkins (W.
Virginia.. With the entire membership
of the House to be elected i'll Novem-
Der, it is generally conceded here that,
when votes are counted, it will be
found that the number OF eX-service
men in that body has been materially
increased. The outcome in the Senate,
where third of the seats are at stake,
is entirely probiematical. Twenty
states are represented by eX-ServlCe
men in Congress. New York leads with
four members, Massachusetts, and Ten
nessee following with three each. The

LEGION NEWS

Not Building Air Castles

Toledo, O., Feb. l6-The vision of
$360000 hidden in secret pocket of a
portmanteau failed to make Jim Beck
EFT, of this city, register any undue
emotion. He did not spill any coffee
in his haste to get action. If the
prisoner in the Spanish debtors jail
had known Jim Beckett was an eXMa-
rine, and an eX-Sergeant to boot, he
would probably have addressed his
mysterious message to some less hard
boiled person. Beckett recently showed
members of his American Legion post
a note from Madrid, Spain, addressed
to a deceased uncle. The writer, who
signed himself Or de S." and who eX-
planned that he was in Jail, purported
to be the owner of baggage held by the
Registrar Of Courts. He stated that
two checks, payable to bearer, totalling
S3600O0 were contained in secret
pocket of his portmanteau, and offered
to give the recipient of his Letter one
third share, or $l20,000 if he would
pay the Court costs Beckett is asked
to cable friend of the imprisoned man
for further information. This he has
done, and on the receipt of the reply
will turn over the papers to the author
tiles. Meantime the former sergeant
is not building any castles in Spain, A
recent despatch from Paris received
here warns against the recurrence OF
an "oId Spanish prison swindle,' and
lays blame on the connivance of cor
rupt Spanish police officials What
principally interests the imperturba5le

spirit of fairness as displayed for the
disabled veterans of the American Le-
gion.
Be it further resolved: That the De
partment of Vermont regrets to see the
unfair and unjust policy of a certain
few newspapers of this State, who have
shown a hostile attitude toward the
welfare of the financially disabled ex-
service men, evidenced by the publ
cation of unjust and unwarranted at
tacks upon the claims of the soldiers
for adjusted compensation, which un-
doubtedly have been inspired by poll
ticans who are allied with the large
business concerns who have claims now
pending against the government for
war contracts of questionable merit,
and who are willing to sacrifice the in
terests of the defenders of the nation
in order to advance the claims of the
business constituents they represent,
and be it further
Resolved; That the Legion has no
fear, whatsoever, that the fair-minded
and appreciative citizens of the State
will be led astray or influenced in the
least by the unfair and unjust )ropa-
ganda against the adjusted compansa-
ton bill now pending in Congress. The
American people have already reCog-
nized the merit and business of the
claims of eX-service men, and Congress
is now called upon to provide the ne
Cessary funds for an adjustment of the
soldiers compensation and cancel the
obligation to the soldiers who respond
ed to the call in defense of the nation
Whereas, certain legionnaires of Yer
mont have procured a newspaper for
the dissemination of Legion news in
this department; therefore be it
Resolved: That this appreciation of
the legionnaireS of this department be
extended to our unselhsh buddies who
have made it possible to have a dis
tinctly Legion paper for Vermont and

Resolved: That each post forward to
this Middlebury Register each week all
Legion news affecting this department
and recommend that each and every
post subscribe to this paper at once
and to advise all legionnaires of this
department that the Middlebury Reg
lister is the official spokesman OF The
American Legion.

and Auxiliary members for the valu-
able assistance Major Jackson rendered
to make this annual conference a great
success; and be it further

What Do The Soldiers Want?

indianapolis, Ind, Feb l6-What
percentage of ex-soldiers will choose
cash in the event compensation passes
Congress? That question is troubling
legislators at Washington. Results OF
referendum votes conducted by the
American Legion in widely separated
localities indicate that the choice of
the five provisions OF the bill would
largely depend on the varying geogra
phical and economic conditions exist
ing in the different sections of the
country. More than so per cent OF
5000 Pennsylvania veterans chose paid
up insurance in a recent poll. On the
other hand two-thirds OF the g, lO6 Iowa
ex-soldiers that voted chose to receive
cash. This fact has been attributed to
the hardshipS accrulng from agricul-
tural depression there. The referendum
was conducted by the Iowa Legion
naire, an official Legion publication, and
showed the state to be strong for COM
pensation, only two negative votes hav-
ing been cast. If Kansas balloting were
to be taken as a criterion, less than
one half of all ex-service men would
ask for ready cash. At Wichita 30
per cent of Legion members signifed
they wished cash, and at Atchison 30
per cent The latter post Favored
paid-up insurance, while Wichita cast
a majority for the home and farm aid
feature of the bill In preparing an
estimate for the House Ways and
Means committee fiscal officers OF the
Army, Navy, and Marine Corps work
ed on the basis that so per cent OF
army men and 70 per cent of navy men
would elect cash settlement. On this
division the cost OF compensation was
put at $2,5O00O0,OO0. Legion officials
took issue with the navy and marine
corps heads on the 70 per cent estimate.
