American Legion to inform Eassed
veterans whose ability to speak is be-
coming impaired, to report to the very
nearest bureau physician for examina-
ton.
The first successful surgical opera
ton upon a vetrean suffering from a
tumor on the vocal cords as a result
OF exposure to the gas has Just been
reported by the bureau. The former
soldier is Brig. Gen. Roy v. Hoffman.

These discoveries. the speakers agreed,
furnished some of the most interesting
data on the history of life thus far
secured in America.
A similar accumulation, representing

recently been investigated on the west
