Legion Urges Haste in
Building of Hospitals
Situation in Such Acute Stage
Commander Deegan Will
Anpeal to Officials

According to an announcement yes
terday at state headquarters of the
American Legion the situation with re-
gard to hospitals has become so acute
that arrangements have been made for
Commander Deegan to visit number
Of officials in Washington to-day.
The situation in the veterans bu-
reau is such that resolutions are pour
ing into state headquarters regarding
claims which have remained unsettled.
This can be attributed in part to the
moving Of the bureau from its office in
West Fortythird Street to the Grand
Central Palace. This move was pro-
tested by the state Legion. Com
mander Deegan at that time told the
investigating committee from Wash
ington the results of these changes
would cause considerable delay in OBJ
tanning files and keeping the disabled
veterans continually going back and
forth to the bureau for many weeks.
"Unless the government sincerely
takes up the matter of hospitals" said
Commander Deegan, mo new institu-
tions will be available until the end of
1923, because it will be impossible to
build in the Adirondacks or Catskill
regions after November L. With tuber-
cular patients increasing at the rate of
one hundred day in this district, the
same process which has been in vogue,
the farming out of soldiers, will he
continued in order"

Veterans Protest
Ruling Against
Placement Training
Men Taking Voca-
tional Courses Resent De-
cision Rehabilitation Is
Completed at Institutions

Former service men taking voca-
tional training at New York University
Columbia University, Pratt Institute
and Pace Institute, through empowered
committees representing Veteran Bu-
reau Trainees from District 2, which
includes New York, New JERSEY and
Connecticut, recently adopted this
resolution:
Whereas, The U. S. Veterans Bu-
reau has recently ruled to consider all
Veterans Bureau Trainees, at institu
tions in District No. 2, as rehabilitate
upon completion Of Institutional train
ing, and
mittees here assembled, feel that it is
absolutely necessary that We be given
minimum Of six months placement
training upon completion of institu-
tional training, in order to be able to
successfully compete with able bodied
men already in the fields for which
we are being trained, and
Whereas, We have the opinion OF
experts that such placement training
is necessary and required before we
can secure employment at living wage
as many of our men have been refused
employment because of their disabili-
'AeS oHu AaCh ol pTaCClcdl training
and
Whereas. 1t was the sole purpose
of Congress, in enacting the Sweet
BILL to fully rehabilitate US, that we
may be enabled to properly support
ourselves and dependents, and be it
"Resolved, That we the empowered
committees, representing approximately
1000 trainees, at the institutions
named herein, do vigorously protest
against the ruling of the United States
Veterans Bureau, and call upon the
proper officials to reconsider it-and
in voicing our protest we feel that we
are expressing the sentiment of all
trainees affected by this ruling. Be
it further
Resolved, That copy Of this reso.
luton be forwarded to the President
of the United States, the United States
Senators and Representative in Con.
gress from District No. q; the officials
of the United States Veterans Bureau;
the American Legion, the Disabled
American Veterans of the World Wa,
and to the Veterans of Foreign Wars
for their immediate attention and
action, and be it further
Resolved. That all possible publicity
be given this matter"

Volunteers Most Wounde
Says Official of Legion
Hearing on Retirement Bill Dis
closes Their Casualties Were
20 Times Those of Regulars

WASHINGTON, July s. Nearly
twenty times as many volunteer Off
GERS were disabled in the World War
as regular army officers, it was brought
out in the first public hearing on the
Bursum bill, which would provide re-
tirement with two-thirds pay for dis
abled National Guard and emergency
officers, upon the same basis as now
are 895 volunteers officers who were
more than 80 per cent disabled through
battle wounds received in the war, ac-
cording to John Thomas Taylor, vice
chairman Of the national legislative
committee of the American Legion, who
opened the hearing before the Military
Affairs Committee of the House.
Of the 855 officers of the regular
army retired for disability since the
war, only fifty-four suffered wounds in
battle, and this latter number included
provisional officers from civil life, Mr..
Taylor pointed out. He explained that
the bill had been passed by the Sem
ate, and only awaited similar action by
the House to become law. Disabled
temporary officers of the Marine Corps
and the navy have received the benefits
of retirement, and to deny this to tenn
porary army officers Disseminated
against them, he said.
D. John Markey, chairman of the Le-
gion's military affairs committee, told
of the widespread resentment among
former soldiers, regardless of rank, be-
cause of the discrimination in favor
of regular army officers in the matter
of retirement. A continuance of such
action will certainly injure the mill
tary policy of the country, he said.
