trend of common labor wages on high
way construction in various geograph-
ic divisions since 1915 presents an liz
teresting study of conditions during
the period. The price per hour which
in 1915 ranged from 12 cents to 26
cents, gradually rose to from 81 to 62
cents in 1920 and has now declined to
from Is to AZ cents. At the present
time the prices are as follows: Is
cents in the South Atlantic states, IS
cents i'll the states east of and border
ing the Ohio and Mississippi rivers
and including Alabama, "a cents in
the Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma and
Louisiana group, 26 cents in the states

from Kansas and Missouri to the
Canadian border, SO cents in the

Pacific states. Figures for the New
England and Middle Atlantic states

On the chart referred to the lines
showing the trend in the various di.
visions have the same general rise and
fall and cross each other in only few
cases, a particular exception being in
the states from Kansas and Missouri
north to the border, where the highest
rate of all the groups prevailed up to
1920, and which has since shown the
most marked decrease, dropping from
62 cents in 1920 to 20 cents in March.

Republican Administration Spends More

o. 8. REPRESENTATIVE Carl. w. RIDD1CK.
(MONTANA), MEMBER HOUSE COMMITTEE
ON AGRICULTURE

In November, 1918, the people elect
ed Republican Congress. The frs:
session of this newly elected Repul
hcan Congress began May Is, 19l!. /.
with 1t began practically all Federal
AID for relief and assistance Of ttos.
who served in the World War. All
elaborate program was formulate /
providing for hospital and medical all,
lor all disabled and diseased ex.service
men. The program included those
suffering from mental diseases as a
result OF their war experience; also
vocational training and rehabilitation: :.
also financial allotments for those en-
saged IN such training; also compensa-
tlon for men totally or partially dis.
abled, and for their dependents: and
tor the dependents of those who died
as result of injury or disease con.
tracted while in the service of their
country. 81
There was expended to July 1.
1922, for the purposes of carrying out
this program the sum of 81, ,435, ,S54,3S5.
In addition an appropriation of s423-
G3s,S42. has just been made by, the
Congress for the Veterans Bureau for
the coming fiscal year. This is great
er appropriation than made for any
other purpose except in payment of
the public debt.
Following the war the administra.
ton of relief for ex-service men was
divided among several bureaus and this
necessitated tremendous overhead ex-
pense, eating up disproportionate
amount of money appropriated for aid
OF World War veterans, and 1t
occasioned endless delay in hand
ling ex-service mems cases and
put them to unfair expense. To
remedy these evils the Republican
Congress passed measure, combin-
ing all agencies dealing with ex-serv.
Ice men under the Veterans Bureau.
Following the war, hundreds of thou
sands of veterans permitted their in
surance to lapse, largely because OF
the sltpshod manner in which their
claims were handled under the Dem
ocratic administration. At the re.
quest Of representatives of the ex-sery.
ice men the Republican Congress made
1t possible for all ex-service men
whose policies had lapsed to be rein
stated at any time prior to March 4.
1926.
Tha disqualification and medical
treatment of ex-service men was found
to be unsatisfactory and Congress
transferred 80 hospitals to use of the
Sioux County pioneer., 1922-09-28

Veterans Bureau. The number of beds
In these hospitals taken over by the
| Veterans Bureau is In excess Of 2S,-
600. ~
! There were many ex-service men
living in remote sections of the cOun.
! try who were not aware Of the bene-
fits they could receive and should be
receiving from the government under
the Veterans, Bureau. In order that
no worthy ex-service man entitled to
benefits of any kind might be neglect
ed, the Veterans Bureau conducted a
drive in which over 175,00O ex-service
men were interviewed and 100000 new
claims were fled and handled as a
result.
AS a result of this tremendous pro-
gram of Federal aid to ex-service men,
all of which has been put into effect
by the Republican Party and the
money for which has been appropr!-
ated by a Republican Congress, the
following summarization may be
given:
(1) Over 100000 ex-service men
have received hospital treatment; 3O,-
900 ex-service men are now receiving
treatment in hospitals; over 100000
ex-service men have been called for
examination in order to ascertain If
they should receive hospital or med
ical treatment.
| (2) Over 100000 ex-service men
have entered vocational training and
100000 more have been declared eligi-
BILE for vocational training
(3) Compensation for disabled ex-
service men or their dependents is
being paid out at rate in excess Of
s1,OOO,OOO in cash every day, includ.
ing Sundays.
az Over $4,000 medical examinations
are being made free every month in
order to ascertain the physical and
mental treatments needed by afflicted
ex-service men.
(5) Over 1000 new claims are being
handled every day by the Veterans
Bureau and all work in that bureau is
practically current and being conduct
ed at minimum loss of time and a
minimum expense both to the govern
ment and to the ex-seryice man con-
cerned.
(6) An insurance business for over
100000 ex-service men is being con-
! Quoted by the government, without
any cost of administration to ex-serv-
ice men, at premium rates far below
those private companies charge 70:
like policies.

LOWER CONSTRUCTION COSTS
Decreased Prices Are Indicated ia
Bids Submitted on Federal-Aid
Highways.

Confirmation Of the predicted lower
level prices for road construction this
year. is found in the reports on bid
prices Of 288 miles Of federal-aid roads
received by the bureau Of public roads
Of the United States Department Of
Agriculture.
The average cost per mile Of some
Of the types of roadway, including the
cost of grading and drainage, were:
78 miles of gravel at Sc, $50 q mile, 46
miles of concrete at $4,000 a mile,
AZ miles of bituminous macadam at
S25, 200 a mile, and % miles Of bitumin.
