ing Day, y,'2,679 Chapters in all parts Of
the country are engaged. This is $50
more than were working for ex-service
men last year when approximately
$1O,OOO,O0O was expended by the Ma
tional Organization and the Chapters
working together in harmonious unity.
For the current fiscal year National
Headquarters appropriated $3,030,-
692.9O, an increase of 1865, ,560.S4 over
the amount spent for the work among
ex-service men in the year ended June
80 last. Since 1t is estimated that the
Chapters will expend close to $7,000,-
900 from their own funds, the grand
toral of Red Cross expenditures for
this single work is expected again to
reach the $10,000,000 mark by June 80,
1923.
Hospital and District Office Work
During the fiscal year total of over
1000 persons, paid and volunteer, has
been engaged in Red Cross duty in
hospitals or district offices of the o. S.
Veterans Bureau. An average of 5000
new cases requires definite and par
ticular attention each month. The de-
mand for Chapter-made articles for
hospital patients is constant.
During last year Service Claims and
Information Service at National Head
quarters handled 37,200 compensation
end insurance claims, 24,560 allotment
ana allowance cases, and 9,700 miscel-
laneous claims. Since February, 1919,
it has disposed of 64,174 allotment
checks payable to veterans which the
Post Office Department reported unde-
liverable.
The Chapter is the unit of the Red
Cross organization which is accessible
to every disabled veteran or his fam
ily. Between July /, 1921, and June 30,
1929, the Chapters had reported 1866
O79 Instances of service to ex-service
men and their dependents, at cost
estimated from reports now at hand of
more than S5,340,00O.
The basis of this far-reaching work
Of the Red Cross is the individual
needs of the disabled veteran to the
end that he may obtain his rights un-
der the law, that his especial wants
may be Immediately supplied, that his
own and his family's situation may be
rendered happy and cheerful, and that
their outlook for the future may
visualize incentives for independent
and fruitful effort.

When on November II the world
ha1ts to observe the fourth anniver-
sary of Armistice Day, and the Ameri.
can Red Cross inaugurates its Annual
Roll Call for the enrolment Of the
1923 membership, the people Of the,
United States may well pause to think
of the unparalleled contribution to the.
cause O. eace made by our Army and
Navy In the World War. The glory Of
it Is common tradition; but the
wounds Of war remain. They are not
healed in day, in year, nor in fotr,
years. And on Armistice Day there
will be under treatment in Government
hospitals over $4,000 ex-service men,
broken physically by wounds, expo.
sure, nervous strain and exhaustion
incident to their service in the war.
The Government without stint is un-.
dertalling to furnish these disabled
men with the compensation and med
ical care to which they are entitled,
yet their especial care is duty Of the
Red Cross. Why? Because the Gov.
ernment cannot handle the cases Of
ex-service men Individually; it must
handle these men in bulk under a
standardized policy. The Government
has neither the authority, the funds
or the equipment for working out the
problem Of the individual man. There
is where the American Red Cross

American Red Cross extends to the

business could be wound up.
Under the law Tolbert's original
nomination died with the expiration
of the last session of Congress, and
in the ordinary course, would have
to be resubmitted to the senate. 1t is
taken for granted that President
Harding will send Tolbert's nomina-
tion t the senate in the next term
of congress. If the senate again fails
to reject the appointment Tolbert
will automatically serve e-luntil the
end of the session, meantime draw
ing his salary and exercising all the
powers and authority of his office.
Should the senate fail to take any
action the nomination will die, but
President Harding may continue him
in Office by another recess appoint
ment.
President Hardirg's action in re-
fusing to give the judiciary commit
tee an opportunity to report on the
charges against Tolbert and in has
tening to put him en- the payroll has
promoted a good deal of comment in
political circles. Ii is Believed that
this attempt of the President to vim
dicate a Republican National Com
mitteeman and give him a berth at
the same time, while grave accusa-
tions against him were still without
criticism when the senate shall have
reconvened.
Tolbert is the oldest and one of
the most influential members of the
Republican National Committee, al
though the representative of a
Southern state where Republicans
are small minority. He has been for
years conspicuous figure in Repub-
lican national conventions, in which
he usually controlled a considerable
number of negro Republican dele
gates.-Greenville News.

Joe w. Tolbert Takes Office
as u. S. Marshal.

Joseph W.. Tolbert, Republican
National Committeeman for South
Carolina, yesterday afternoon at
$3.50 o'clock, took oath of Office as
United States marshal for the Wes-
tern District of South Carolina and
Immediately took charge of the Of
|fice.. Mr.. Tolbert was recently ap-
pointed to the Office by President
Warren C. Harding during a recess
of Congress and will hold the office
at least until The next session Of the
u. S. senate.
C. j. Lyon, Jr., who was a deputy
under his father, rendered his resig-
nation yesterday, Immediately after
Mr.. Tolbert had taken the oath of
Office. Young Mr.. Lyon has, for
some time, held the position of depu-
ty marshal under his father.
The appointment by the President
was read yesterday afternoon in the
federal court room and then the oath
of office. After Mr.. Tolbert had TAX
en- the oath Judge Watkins made a
brief talk introducing him into the
"Fanily of the Federal Court of the
Fourth District of South Carolina. I"
Judge Watkins stated that family
spirit had always featured the court
and that now taat he was member
of that family the court expectss his
hearty cooperation. Judge Watkins
paid a tribute. to Former Marshal
Lyon, in stating that during his term
fo Office the cooperation from that
department with the court had been
perfect in every detail.
In his talk to Mr.. Tolbert Judge
Watkins emphasized the fact that the
business of the court here was an
nually increasing and now more than
ever was cooperation with the mar
shal's office necessary. The district
judge added 1--WE have labored in
the past to increase the dignity of
this court and it has been, and is,
our aim to make it court where ev-
cry man may find refuge and JUS
tice."
"Well, Pm really here" said Mr..
Tolbert yesterday, "and intend to
do all in my power to make the 4th
district good marshall. Eventually
all of the old force will go. One has
already said that he intended resign
ing and I believe two more expect
to leave shortly. There are now four

In other words, Senator Dial
would have real cotton distinguished
from fictitious cotton on the ex-
changes. He takes the position that
cotton should be no more of gamb-
ling dice than coal, iron, steel and
wool, which are not traded in. To the
objection offered that his law would
injure the exchanges he replies that
eff the exchanges can not exist un-
der this kind of law, they can retire"
Senator Dial is earnest and cour-
ageous in pressing his bill against
the bitterest kind of opposition. Wes-
tern senators who have recently
freed grain from depressing ex-
change gambling are supporting him
better than are Southern senator's.
He believes that if he had the CO.
operation of other Southern senator's
he would encounter little difficulty
in having the statute enacted. He
tells his colleagues that if the law is
not perfect he will readily withdraw
it. in favor of better one which
they shall propose.
The News believes the people of
South Carolina can be of valuable
assistance to Senator Dial in the
work he is trying to do for Southern
cotton farmers by reading the pro-
posed statute thoroughly, thinking
about it, and, if they consider it a
good measure, lending their influence
and enthusiasm in getting it passed,
There is no question that gambling
in fictitious cotton has a deleterious
effect upon the real commodity. Sen
ator Dial appears to be on the right
track to correct the evil. The News
hopes every reader of this paper will
secure from Senator Dial a copy Of
the bill and read it car refully. 1t took
exactly 80 years to ges the last cot
ton exchange reform through con-
gress. It will take that long to effect
the reform proposed by Senator Dial
unless the people exhibit enough in
terest to inform themselves of the
contents of the bill.-Greenville
