appropriations for a period of years
are appreciably increased.
Analyses Appropriations.
Analysing the appropriation for
disabled veterans one finds $780,
100000 for salaries and admins
trative expense. Only about six
millions of this lis spent in Wash
ington and about 100000 in the
fourteen regional offices where the
government tries to keep in closer
touch with the veterans by decen-
tralized scheme rather than by a
national headquarters.
More than $3.50, 100000 is re-
CURED this year to pay compen-
sation to the families of those who
lost their lives and to those who
were disabled. About ST. 200, 900 is
being spent for hospitals and med
ical and surgical aid is still beng ex-
tended to victims of the war. This
item may diminish somewhat in the
next five years. Vocational educa-
ton and training is costing about
$3.50, 600 900 a year. These are the
principal items.
1t was thought at first that the
aid to the disabled would be cut
down three years after the war but
while the government spent $780,
900, 900 in the fiscal year 1921 for
this purpose. the amounts needed
for 1922 and 1928 average $780,
100000 On top of all this SOL
der bonus is declared by govern
ment officials to be an unwarrant-
ed strain with more disadvantages
in the long run to the individual
who receives the bonus than adj
vantages.

Sheriff Bob's' Picture to Hang
in Paris With Whistler's
Mother

Robert w. Chanler. noted New York
artist. member OF an old family of the
city formerly the picturesque sheriff
of Duchess county. where he is sti.l
referred to as Sheriff Bob" big. blonde
and good natured. had the thrill of mis-
life yesterday when he was informed
by cable that the Luxemborg Museum
of Paris has purchased his decorative
painting entitled "Giraffes. The price
paid was not made public.
Mr.. -Chanler is the first American to
receive this honor since Whistler and
his painting is to be placed in the same
gallery where Whistler's Mother" now
hangs According TO custom it will later
be transferred to the Louvre.
M. Bendite, the director of the Lu-am-
bourg, is said TO be much pleased over
the puTchase and thinks that the museum
is to be congratulated upon it's latest
aquisition. This opinion is shared by
the French art critics, who pronounce
"Graffes" 10 be one of the most decor
ative works of art of the century. The
honor accorded to Mr.. Chanler is i'm
pressive from the fact that this decora-
tion, measuring sixteen feet square, will
be a most conspicuous canvas in the
Luxembourg.
"Giraffes" was painted by Mr.. Chan
Ter in Paris in 1905 at the conclusion OF
his student days. but was not exhibited
in Europe until 1920. At that time the
city OF Venice negotiated for it's pur-
chase, but Mr.. Chanler preferred that
it go to Paris, where 1t was painted. II
1t should be wanted there. At later
date the Brooklyn museum negotiated
for the painting without success. AT
present it is on exhibition at Rochester
n. Y, where word has been sent to
crate the picture at once and send 1t &c

unexpected and said Mr.. Chanler was
gen timely surprised.
Instead of making II a merely personal
victory. Mr.. Chanler generously at
tributes the success Of this painting to
the influence Of Gothic tapestry and
music, and says that Bach and Gluck
were his Inspiration.
A glance around the studio and
gallery which Mr.. Chanler has madeaby
cutting through into two adjoining
houses gives one the thrill Of having
stepped into a land where miracles still
happen. On bedsteads. walls and hang
ings there is evidence OF his industry
and art, while his screens. for which he
Is probably the most widely known, seem
everywhere In their glitter and splendor.
In an upstairs room hangs a large red
and gold decoration the central figure
OF which Is peacock. Mr.. Narodny re.
ferred to this as Mr.. Chanler's initial
attempt as decorator and gave the
date of It's creation as 1900.
