AIDING WAR VETERANS
Government Is Spending More
Than 81, 900, 900 a Day.
Director of Veterans Bureau Seeks
Half-BIlllon to Divide Into Seven
Composite Branches Of Re-
lief Work.

WashingtOn.-MOre than $1.OO0,0OO
Q day, including Sunday, Is being ex-
pended by the United States govern
ment for the former service men and
their dependents, say government off,
cials.
The 1922 budget estimate of expen-
ditures to be made directly for the
benefit of the former warriors, calls
for $510,00OO00. This huge sum will
be divided, Col. c. r.. Forbes, director
of the United States veterans bureau,
said, into seven composite branches
Of soldier relief work.
For vocational training, the sum Of
$167, 100000; for medical and hospital
services, the sum of $64,6O0,000; for
payments on war risk term insurance,
the sum of $S1, 100000; for United
States government life insurance, the
sum Of $lG1,O 100000; for retroactive
government allowances on proved and
extant claims, the sum of S2,0OO.OOO
for salaries and expenses, that is ad-
mlnistration, the sum of $31, 100000.
These figures total $514,0OO,OOO from
which Colonel Forbes deducts the $5,-
100000 to be paid in United States
government life insurance claims, on
the ground that 1t is self-supporting
branch of the bureaus activities.

per cent in the school attendance in
the county in the last two years. The
increase has been at higher ratio
in Palatka and Crescent City than
in other districts. This is due to the
fact that automobile transportation
has tended to centralize the school
attendance. 1t has also made it pos
sible to economize in tutelage for the
reason that even though teachers are
paid more now they serve more pu-
pills.
The growth has been so rapid that
something must be done to meet the
situation. Expenditures are always
ahead of revenues in growing dis
tricts. 1t is this condition that first
made bond issues, or deferred pay
ments, necessary. This condition
prevails in this county today. Hous-
ing of the schools is made necessary
by the increase in attendance. To
meet this need the school board has
carefully worked out plan for is
suing time warrants, with provision
for their retirement at the proper
ratio and with payment Of interest.
They will not sell the warrants I'M
til they see their way clear to meet
the interest This is reasonable, be-
cause until they are able to do this
it will be impossible to sell them.
Taxes cannot be raised to meet these
payments unless the legislature at
its next session passes a school re-
lief bill. If it does mill or two
might be tackled on to protect these
securities.
So the proposition resolves itself
into one or two things, either an eX-
tension of school facilities or a badly
crippled system for the next four
years.

THE LEOPARD HAS
CHANGED HIS SPOTS.

During the latter days Of the Will
son Administration there was no
more bitter critic than George Har-
vey, the present American ambassa-
dor to the court of St. James. Mr.
Harvey lost no opportunity to impugn
the motives CT the sick man in the
White House, and nothing Mr. Wilson
could do met his approval. In the
view of HaUey's attitude it is inter-
esting to reN what he wrote of Mr..
Wilson in his book "The Power of Toll
erance," issued at a time when Har
vey enjoyed the friendship of the late
president:
"Great occasions find great men.
Here is one who, if he had lived in the
days of jefferson and Madison, would
have rivaled the one as a champion
of the people, and would have equal
ed the other in comprehension and
lucid expression of fundamental law.
"No other living personality so hap

tion to humanity; no other has shown
SO clearly how quickly the old truths

the love of perfect freedom.

said that it was. obviously an advan-

attendance was sufficient to take full
