HARDING'S PHYSICIAN ' ACCUSED BY SPRAGUE General Sawyer Charged With Holding Up Care of
 Wounded Veterans

Chicago, July 25 (By the Associated Press)-Col. A. A. Sprague chairman of the American Legion's National Re- mobilization committe, in letter to Brig. General Charles F.. Sawyer, per- sonal physician to President Harding and chief co-ordinator of the federal board of hospitalization made public today, charges that General Sawyer is standing in the way of proper care for wounded and shell shocked veter- ans and holding up hospital plans voted by congress.
 Appealing to General Sawyer to stand aside" Col. Sprague said more than 4,504 mental cases still are con- fined in contract institutions and that of the remaining 4.715 victims of men, tai disorders only $500 are in gov- ernment institutions devoted entirely to their care.
 Quoting from letter received from General Sawyer, in which the chief CO., ordinator said T am convinced that the peak of hospitalization has been passed" and that the government had sufficient beds except in two districts. Col, sprague replied:
 Tt Is almos unbelievable that, hav- ing satisfied congress that these hos pitals were needed and that they should be built to capacity. that we now have to reply to your statement that thy are unnecessary.
 "The reply of the American Legion and every real American is: Give these men the best care that medical scince can provide in government in stitutions maintained at the highest standard of equipment and admins tration-and near to their own homes so that it rehabilated they can be returned to civil life with greater ease, and If doomed to hospitaization, they can be near those whom they love best.
 -Four years have already passed and the veteran has not yet been provided for. A belated program Is now being held up and changed. It is being changed to meet your ap- proval.
 T appeal to you, sir, to stand aside and allow this program of the veter- ans bureau go Into effect and at once"

complainers had bought six copies Of

And on this same Christmas trip an

And another person had patted her

children and had said: s1r-....

Fires Spotted by Forest Air Patrol.
The value of airplane forest patrol
was forcibly demonstrated recently
near Roseburg, Ore. One Of the state
foresters in that city had re- eived re-
ports from the lookouts in his territory
that there were no fires to be SEEN It
happened that just at that particular
time he decided to accompany one of
the army air service pilots engaged in
patrolling the Oregon forests. He had
not proceeded very far on his aerial
Journey before he realized that the re-
ports he had received from his look
outs were not as reliable as he was
led to believe. To his great consterna-
ton he discovered that he had no less
than II real fires on his hands which
NO one knew anything about. Need
less to say, the state forester is now
converted to aerial forestry patrol

u LIEN had been feeling that there

During the summer, for example,
she had taken a trip. Everyone seemed
to enjoy it. Everyone seemed to be
glad to get away from the world with
it's scandals and it's spoilt civilization.
That was what everyone said as they
took the trip through the simple wilds,
remote and picturesque and old.
This seemed to be the life everyone
longed for and then some one men,
toned a scandal which had taken place
nearby some months before.
With dash everyone made for the
scene-so they could tell the people
back home that they had seen the To-
cality of the scandal and Ellen had
been disguised. Was It such sordld
world after all? .'> 49,
Then she had taken some poor chill
dren to a big store to see the Christ
mas display and they had been refused
admittance. The customers had OBJ
jected to such crowds Of children
they wanted to see the display them
selves-why should poor children see
the toys when they could only look?
And all about the outside of the store
were eager little faces peering into
the windows and hoping that perhaps
they could get in when the one who
watched at the door was not looking.
Once in a while one did and the chill
dren from outside waited for the news.
"What did you see? What did you
see?" they shouted as the lucky one
came out again.
Other stores had been different.
Other stores had not had their rich
