DISABLED SOLDIERS AND THE BONUS

While we are hearing so much about the bonus for the
ex-service men and the fight that is being made in congress
TO get a bonus bill through, we are still having brought to
our attention the plight of the disabled soldiers, many of
whom, it is claimed, are still left to shift for themselves. AS
long as any of these men are in want or are not being proper
ly cared for there is no ground for the able bodied ex-ser-
vice man to press his claim on the government.
According to literature received in this office there has
been organized a National Disabled Soldiers League, the
state convention of which has just been held in Long Branch
A letter signed by the state commander of this league reads
in parts as follows:
"We are sending out a few thousand letters on borrow
ed capital hoping to get a hundred thousand dollars to carry
on our work in the state of New Jersey for the next twelve
months. Our budget includes fifty thousand dollars for the
relief of the mentally i'll, the shel-shocked cases that have
not as yet been reached by the government.
Don't try to tell us that Uncle Sam is doing everything
for us. Our country is doing a great deal. But many men
ON account of lost records and technicalities are left out in
the cold as far as pension and allowance money is concerned
Your share of this need is what you feel like giving. Our
governments unintentional, but red-taped neglect of some
of the disabled veterans makes this opportunity for you to
help us TO help them
Who are these disabled soldiers and how many are
there who, because of lost records and technicaities,' "
have been left out in the cold as far as pension and allow
ance money is concerned? If it is possible for this organi-
cation known as the National Disabled Soldiers League to
find them out it ought to be possible to get their claims ad-
justed at Washington. If there are a sufficient number of
such men mentally i'll and shell-shocked right here in New
Jersey to require $50, 900 for their assistance during the
next twelve months what must be the number of such needy
cases throughout the country? Surely, here is real work
to do.
If The leaders in this bonus movement were Just as active
in behalf of their disabled comrades as they are for the
bonus in which they, themselves, will benefit, we are sure
that it would not be necessary to organize a disabled SOL
diers' league and raise funds by public appeal for their care.
Why is not the same effort being made at Washington to Sc
cure proper care for these disabled men as is being made in
behalf of the bonus? The public would like to know.

THE DOG FAMILY

Fashions in dogs are changing. You may have noticed
lately that the majority OF lost and found ads, dealing with
CANNES, are for Airedales that have strayed from home.
The Airedale craze is refreshing, after the epidemic Of
diminutive dogs that looked like 4 cross between a starved
rat and a dwarf giraffe.
Popularity Of different breeds Of dogs seems to travel in
waves. There was an epidemic Of hounds, long ago, when L
man had little social standing unless his kennels housed ~
least FIVE.
Pug dogs had their day. So did water spaniehs, fox ter
riers and Newfoundlands. The Boston bull" was all the rag
when the Gibson Girls clothes and huge, bullying ~pompadou
were in style.
To a psychologist, each of these dog crazes reflected 'th,
trend Of the times"
Now it's the Airedale's dsy-probably,b because he is ex
pensive and a one man dog. Il
The dog-whieh in the wild state never barks lis one Of
the few animals that have accompanied man, IN friendship,
during the long march out of barbarism.
Originally dogs, jaekals, foxes and wolves belonged 70
the same family. ~
The origin of domestic OF tame dogs is lost in the mists
that enshroud the period Of the cave man. Professor Shaers
researches in dogoloey led him 10 believe that dogs were
first domesticated to provide an emergency food supply dur
ing famine.
A more plausible guess is that dogs were tanned to help
crafty mans craving for submissive affection, also 20 tickle
his vanity. Our primitive ancestors, no doubt, felt very much
pleased with themselves when they contemplated the dogs
they had subdued from the wild state.
Nevertheless, the dog has accompanied man into so-called
civilization, and in return has been rewarded with a maze OF
legislation concerning his legal status, rights, ownership and
conduct.
The Oldest monuments Of India and Egypt show that an
Gent man reyeled in ownership of Fido, Towscr, Bruno and
Bob.
which correspond to the carvings on monuments Of long ago.
How the dog has survived mans passion for extermina-
ting animal life, is a riddle, despite the affection with which
he rewards kindness to him. That's why the study Of dogs
is inseparable from the study of human nature.

THE CONGRESSIONAL REFERENDUM

While the Republican campaign for the fall election is
fairly well advanced due TO the fact that the candidates for
all the important Offices are practically settled upon, the
Democrats, excepting for United States senator, are still
pretty much up in the air. Governor Edwards will be Sen
ator Frelnghuysens opponent, but who is to run against
Senator Runyon for the governorship? As far as congress
is concerned, the Republicans of the third district will
doubtless re-nominate Congressman Appleby. But hardly
anything has been heard from the Democratic camp as to
who his opponent will be.
There is no question but what one of the main issues
as far as the congressional election is concerned.will be the
modification Of the Volstead law. In a great many districts
where the lineup has already taken place, ties issue has
been clearly drawn so that the election will take the form
of a referendum on the question OF prohibition rs it is now
being carried out.
And the congressional election is the only place where
a referendum can be properly taken. To draw the line be-
tween the wet and 'drys' as far as the state legislature
or the governor is concerned is foolish. 1t makes no differ
ence what kind of laws the state may pass, the laws of con-
9ress are superior to any slate-made law and the fact that
what enforcement is now going on is almost exclusively
under federal jurisdiction shows how little any action on the
part of the state may count. AS long as the Volstead act
remains unchanged on the statute books of the nation we
may expect conditions to exist practically as they are today.
III there is to be any change congress must do it and the
only way the people can make their votes count on the pro-
hibition issue is to vote for the candidate for congress who
represents their views.
In this district Congressman Appleby was elected two
years ago as a 'dry" But two years of the Volstead act has
brought about a vast change in sentiment. Many who were
out and out 'dry" two years ago have become so thoroughly
disgusted with conditions that have been brought about that
they would welcome some modification in the law as it now
! stands. Whether or not Mr.. Appleby has changed any in his
! position during the past two years, there has been no means
&of telling. He will probably have to declare himself defn-
ftely, however, before the campaign is far advanced. If he
ftmains as "dry'' as he was two years ago and the Democrats
tut up a high class man who favors a more practical and
onest enforcement law for the eighteenth amendment, Mr.
kppleby will have a hard fight on his hands.

CAPTURED tues.

After having served five months in

gerstaff, who was released only one
month and three days ago, was ar
rested Tuesday and charge of IL
licit distilling entered against him.
The matter was reported Monday
night to Sheriff Hartsfeld, who, with
U. S. Deputy Marshal Temple and
Chief Deputy Sheriff. Buck Collins
went to the scene where the still was
reported to be. They found the still
and it was one of the biggest and
best made copper stills ever captured
In the county.
Biggerstaff, who is from Kentucky,
is one of the best distillers in the
south, it is said. He knows just how
to set up a still and how to make the
best grade of whisky. He was greatly
under the influence of his own pro-
ducts when arrested and was at his
home. His still was only short dis
tance from his home. He was brought
to town by the officers and landed in
the county Jail, pending a preliminary
hearing.

TO THE CLUB MEMBERS OF THE

| am glad to be able to say to you
that, after great effort, we have been
able to secure the services of Miss
Doney for another year. 1t is only by
the effort Of the good women and the
girls of the County that this has been
accomplished. All praise is due to the
County that this has been accomplish
ed. All praise is due to the women
who worked SO industriously to this
end.
In order to supplement her salary
to equal what she had been offered
to go to another county, a few have
had to shoulder the responsibility of
guaranteeing to her $4,000 more
than the Board of Supervisors would
pay. We must trust to the liberality
Of our publie- spirited people to raise
this amount:
Her services to Lafayette County
last year, by actual computation,
show the astounding sum of over
$75,0O0.00. We felt that we could
not afford to give up this work, and
we appeal now to all interested in it
to give all the support and .encour-
agement possible, and, if they will.
to help us to raise what must be paid
by the public subscription.
Very respectfully,
JAMES STONE.
