 Service Mems Aid,
 The most interesting part of the evening was a call from Commander John Gniden Of the local post of the American Legion, 10 discuss the pos sihility Of the chamber endorsing some sort Of compensation for the service men.

 II was voted however to take im- mediate action along thia line in the forn, of n uupstionnairc from the state chamber.
 It was understood that the state chamber is taking steps toward get tins from local chambers Il con sensus Of opinion on this subject so queslionnaires undoubtedly will be re- ceived shortly.
 Immediately upon It's receipt, every member of the organization of the chamber will be gotten in touch with, either through q call for q general meeting or by letter requesting ex- pression of personal opinion in writ ing.
 In this way proper ballot can he taken and representative opinion expressed
 It was brought out at the discus sion that there was no question as to taking care of the service men who needed attention or help of any kind nor was there any question anywhere in the country as 10 the desire on the part of the large majority of people to do what they could for all service men.
 The question is what should best be done, how far should it go, and how the government is to pay for t.
 In discussion, it was mutually agreed by all present. that there are a great many service men who needed help and ought to have it and that al the same time there are those who did not need it, and ought not to have it.
