LEGION EXPERT

! IGNORED FACTS.
Col. Sprague Answers Hard
ing Aid and Asks Special
Investigating Body.
BY Universal Service.

CHICAGO, Aug. 7.-Charging
that Brig. Gen. Chas. d. Sawyer
has ignored the most important
facts in the promlem of hospitaliza-
tion OF disabled service men, Col.
"A. A. Sprague today suggested
that President Harding name an
investigating committee by physici-
eians to ascertain whether dis
ebled veterans are receiving proper
treatment at the hands of the Gov
ernment.
Colonel Sprague, chairman of the
national rehabilitation committee of
the American Legion, recently
challenged the statements Of Brig
adler General Sawyer, personal
physical of President Harding,
ment that I'VE now have hospitals
which he used to support his argu.
enough except in two districts"
Not Real Hospitals
General Sawyer replied to the
earlier charges of Colonel Sprague
In the Congressional Record of
July 27. The legion chairman to-
day made public a letter which he
sent to the Presidents physician.
THE situation that really exists"
Colonel Sprague wrote, lis that
many of the ninety-nine hospitals
listed as Government hospitals are
only emergency buildings leased
from year to year which the
Government abandons as soon as
proper disqualification can be Sc
cured in Government-owned hos
pitfalls.

captured, wandering about the
vicinity in his pajamas. He was
put back into the room and the next
night killed the tubercular patient
with a chair while the surgical
patient looked on helplessly.
You have expressed strong con-
Victions as to what kind Of care dis
abled service men should have been
quick to accept. With this the
American Legion disagrees. We
want the best for these men, not the
cheapest or the most convenient for
the Government or the easiest way
out for we realize that in many
cases the life and future usefulness
OF the men depend on the kind of
care they get and the spirit with
which they get 1t.
Asks Special Board.
"In order that this situation may
be made clear, we suggest that the
President select a group Of medical
men, preferably from the executive
committee of the American Medical
Association who have no connection
with the Government service, but
whose interest in the sick and dis
abled ex-soldiers is unquestioned, in
order that they may investigate and
report to the general public as to
whether the sick and disabled men
are now being properly hospitali2ed
and are receiving the best treatment
possible, and II not whether adequate
preparations are now being made for
those who need 1t. and those who are

Naturally INDIGNANT.

Representative Allen T. Treudway

city, who has been touring in New
England, met in the house corridor
and snapped experiences. When
Cookies turn came he talked so fast
the congressman had no chance to get

paid to certain famous Inn In the
Berkshires. 1t was in the nature Of
a general complaint against the hotel,
with final parting shot at the bed he
had to sleep upon. He wound up by
telling of discovering scratched on the
headboard Of the bed these words
This Is the worst bed ever slept In.
(signed) Daniel Webster"
During the entire recital Of this
story. Mr.. Treadway's countenance
registered. successfully. surprise, in.
dfgnation, anger, despair, wrath and
utter collapse. Impotently he tried to
reply to the rapid-fre talk Of Mr..
Cooke. hopping his brow and the
space under his collar with his hand

Colleagues who observed the scene
thought Representative Treadway had
a stroke of apoplexy. The real rea.
SON is that Treadway owns and
operates that particular inn, which
has for many years been the model
Of hotel excellence. Treadway was
born on the premises and is proud
