DISABLED BY WAR

The second annual national con ention of the Disabled American Vet rans of the World War is being held n San Francisco Thousands Of men lisahled in such way that thell lisa ability is visible are being honored in that city. Parades are being form ,d and sincere tribute is being paid hose men who are destined to carry trough life the evidences of the sac iices they made for their country or the men and women who walk bout the street, enjoy living, take .heir pleasure and their work in the natural way nature intended they should.
 So there are many of the disabled
 gathered in San Francisco. No one be-
 rrudges them the small satisfaction
 hey may feel at being thus recogniz-
 d and honored. All the country
 would like to join in expressing to
 hem true sympathy for their afflic-
 ions and the hope that life will be as
 pleasant as possible for them under
 he distressing circumstances.
 But all those disabled by war; are
 not gathered in San Francisco. All
 hose disabled by war" are not mem bers of the organization of Disa bled Veterans. And al those disabled b! war" are not recognized, even by over the country there are men who find that they are not quite as efficient
 IS they used to be before they fought on the fields of France. They find that things do not come as easily to them
 oa formerly They see that it is little more difficult to understand things. They do not get on as rapidly
 IS formerly. It is hard to hold posi- ions once easy for them to excel in. They are subject to headaches. Yet they do not call themselves dis lbled" Others do not call them dis abled"
 There are men all over the country who fought in the war who seem to have lost the knack of fighting against intangible foes such as bad business luck, discouragements of seeming trivial character, Of course they lost their positions when they went to war, and it was hard to break in again, perhaps in new places. But ordinarily with a bit of encouragement, they would have managed all right. But today they are not getting that en- coura cement. The war is a thing of the past and they are reminded of that fact constantly. They get pretty discouraged. They used up a lot of their pep lover there"
 And none of these men are among the disabled" None of them are be- Ing hOnOreQ out Tn san francisco. Many of them are not being honored anywhere. Many of them are forgot ten.
 But as truly as those men in San Francisco who have lost an arm, a leg, an eye are entitled to the sym pathy and the help and the honor of everyone in the land, these other un- tortunates, not "disa bled" in the same sense of the word. but disabled" evertheless-they, too, are entitled to the sympathy the help and the | honor of all the country. They should not be forgotten.

TROOPS SENT OUT AGAINST OUTLAWS
Mexico Trying to Put Down
 Bandit KidnapperS

Mexico City. June 2s.-(3y Associ- ated Press )-MeXican government of ficials believe the kidnapping of A Bruce Bieaski in the state of Moreles and the capture of 40 other Americans near Tampico withn a few hours O! each other are isolated cases of ban ditry which will be adequately at tended to by the federal troops now in pursuit
 Secretary of War Serrano last night had not yet been officially advised of the seizure of the Cortez oil con- panys property near Tampico and the detention of the 40 employees, but other advices caused him to direct Gen Guadalupe Sanchez. federal com mander in that zone, 10 start vigor- ous campaign against the rebels in the entire region.
 Once Reported Killed.
 Gen. GorozaVe, commanding the Tampico rebels, was reported killed several weeks ago, but according to the war office he suddenly appeared in the Huasteca district last week and his activities against the oil com pany's Aguada camp are incident to his program of outlawry. Gorozava, who is Spaniard, is said to have nearly 300 well armed men under his command.
 No news has reached here from Tampico concerning the capture, and local representatives of the Cortez in terests said they had no information other than that contained in dispatch es from Washington. It is rumoEed that of the 40 captured less than dozen are Americans, the remainder Icing British subjects
 According to advices lat last night from Cuernavaca, negotiations still are in progress between Mir. Bielaski's friends and his bandit captors A brief message from the former stat ing:
 Bielaski Reported Safe.
 Arrangements for release almost completed. Bruce safe and we'll"
 On some quarters it is asserted that the presence in Cuernavaca of nu- Terous friends of Mir Rielaski has mitigated against his speedy release. and as various arrangements are be- ing made to pay over the ransom none of which comply with the program strictly outlined by the bandits last Sunday.
 Mexican government agents are known to have been in Cuernavaca since Sunday night with sufficient funds to meet the ransom demands. but actual contact with the bandits has not been accomplished. The war office announces that two columns of troops equipped for mountain and hlll fighting are now securing the ter rain adjacent to Cuernavaca.

THE FIRE BOARD.

It is 10 be regretted sincerely that former chairman Hjerpe and former commissioner Kranowitz are lost to the fire board, Mir. Herpes exper- fence and honest interest in the work were valuable assets to the city, He showed that interest in the earnest work he did in visiting various cities to study the two platoon system, anu in devoting considerable time over . period of some seven months to 2 study of the system-all without cost to the city.
 Mayor Paonessa is reported to have made an honest effort to have them reconsider their determination to re sign from their positions. They dit as they had perfect right to do they refused to remain on the board
 The action of Chairman keevers and Commissioner John Rogers in electing the former to the chairman ship, if it was done in the manner suggested by members of the com mon council at the last session, is to be condemned. MT. keevers probably believes he will make better chair man than was MT. Hjerpe, and MT. Rogers shares that belief. This must be so or else there is no excuse foi their action. MT. keevers must have considerable confidence in himself, but this is beside the point.
 The important thing, now that the matter is settled and new commission CTS have been appointed, is to make the best of the situation and give the fire board the help it needs to do it work effectively. Mayor Paonessa should not be blamed for standing by the action of the men he had ap- pointed to the board It should take more than mere electing of someone of whom he did not approve as chair man, if, in fact, he does not approve of MT. keevers, to turn the Mayor against his own appointees. He should not be expected to remove them because of such action. Little good is done to the efficiency of any body of men, be it baseball team or city board, by removing member the moment he makes an error or ''nisplay." We have had enough of constant removals for some real or fancied mistake in judgment.
 There should be no "reprisals." Nc one should advocate biting off the nose to spite the face" No organi- zation should make the city and its people and property suffer because of a powerless fire board merely because that organization does not like the members of the board. For the sake of the city, it's people and it's property and the property of the people the re- publican majority in the common council should give the fire board all the assistance it needs to the end that there may be good fire protection for New Britain.

WOULD SELL 59 BARRELS
Judge Refuses to Permit Whiskey Sale to Satisfy Creditors Because of Pending Appeal.

New Haven, June 2s.-A motion for the sale of 59 ballers of whiskey held in a storehouse here as the property of l. Swirsky and Son, made in behalf of George Finely and Co.,, of New Jersey, who recently secured judgement of s237,ooo against the former, was denied by Judge Banks in superior court yesterday. The judgement was secured in suit which alleged that Swirsky's had made breach of contract in refusing to accept sugar during war days be- cause the price dropped between time of ordering and of receipt. The plaintiffs sought to secure cash as se- curity on the judgment rather than the whiskey. The motion was denied because of notice of appeal to the supreme court in the damage suit.

BOgalusa Syrup Making
a ''Rep" in Other Cities

BOgalusa syrup is rapidly forging
to the front with other products Of
this city. Hebert and Blackwell Of
Pleasant Hill, who are handling the
distribution of "Bogalusa Brand
Syrup" stated last week that over
two hundred gallons of the product
had been sold to out-of-town Gus
toners during the past month, and
that many gallons had been sent to
Chicago, New York and other points
in the North and East.
The syrup is strictly home prod
uce, the firm buying directly from
the farmer, and after testing each
bucket the goods are marked, labelled
and sent to the customer. The merit
Of the syrup is attested by the fact
that not a single customer has re-
turned the product!

WORKS 20 YEARS FOR
ONE BIG COMPANY

There are few men who have given
twenty years Of their lives to one or
ganization, but n. E. Walker Of New
Orleans, who spends a great deal Of
his time in BOgalusa as district agent
for the New York life Insurance
Company, has this distinction and has
been receiving the congratulations Of
his hundreds of friends on the goth
anniversary as his service with the
big insurance company. AS a result
of his long service he receives a pen
sion from the company which would
permit him to retire from active
work.
Mr.. Walker began work with the
New York Life Insurance Company
in Louisville, KY, twenty years ago,
but a few months later located at
Shreveport. He has been working in
his present field for eleven years. He
is the only employee in Louisiana,
Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and
Florida who has worked for the New
York Life for so long a time. Dur
ing these twenty years he has writ
ten approximately $4,00O,000,0O0
worth of life insurance. The largest
policy ever written by Mr.. Walker
was for 100000. He could not re-
call the easiest policy he ever sold,
and was in doubt as to the hardest
one. He stated, however, that the
late B. Carney, a banker of Slaugh-
ter, La, was delivered a policy one
day and that seven days later his es-
tate was given a check for the face
of the policy. This case, he said, was
the earliest he had been called upon
to pay a policy. Mr.. Carney's death
was due to pneumonia.
Mr.. Walkers ideas on life insur-
ance should be of vital interest to
every citizen and he states that where
possible, policies for life insurance
should be paid on a monthly plan.
He said the public would be amazed
to know Of how often life insurance
was spent or put in bad in
vestments, whereas if it had been
placed on an income basis it would
have been much more helpful to the
beneficiaries.
Mr.. Walker is of the opinion that
success comes more from persever-
ance than from genius, and that SER
vice to customers sooner or later will
bring reward.
