who enlisted during the war as
citizens of such states, and it is
regretable to learn that such dis
tribution of cash was not real
or lasting benefit to a large per
centage OF the men, but was
largely spent by them in having
a good time, which involved ces-
sation of work while that money
lasted" And
Whereas, the Congressional Record
as it pertains to the Adjusted Com
pensation Bill contains q statement
lodged by the American Legion the
result of poll made Of the first TO-
900 men who were paid cash bonus
by one of the Eastern states. less
than one per cent Of that number had
failed to apply the money so paid
them to beneficial uses and that more
than 80 per cent of the men had used
the money to acquire homes. pay
mortgages on homes, for educational
and vocational purposes. and in other
beneficial ways. and
Whereas, is 10 incapable OF belief
that Senator Phipps is not without
knowledge of the facts contained in
the Congressional Record, as above
The Delta independent., 1922-09-01

set forth, owing to the wide publicity
that has been given to the subject.
therefore,
Be It Resolved, that this Post, Of
the American, express its disapproval
and condemnation of such statement
as that which came to us over the
signature of Senator Lawrence c.
Phipps, and that we denounce the
statement as being libel and slander
upon the character, reputation and
good name of all ex-service men, and
that the said is unfair and untrue. and
we believe that it is being used by
Senator as subterfuge to conceal his
personal motives for opposing the
bill.
Whereas, in the same communica-
tion Senator Phipps has stated furth-
er, as follows:
Should the bill be SO amend
ed as to eliminate the drain upon
the Federal Treasury by substitu-
ting paid-up insurance, payable
by the government upon the
death OF the beneficiary, will
gladly vote for it even though it
involves expenditure in the fu-
ture exceeding five billions Of
dollars"
Resolved, that the members of this
Post regard and construe such a
statement as showing but little or no
concern on the part of Senator
Phipps for the men who fought in
Flanders and in France while Senator
Phipps was reaping enormous profits
through his associations with the
steel trust, and that We condemn this
attitude on the part of Senator Phipps
as being unsympathetic to the soldier
and unpatriotic, in that paid up in
surance such as is suggested can be
of no personal benefit to the ex-soldier
as it is not to be paid until his death
and would Of necessity who survive
him. And be it further
Resolved, that we regard Senator
Phipps as a selfish and scheming poll
tician, wholly unqualified and untitled
to represent the state Of Colorado in
the Senate Chamber OF the United
States.
