The Prohteers to the Bar
(Americnn Legion Weekly


The World war cost the United
States thirty-six billion dollars.
Twelve billion dollars of this sum
was raised by taxation during the
war. The remainder, twenty-four
billions. became mortgage ON the
future of America. 1t must be paid
by the men, women and children of
this country. The 100000 Ameri-
canswho wore the uniform during the
war. giving freely health and energy
and even life itself, must now share
with their countrymcn the burdens
of this debt. They gave their time
and their bodies; they must now give
their earnings. Giving doubly, they
have double interests in knowing
if any portion of the deb, is dishon-
est.
Representative Graham. chairman
of the Congressional Committee
which investigates war expenditures,
recently declared before the House
that the governments losses on war
contracts, through waste and frauds,
We're S7,250. 100000. The investiga-
tons conducted by Mr.. Graham's
committee revealed Il nauseating Sc
ries of scandals involving war prof.
tecring and grating. They showed
that while men were dying in France,
other men in this country, with the
hearts and souls of Benedict Ar
mold, We're siabbing their country in
the back. Hidden by the smoke OF
battle and shielded by war time Sc
crecy, they We're footing the treasury.
They We're selling harness, aircraft,
big guns, salmon, meat, lumber and
motors with scandalous disregard of
the principles of honesty.
The men who fought the war have
been puzzled to know why in the face
of all these scandals their government
has waited so long to begin the prose
cution of profteers and contract graf.
tiers. They now have the consolation
of knowing that the World war vet
Grams in Congress have finally forced
the government 10 take action. The
insistcnt voices of two Representa-
tives-Johnson, of South Dakota, and
| Woodruff. of Michigan-de demanding
punishment for the war guilty have
aroused the country. Congress has
appropriated 100000 to begin the
tardy prosecutions.

Who Was Thought to Be
Dead is Located in Ne~

Big Stone Gap, Va, July "a.

Big Stone Gap, Va, July 2i.
Editor POST
Dear Sr-For the benefit of the
friends and relatives of my brother,
W.K. Kilbourne. whom we all thought
was dead, ! wish to make the follow
ing statement:
In the fill of 1919, he was living at
Rison, Ark. and was in poor health
from the effects Of the Flu" and went
to Hot Springs for treatment In
January. 1929, he wrote me that he
was very sick, but if he got able to
travel, he was going to Central
America, or Cuba, on business trip
with some frineds and would write
me when located.
never heard anything more from
him. His friends went to Cuba. and
stayed six months and returned
They said my brother was to join
them on their trip. but did not do so,
and they had not heard of him since
then wrote letters to many points
trying to get some trace of him, but
could not.
long since came to the conclu-
sion that he had met with foul play,
, or died in hospital. On July IL,
1922, he wrote to the editor of the
Eagle of Whitesburg, Ky, to send
him the paper to 1927 Bienville ST.,
New Orleans, La. This information
was communicated to me by John A.
Webb, Of Whitesburg, KY, and |
wrote to my brother, and received u
prompt reply. stating that he was in
good health, and weighed 30 pounds
more than he did when he went TO
Louisiana. He said when he left
Hot Springs, he intended to go to
Cuba. but did not get ready in time,
so he went to the Erich Delta" of
Mississippi and operated cotton
plantation in 1920, and sold out
there, and went TO New Orleans and
formed partnership with some Ken
lucky friends and went into the hard
wood lumber business, and is making
! money, and doing well, and his health
is fine.
He also sent me his picture. He
sent his bes, regards TO all inquiring
friends, and asked them to write to
him at 1927, Bienville ST., New Or
leans, La. Thanking you for publish
ing this letter, am
Yours very truly,
w. B. KILBOURN.

DAVIS, Okla.-County Commission
Murray county road bonds are now
before the attorney general for ap.
proval and a report from him as to
their legality is daily expected. The
bonds were delivered to the attorney
general on the oath of February by
Commissioner J. A. Mcclure. chair
man of the board. The general belief
is that the bonds will be found cor.
rect and legal, and that the attorney
generals approval will be Forthcoming.
The highway department advises that
$50 900 federal aid money is now avail
able, and it is the plan Of the COM
missioners TO sell the bonds only as
the federal aid is made available. 1t
is thought that by the time the first
fifty thousand has been expended,
more federal funds will be available.
