Congress to lay down a workable

carry it out, the fact remains clear
that thousands of men and their FAM

This applies to administering hos

The veterans new drive for justice

arising from war service.
Four-Action by the bureau in
changing mems ratings as to degree
OF disability compensation without ply
steal re.examination of the men them
selves.
The attack of the veterans will be
directed by Robert s. Marx, judge
of the superior court of Cincinnati,

The first.line defense of the gov.
