charged with breachGef the peace in
beating his wife at their house boat
home in the Ohio at the foot of Cot
tage street, fell through with and the
defendant was discharged by Judge
Curran in City Court Wednesday after
noon when the wife, who made the
charges, admitted that she had been
drinking liquor and it was proven that
she was drunk thereby discrediting
her as witness.
The case against Chas. Mitchell,
charged with being the owner of a
moonshine still found by officers in
the willows near the Preston boat, also
fell through when Mrs. Preston, the
chief prosecuting witness testified
that she did not know to whom the
still belonged although she had pre-
viously told officers that it was Mitch
ellis property.

Twenty-siN boys answered the

various reasons may not have been
able to attend the meeting Tuesday

GOOD news FOR
CIVIL WAR VETER.
ans IN new RULING
Secretary Fall Orders Strong Lib
eralfzatiOn Of the Practice Of
the Federal Pension
Bureau.

Hon. A. Is. Fall, Secretary Of the In
terror Department, himself a Spanish
War veteran and a most appreciatiye
and sympathetic friend of men "who
have borne the brunt of battle" and
their widows and orphans, has handed
down in the Kennedy case an impor-
tant decision concerning the COM
mencement OF the $72 rate allowed by
the act Of May /, 1920, to veterans Of
the Civil and Mexican Wars whose
physical conditions are such as to re-
quire the regular aid and attendance
Of another person.
Prior to April rs, 1921, when Secre-
tary Fall handed down his decision in
the Graham case, the increase to $72
per month was made to commence
from the date of medical examination
OF the pensioner by surgeon or board
OF surgeons designated by the Pension
Bureau Secretary Fall had not been
in office two months when he rendered
the decision in the Graham case under
which this narrow and restricted in
| terpretation of the act of May /, 1920,
was modified and the $72 rate was
made to commence from the date of
filing the claim therefor, If the evil
dence in the case showed the condition
OF helplessness existed at that time.
In that decision the Secretary enunci-
ated a most Just and equitable rule of
practice: Applicants for pension
should not be penalized because of de-
lay, necessary though 1t be, of the Gov
ernment"
The decision in the Kennedy case
holds that eff person in receipt of
pension under existing law is shown
to be, on the date of APPROVAL of act
MAY 1, 1920), in physical condition
requiring regular aid and attendance
OF another person and emitting him to
the rate Of $72 per month under the
provisions Of section OF said act, then
said rate OF s72 is to commence from
the date OF the approval of said act
MAY 1, 1920; but If he is not shown
to be In the physical condition en-
titling him to said rate on said date
then on any subsequent date that said
conditions are shown to exist"
Approximately $1,000 claims for the
$72 rate have been allowed since May
IL loon opd % tba pracont TINA oboni
$1,000 veterans are in receipt OF said
$72 rate. In none of these cases has
the pensioner been afforded the oppor.
tunity to show by evidence whether
the conditions emitting him to salc
rate existed on May 1, 1920, or If they
did not thon exist, the subsequent date
on which said conditions first existed
In the cases heretofore allowed reis'
sues can be made, under the terms o.
the Kennedy decision, to commence
the s72 rate from May 1, 1920, the date
of approval Of this act, or from the
date when the condition of helpless
ness is shown after the approval O
this act. Pensioners now in receipt o
$72 under the act OF May I, 1920, ma!
be entitled to an earlier date of com
mencement of said rate; widows o
pensioners who were allowed $72 pc,
