$4,000 WORLD
WAR VETERANS
u,...onsin Had That Many Soldiers
,bs World War, According to
Figures Up to Date.

modison-Just how many soldiers
,an, wisconsin served in the World
rar is still a mooted question, ac-
. "" to Col. John C. SALESMAN,
.o.ratarv of the state service re-
cocnition board.
Tn 10 date the board had recorded
tho names of nearly 10000 Wis
.onsin World war veterans. Of this
nnmber 114,425 had been paid the
.tats soldiers bonus up to Saturday
and the applications for bonus
money continue to come in at the
ate of one a day. Soldiers re-
.oiyino state aid are either recorded
q. having received the money bonus
ar the education equivalent. About
1000 have availed themselves of the
e5neation offered in place of money.
The state will be paying the SOL
ders bonue for many years to come,
Col Salsman declared. Other
states put a time limit on ap-
nlcations for the state bonus and as
a result in some of the other states
only half Of the men who served in
tfa war from that section received
the bonus Mr.. Salsman declared.
"In spite of the large amount of
pubHcity that was given to the fact
that Wisconsin was giving a bonus
TO its veterans, many men come in
here and declare that they have
only recently discovered that there
was such thing as state soldiers
bonus" Mr.. SALESMAN said. "They
either do not read newspapers or do
not understand what they read"
Although the volume of business
for the soldiers bonus now totals
only from Is to 80 month, new
claims will continue to come in for
many years, Col Salesman believes.
The army habit of coming back for
Seconds" remains with many service
men, Col. Salesman asserted. He
declared that men come to the office
Insisting that they had never receiv-
ed their bonus while their discharges
are stamped to the effect that they
had received their money.
"They were paid so long ago that
they have forgotten all about it,"
Col Salsman explained.
There are practically no cases
where bonus money is obtained from
Wisconsin and also from other states
because we keep in close touch with
other states and also because the
discharge shows that money has been
paid he said.
lust how many soldiers Wiscon-
sin had in the war is not known.
There is still number who have not
been recorded, judging by the con-
tnuous applications we get for
further aid"

NOVEMBER IL
ARMISTICE DAY
Gov. Blaine Denounces Invisible
Government" in Proclamation
Naming Armistiee Day.

Madison-"Invsible government
which spells 'despotism and
tyranny was denounced by Govern
or Blaine today in a proclamation
calling upon the people of the state
to observe November IL as
Armistice day.
Whether it is the Facisti or
similar organizations abroad or an
American organization of any kind
with a euphonius name or a name by
ALTERATION, they spell despotism and
tyranny Governor Blaine said in
speaking of these influences which
are undermining American tradi-
ton.
Governor Blaine's proclamation is
as follows:
"On the 18th day of this month
will occur the fifth anniversary of
the ending of the World war. The
destruction attending that war and
the trail of misery which it left are
beyond the power of imagination to
describe.
THAT was fought under the
slogans of Making the world safe
for democracy" and "The war to
end all wars" Those were the
ideals that inspired young manhood
to do battle and to win victories.
Those ideals must not be sacrificed.
Therefore Armistice day this
year takes on new and added
significance. Democracy in the
world was never so insecure. In the
Eastern hemisphere, throughout
Europe, Asia and Africa, the rule of
the people which is the essence Of
democracy has become scarcely
more than a shadow. In America
democracy is threatened on every
hand. Despotism is the rule
abroad and the tyrant's hand hangs
heavily over the people of the world.
Invisible government is displac-
ing orderly government. Organiza-
lions that take government into their
own hands, setting aside the orderly
processes of law, as President
Washington said, have a fatal
tendency. Whether it is the Facisti
or similar organizations abroad or
an American organization of any
kind with a euphonius name or a
name by ALTERATION, they spell
despotism and tyranny. They are
the instruments Of despots and
tyrants. They mean the doom of
democracy
ITO attain throughout the world
the full measure of democracy to
which the people are entitled means
that the shiboleth Of 1.-THE war to
end all wars" will become a fact and
the ideals for which America fought
will be accomplished.
Sunday, November the 18th, by
common consent will be set aside as
special day No better service
can be rendered on that day than to
reiterate the principles Of our De
claration Of Independence, and let
the cry for the preservation of
democracy be heard from every
place Of worship, and from every
public forum. On that day let us
consecrate ourselves anew to the
principles of our fathers that
despotism and tyranny must not
rule in any part of the world, and az
we gather, let US venerate the
memory of those who died in the.
cause that they believed to be for
democracy and world peace.
