TO BURY VETERANS OF WARS
Not Exceeding 500 to Be Allowed
for Interrnent OF Participants in
American Conflicts.

Information has been sent to all
posts of the American Legion concern
ing the payment Of funeral expenses
for INDECENT World war veterans by
the United States Veterans Bureau.
A sum not exceeding 500 will be
paid where it is shown that the de-
ceased did not leave sufficient funds
to defray expense of burial.
In addition to this payment trans
portation charges win be paid by the
government from place to death to
that OF lnterment, if 1t is within the
continentsd limits of the United States.
Burial in national cemeteries will fol
low if requested.
Proof that the veteran is INDECENT,
that no money or property is due him,
and that relatives refuse to provide
such funds is required.
This ruling will relieve many posts
of the Legion frequently called upon
to pay funeral expenses of war vet
Grams dying in their locality, without
funds. The ruling applies to veterans
of all American wars.

POST SETS AN EXAMPLE

Some one wanted 70 know
what Kankakee post of the
'merlcan Legion in Kankakse
Ill.,, had done to justify its er.
istence. Some one else pre.
pared a summary of its achieve
ments. And the summary Is
going the rounds Of the press as
an example OF what a Legion
post can do in the way Of max
ing itself useful in a community
The Kankakee post relieved
last winter go transient cases
and prevented those in distress
from becoming temporary
charges on the charities of that
city. 1t Investigated a large
number of cases which proved
fraudulent and drove from the
town So fakes who were endeav-
oring to enlist sympathy and get
money from the public.
1t has a record of supervision
and care of disabled men, of hos
pital visitation, of loans exrprg-
ed to worthy service men in
need of temporary assistance. of
comradely attention to the sick,
and of Christian burial Of the
dead. 1t has looked after the
compensation claims of soldiers
and has stood between them ana
harpies who prey on the unpro-
; tected and uniformed.
Kankakee's organization Of
; the nations defenders is typical.
1t points with pride, and there
are others which are anxious TO
match records with it, Colleo-

well as what has been accom-
plished for the communities with
