INTERESTED IN WORLD PEACE
H. Nelson Jackson, Vermont, One of Legion Men Presenting Program
 to President Harding.

H. Nelson Jackson of Huntington, Vt. Is one of the prominent Ameri- can Legion representatives in its re lations with veterans organizations of other countries. Mir. Jackson is vice president of the Interallied Veterans association, composed of societies of ex-fighters in eight allied countries.
 Recently. NIT. Jackson. with other Legion representatives, submitted to President Harding a program leading toward world peace, recommended by the international veterans organiza. ton at its last convention held in New Orleans.
 Born in Burlington, Mir. Jackson was graduated from the public schools and the University of Vermont. Follow ing his graduation, he entered the prac- tice of medicine in Burlington. In 1900, falling health caused his retirement from professional activities. and he en- tered in series of extensive travel in continental Europe. Continuing in his quest of health, Doctor Jackson took up motoring in 1903, when the automo- bile was in its early stages of develop ment. He was the first man to &C., complish the difficult trip across the American continent by automobile, making the journey In 63 days. After ward he went to Mexico.
 From the beginning of the World war, his interest was on the side of the allies. When Theodore Roose- welt offered to raise a volunteer di- vision and to lead 1t against the Ger mans, Doctor Jackson, on Colonel Roosevelt's personal request, guaran- teed regiment of cavalry from Yer mont. On Americas entrance into the war, Doctor Jackson was refused en- llstment for active combat service on account of his age. Volunteering thereafter in the medical corps, he was commissioned a first lieutenant He reached the front line trenches a major in 1918, and was wounded three times in the capture of Mont Faucon. For his heroism on the field of battle, he received the Distinguished Service Cross, the Croix de Guerre, and the decoration of Chevalier of the Legion of Honor.
 A leader in American Legion affairs in Vermont, Doctor Jackson obtained national distinction among ex-service men. and served the Legion as a na- tional vice commander in 1921-1922.

 pleted a survey of conditions among tubercular veterans In a number of states, which has resulted in the allot. ment of fund of $5G,0OO by the Knights of Columbus to the Legion to relieve the situation.
 Our survey showed that the former fighters. who are migrating to Colo rado, California and other states, are oftentimes in destitute circumstances" Mir. Harris stated. "In many instances they have brought their families with them. Legion posts and charitable or ganizations are attempting to provide 1. for the veterans, but their number has Increased to such an extent that these organizations are unable to care for large percentage of veterans"
 The Legion will administer the fund authorized by the Knights of Colum- bus in the communities where the problem is the heaviest, according to MT. Harris, who stated that the fund will relieve many ex-fghters who have developed tuberculosis since the war. A great many of these men are ineligible for compensation from the United States Veterans bureau be- cause their disability developed at a period later than two years from time of discharge, the bureaus time limit for compensation in cases of pulmon- ary tuberculosis.

YOURS FOR HEALTH

Health. individually and collective

al concern. What effects the health
of our neighbor is not something
any of the neiehbors may :afel- dis
regard. The realization of this by
the public generally is a matter ot
public concern. That which may in
duce cooperation of all available
instrumentalities for health better
mcnt merits support.
There is good evi lcnce that the
Maine Public Health Association Is
accomplishing results along this
line of endcavor. At Portland, Sat,r-
day evening, there was a meeting

Commissioner Kelley said that he
had found the great need of volunt2C!
efforts in the health field, efforts
without which desired results could
not be secured. He congratulated
Maine on the policy of recognizing
the leadership of State and local
health officials, which prevents Gupii-
cation and overlapping. This Uui *

by other states, some of which al

Here in Maine the leaders in the IN :
