rle think. 1t is a permanent or
ganization, and viii live on wheth-
er the Adjusted Compensation Bill
is passed or fails to pass. Just as
this bill is the greatest problem be
fore the American people today, just
so it is one the Of the greatest prob
lens before the American Legion
today. From the Legion's viewpoint
the merit of this bill is a closed
book, as the bill has passed Congress
twice and was only vetoed because
a suitable plan Tor payment ot
same was not included therein.
Some peorle seem to scorn the
idea of reduction Of taxes, and yet
payment of the compensation to eX-
service men. Senator Hiram john
son saws this can be done easily. The
taxes that are to be reduced are
those taxes which were imposed up
on our people during the war; a.
which time we had to raise not only
paw for our soldiers, but also food
and drink for them; transportation
for them, and ammunition and cloth
ing for them. Now we only have to
raise partial payments for them in
the form of adjusted compensation
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1924-01-21

and it is reasonable to suppose that
it will not take as much taxation
money to do this, as was required
during the awful days of conflict.
The Government has adjusted the
compensation of the railroads, Of
the War Contractors, of the FEEDER
al employees and even the person
mel of the Army and Navy, but they
have yet to adjust the compensation
of the great majority of the men
who did the actual fighting The
ex-service man asks no reward for
his service in uniform, but if he is
forced TO bear his share of the eX-
penses Of the war, as well as give
his services, if he is forced to pay
his share of the bonus given to
railroads and War Contractors,
then he has a right for adjustment
Of his compensation. The people
Of the United States have shown
that they want this debt to the ex-
service men paid by the enactment
of Bonus Legislation in twenty-five
states, and by various straw ballots
held throughout the country.
The Legion contends that the
fight on the Compensation Bill Isl
directly traeeable to Northern Cap
