County Forester Flintham dIS'
patched another force from Hughes
Lake district, directed TO enter the
side of Sawmill mountain, burned
here last week.
The Liebre mountains are an eN-
tension of the Sawmill range, heaN-
ilv timbered and as dry as dust.
Should the fire reach this area, FOR
estrv officials believe it could new
er be checked before sweeping the
Ridge Route. 1t would most likely
head directly toward Sandberg s, Il
popular Ridge Route resort, then
down across the Piru canyon, laying
waste Il widespread watershed eX'
tending far back into Venture coun-
ty.
More than 1000 men are fighting
in flames, worn out by five days
hattling with the fire demon which
seems almost mconquerable.
Besides, many of the county
trucks which are being used to trans
port men and supplies are out of
commission, and must be repaired
before they can be of service.
Seriousness Of the situation on the
new front, where the fire threatens
to reach u size yet unapproached, Is
not being minimized by forestry OF

couraged by the turn the battle has

weekly outlining and explaining the
compensation act and the require
ments in filling in the application
blanks. These copies of the week
ly are at Mr.. Farrar S office and can
be secured by calling there for them.
In a brief outline under the title,
"A Plain Language Summary of
the Adjusted COMPENSATION Act,
the legion weekly states:
The adjusted compensation act
provides for compensation for World
War veterans, and for the depend
ants of certain deceased veterans, in
the basic amounts of one dollar for
every day of home and $l.25 for
every day of overseas service. The
basic maximum to any individual
who had no overseas service is $500.
The basic maximum to any individ
ual who had both home and over
seas service is $62j.00.
Some Paid In Cash
Veterans whose compensation
at the above rate amounts to $50
or less will be paid in cash. Depend
ants of deceased veterans whose
compensation is in excess of the $50
will not receive cash-that is, inn
mediately.
'The amount of their. credit will
be turned over to the director of
the Veterans Bureau, who will in
crease it by p per cent, buy with
the sum of money thus determined
20 wear endowment paid-up life
insurance policy and deliver the
same to the veteran. The veteran s
credit, thus invested, eventually will
yield a still larger return by the
continual earning and coEIpounding
of interest.
"'The policy will mature and be
paid TO the veteran in cash at the
end of 20 years, or if he dies in
the interval his heirs will get :he
full amount of the policy immed-
lately The veteran can borrow on
his policy when it is two years old. -
Commenting editoriaiiv on the
compensation act the legion weekly
saws: "'Neterans who will receive
their compensation i'll the form OF
an endowment insurance policy are
the gamers in many ways. Their
actual rate of compensation is not
a dollar a day for home and $l.21

it varies with the age of the vet

ment he fills out his application this
