FOUR OUT OF FIVE ELIGIBLE
VETERANS APPLIED FOR AID
JUSTED COMPENSATION, WAR
DEPARTMENT SHOWS, AS
LIGHTNING CALCULATOR
NEAR END OF HUGE TASK.
Washington, D. C.-Four out of
every five World War veterans en-
titled to adjusted compensation had
applied for it up to December 81,
1925, when Uncle Sans largest sim
gle clerical job approached compile
ton.
Applications received up to jan
uary / approached 100000, accord
ing to information received by The
American Legion sponsors of the
bill, from the adjutant generals of
flee of the war department. Of
these, approximately 100000 were
certified to the veterans bureau as
valid. The others had been disallow-
ed or were in process of correction.
Some idea of the magnitude of the
TASK can Dt Ildu lIoiii iiit iaSt thnt
100000 individual papers of rec
ord had to be filed in connection
with it. Papers of thousands of
veterans ineligible for compensation
had to be weeded out of the mass.
Three hundred thousand veterans
forgot to sign their names to their
applications.
All this involved paralyzing
amount of detail, for which a special
"bonus machine" was devised. Stan
dard adding machines were rebuilt
in such way that all an operator
had to do was to give the machine
the facts regarding the applicants
service and the machine calculated
the bonus due in dollars With these
machines a single employee could
compute 1880 of the simpler cases
in a day, about one case every ten
seconds.
Applications came in from eighty
four foreign territories, including
China, Armenia, the Cape Verde ISL
ands, Iceland, India, Palestine, Lat
via, Cypress, Tahiti, Korea, Burma
and San Marine.
All sorts of personal problems
had to be dealt with. One veteran
wrote that he "did not need the
money but would like the war de-
partment to send lumber for new
house." A wife located her "a. W..
o. L." husband through his bonus
application. The two became recon-
ciled and announced that they plan
ned to use the money received to
set up housekeeping again.
A man in midwestern commpn-
ity asked the war department to
recommend a good bank in which
his son might deposit his bonus
money, as he did not consider the
banks in his home state safe. An
Arkansas veteran wanted, in lieu of
his compensation, "a pair of button
hole shirs and pair of cutting
shirs, square, yardstick and a
corner stick. If / could get just
enough money to pay my board and
bair my little expenses that will be
enuf," he wrote.
Under the law, applications may
be accepted up to January l, 1928.
However, the big task of Adjutant
Geneal Robert c. Davis and his
lightning bonus calculators is about
over.

actual issue whether this liquor is to be sold legally
or illegally. No person doubts that it is being
sold and that it will continue to be sold
Incidentally, the prodgious profits made by
lawbreakers would go to the support of the govern
ment under dspensary system. These would
make possible drastic tax reductions
