Transfers Guardianship
 Work to Legal SerUice

All guardianship activities of the United States veterans bureau have been transferred to the legal service of the bureau In what Is considered the most radical change yet made In the bureau set up by Director Frank T. Hines In his program of reorgani- zation. Heretofore the guardianship activities have been directed as an in- dependent function by Maj. Davis G. Arnold, national guardianship officer, but now they are under the general supervision of Maj. William Wolff Smith, general eounael of the bureau. In effect the change means that the guardianship division will function as a section of the legal service.

 INTERESTING LETTER
Has Become Deeply h. terested in Near East
 Relief Work

Mr. J. R. Heckman, president of the Miners < Merchants Bank of Ketehtkan, who is spending the winter in Seattle, writes entertain ingly of some of his experiences in the Queen City.
 Last summer 1t was my good fortune to be at a meeting in Ket- chikan where the story was told of the heroic efforts of group of Americans to save the lives of good many orphan children in the Near East Up to the ti,:e I heard that lecture and saw the pictures of which the lecture brought, the words Near East Relief, had no special significance to me was so impressed with the mans earn estness and his message that spent some time in introducing him to my friends and helping him in his efforts to secure funds through out Alaska for these children.
 Later in the summer my wife and I came to Seattle for a veea- tion trip. when she was suddenly taken ill and the physician order ed an immediate major operation. All at once the word hospital had a meaning to me. It meant the one chance for life for Mrs. Heckman. I found myself exceedingly grate- ful to the people who years ago had built splendidi hospital in Seattle. that the best surgeons that II could find could have every op- portunity to relieve her intense sufferings. I began to think, too, about the man who had told Us of the men, women, and children who had been driven from home, and through no fault of their own, were unable to secure such care as I was able to give my wife through the erection of this Seattle hospital
 "At this time, Mrs. Heekman's condition is most satisfactory and shortly she should be about again
 During her conyalescence, howe han-, forfnnate enough to spend some time with man who was overseas in the Near East Re- lief Service, and the things he told me has made me feel that l must do more than I thought l could do, partly because the need is so much greater than I thought, partly be- cause I want to back up the heroic Americans who are fighting a win ming fight with famine, disease and death, and partly out of sheer gratitude because when we needed hospital care it was possible for me to secure it.
 q have taken so much time in telling my own story that there isn't much room left for the chil- dren, but 1 never realized quite what shortage of relief funds means until my friend here told me of how one day he stood before a group of more than one hundred orphan children imploring admit tance to an orphanage, and there was room for only twenty. This man picked out twenty of the younger children and left the rest The most of them starved and froze to death that winter He told me of seeing children whose eye balls had burst, of mothers trying to nurse babies at dry breasts, of children dead on the streets of hun ger. Then he told the other side of the story, how the Near East Re lief had taken in over 100,000 ehil- dren, had changed them from hope less wrecks to happy, hardy, heal thy, robust children who were go- ing out of the orphanage at six
