DATA FOR BONUS
Certificates Issued for obi
cations TotaIing Three
Billion Dollars.

Since passage of the bonus law
|11,555 veterans, who had made their
applications for insurance GER
tificates, have died and their heirs
have received $11,s69, 249, according
to Brig. Gen. Frank T. Hines, di-
rector OF the Veterans Bureau.
General Hines estimates 100000
certificates will be issued during
1926, and probably 100000 next
year. The bulk ofs5he work under
the new law is over and hundreds
of temporary employees who were
engaged in preparing the bonus GER
tificates have been released.
The real administrative diff
culties. however. have not yet com
menced, according to General Hines.
These troubles will start after Jan.
I, next year, when veterans will be
enabled to go to banks and borrow
money on the loan value Of their
policies. The loan value per dollar
after three years is IL cents plus.
When veterans fail to repay their
loans the banks viii come to the
Veterans Bureau to collect. The
Veterans Bureau then will hold the
certificate for the veteran, who has
about seventeen years thereafter to
pay off his obligation.

RADIO TROUBLES LAID
TO AURORA BOREALIS.
Engineers Place Blame for Freakish
Reception Noticeable Over
Week End.

Following freakish radio reception
conditions that prevailed over most Of
the eastern half Of the United States
the past week end. engineers again
are endeavOr1ng to place the blame on
the aurora borealis and to discover
the reason for such an influence.
The peculiar features Of reception
wore first noticed Thursday night,
when distant stations that had been
displaying remarkable signal strength
began fading and swinging. The same
unusual occurrence was noted Friday
and Saturday nights, with general
reception very poor and uncertain.
Remote control broadcasting also
was at disadvantage, particularly Fri
day night, when effects Of the aurora
were felt severely by telegraph COM
panies and press associations. The ad-
dress of President Coolidge, delivered
at the International Oratorical Contest
and broadcast by WRC and WIZ, was
one Of the radio features that suffered
from q poor line, presumably caused
by the aurora
Similar occurrences in past years.
with both line telegraph and radio sig
nails, have led many prominent eng1-
neers to the belief that the northern
lights display has a direct influence
on the ether. The reason, however, is
generally regarded as great a mystery
as static.

RAILROADS REPORT
BIG FREIGHT RECORD
More Handled in First Six Months,
1926, Than in Any Correspond

By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Railroads OF the United States han
died during the first six months Of
1926 the greatest freight traffic on
record for any corresponding period,
with the smallest number Of claims
for loss and damage to shipments
while in transit for any similar pc
Rod. according to reports flied today
with the freight claim division Of the
American Railway Association.
Loss and damage claims paid by
the railroads during the first six
months Of 1925 totaled $19,084,004. a
decrease of $1.264. .564, or reduction
Of 6.2 per cent from the amount paid
in the first six months of 1925. The
loss and damage bill for the first half
OF 1926 also was reduction of 2.8 per
cent from the corresponding period
In 1924.
A continuous reduction since 1920
in loss and damage to freight has
been reported annually by the roads,
the report said. This Is due, 1t con-
ttnued, TO the cooperation Of the
roads and of shippers and receivers
of freight.

who "got drunk" were confusing.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1926-10-11

Tears were in her eyes as she
slowly ge-entered the room she had
swept out of a moment before.
You little fool"' she said to her
self, disgustedly.
But the next morning, before she
had had time to expect him, she
looked up to see Franklin Crane.
THE top of the morning to you"
he exclaimed joyfully.
In spite of her leaping heart, she
managed to remain demure.
Good morning, Mr.. Crane"

way, where did you pick up such a

Sonia's heart swelled to think she
had not misunderstood his signal.
But she said nothing. She was de-

careful to leave all advances to him.
He continued, Wasn't that a won

II enjoyed it a lot" she admitted.
"Will you go dancing with me
again, Sonia? Tonight, at the St.

Even then her voice did not trem-

THAT will be awfully nice" she
replied.
But at this departing smile, rosy
clouds enveloped the balcony. Music
burst from all the tyepwriters. The
buzzing Of the girls voices was like
the murmur Of summer breeze.
"Will you go dancing again with
me tonight, Sonia?" Would
she go! Would her silver slippers
