VETERAN POLICY
Manner of Placing Officers
on Retired List Hit.
By Times Special

By Times Special
WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.-Gen-
eral Frank T. Hines, director of the
United States veterans bureau, and
other bureau officials are being
criticised by Representative Roy G.
Fitzgerald of Ohio for the manner
in which emergency army officers
are being placed on the retired list.
Under the Tyson Fitzgerald bill,
which was passed by congress over
the veto of President Coolidge last
May, all persons who served as Of
ficers of the army, navy, or marine
corps during the World war, other
than as regular officers, are entitled
to be placed on retired list and
receive rs per cent of their pay if
they incurred 80 per cent physical
disability in line of duty.
Fitzgerald charged today that the
veterans bureau has been laggard
IN carrying out the provisions of the
act and said hundreds of protests
are being received at his Office.
1.-The intentions of congress are
being thwarted by the bureau"
Fitzgerald said.
He criticised Director Hines for
hardness in requesting John g.
Sargent, Attorney General to in
terpret legal question.
