ADJUSTED SERVICE
COMPENSATION Time

Veterans Urged to Get AppIlca-

Fargo, N. D., Oct. 8.-Application
for adjusted service compensation by
preferred dependents Of cx-service
men who served in the armed forces
Of the United States during the World
and who have disappeared must
be made within seven years after the
disappearance Of the veteran and be-
fore January 3. according to T. q.

Gently by the comptroller general Of
tho United States. Kraabel said. Pre-
ferred dependents r the wives. chill

This benefit Kraabel said. 9th
erwise known as the national bonus, is
payable to the veterans themselves in
the form of paid-up 20-year c%ertifi-
Gates. provided application is made
before January l. 1880. a large per-
centage OF eligible ex-service men
have already availed themselves OF
this legislation.
This appeal is directed TO the small
minority who have neglected this
matter. and to the dependents of
those who have died or disappeared
before application was filed.
There were approximately 28.0o0
North Dakota men in service between
April 6. 1917. and November IL, 1918.
It Is estimated that 81 per cent Of
these have been accorded settlement,
either in the form Of certificates,
cash payments claims Of $50 or less
or payments of the credits to de-
pendents. There still remain a very
small percentage who should take adj
vantage of this benefit without any
further delay.
1T can be readily assumed that
among these 100 or 800 who have not
filed their applications there are some
of the most deserving cases of all. The
families in remote sections. the back
ward. the ignorant. the indifferent
cX-service men and their folks should
be urged to make their wants known
in this matter and be assisted in max
ing proper applications.

 Intensely active, inclined to ner- vousness, he has few hobbies. He smokes cigars considerably and has a pronounced fondness for butter milk. He fishes some, and is adept at playing pitch. It is not un- common to find him perched on the stool of a lunch counter, late at night, eating bread and milk with friend He has a rare vein of humor, blended with biting sar- casm. He refers to himself as a curb stone lawyer" r
 His friends have seen him as a successful attorney, as the Cover nor of their State, as distributor of automobiles, and as the head of life insurance company. He owns and operates three farms.
 Although born in Princeton, 20 miles from here. in 1877, he was a citizen of Trenton when elected Governor. He received 919 of the 998 votes cast in the primary by Republican voters of the town He attended Oberlin (Ohio) Academy, received the degree of bachelor of art from the University of Michi- gan and, later, the degree of bache- Tor of law from the University of Iowa. He was admitted to the bar at Princeton, Mo, in 1900 In Trenton he conducted a mems Bible class at the Methodist Church.
 In 1912 he was the choice of the Progressive Paety for Attorney General. He had led the Roosevelt forces of the Third Congressional District through a stormy fight that ended with the convention at Excelsior Springs.
 Of that campaign he remarked, T got a worms eye, view of every steam roller that ran that year"
