THAT-It wouldn't be we'll to say Putnam should have some fires but unless the city's fire apparatus gets bit of exercise soon it will rust from lack of use. The last fire alarm was rung in June 24th for a garage fire on Walnut street. It may be that this unusual calm precedes a storm. If the storm holds off until the new pipes for the water depart ment are laid and functioning it will give the citizens an opportunity to determine the effectiveness of the improved water works system.

Veteran Complains
Of Officials Stand

Editor. Times:
For not only myself, but sew
eral hundred other veterans are
under the same unjust treatment
from the Government as the
veterans compensation act now
stands.
For several hundred other vet
erans have had to do the same
as /, and go on as we'll as he
possibly can to exist, just be-
cause that some buddy" who
fell on the battlefield cannot
come to life to support his claim
to gain justified compensation
and overpower some of the red
tape that he now has to put up
with, and a few men in the
Veterans Bureau, such as Direc-
tor Hines, who has already had
a couple of biffs in the jaw.
If several more Of them were
given the same, 1t might even
help to change MIR. Hoover's view
on the matter. If the people
had the voice to speak they would
follow the dictates of the Senate
and pass the bill over the Presi.
dent or anyone else that OBJ
jected.
Mr.. Mellon and Mr.. Hoover
claim it will put the Government
in a strain, and that taxes will
have to be raised.
What If taxes are raised, they
were raised to send us to Europe
and the country isn't broke yet,
so why complain over just
cause?
If Mr.. Hoover and a few more
of them would quit worrying so
much about prohibition and spend
some of the money that, is doing
no good and let the people drink
if they want to and pay vet
eran some of the dollars spent
in that way.

three farmers have been given work
on the road from Amesville to

Marion township. and we believe
they will run on tower and be re-
lieved by two or three others in a
few days. The $1,000,0OO fund has
vanished as the mirage of the des-
ert. The drouth sections have been
viewed by committees, until there
must be trail of dust made by the
automobiles that is binding, yet
nothing has been done, nothing but
false promises. If the voters could
have picture that they might see
