KENNETH CRAMER ON WAR VETERANS
Gave Practical Talk at [. Hartford on What We Owe the Soldiers
APPEAL TO COMRADES

''The American Legion's one job to justify it's existence is to pro- vide for the disabled veterans, the widows the orphans, and to see that their claims are properly pre- pared so that they will receive the awards that they are entitled to under the existing laws" National Executive Committeeman Kenneth F. Cramer told a meeting of the Hartford County association, Am erican Legion, yesterday in Hart ford.
 "The action of the department executive committee in voting to discontinue the services of our lais on men was taken, "Mr Cram- CT declared, while I was attend ing a meeting of the national Con- mittee in Indianapolis, because of the action taken at the Waterbury department convention last year declaring that if the money for this work was not in the hands of the organization the program must be abandoned.
 T never expected that the de- pertinent of Connecticut would give up this work. If their com- rades cannot carry that fight, the Legion has fallen on evil days Let them look to the Legion to carry on this battle for them. The money for this work must be found and when the department executive committee gathers for it's June meeting I believe that money will be found to continue this work so that the men who are not receiv- ing notices from the Veterans administration that they again must present new evidence will have some place to turn to for specialized guidance"

Then he drew a long breath,
and asked: And what about

Nollie had known that this
would come.
II worked in his office, as

I'd worked late, I did a foolish

Where?"

thing"

Now Nollie hadn't said a
word to any one about Ted

of his exit from the same, con-

So why speak now? Let
