BY THE BONUS EDITOR

So many letters have been pill
ing up on the desk Of the Bonus
Editor that henceforward ques-
tions on the "baby bond" payment
of the adjusted service certificates
will be answered by the type Of
information desired.
This column on one day will
answer queries regarding the de-
livery of the bonds, on another
day queries on how to cash the
bonds, and so on.
Today the column deals with
the numerous requests for infor-
nation on the address to which q
veterans bonds will be delivered.
Typical queries follow:
Question: made application
for my bonds at a regional office
in California, but gave my ad.
dress as being here in the Dis
trict. Do I receive my bonds in
California or direct from the
Treasury at my address here?
DIG.
Answer-Your bonds will be
delivered by your regular letter
carrier on the night of June Is
at the local address given by
you on your application.
Question: gave my address
originally as general delivery.
Then 1 found out that no bonds
will be delivered to such an ad-
dress, so 1 changed the address.
Can I expect my bonds on June
Is? VIII.
AnSwer-You are in error in
assuming that no bonds will be
delivered to general delivery.
They will be delivered to any
address, but it is more difficult
to establish Identification through
the general delivery clerk than

pit is through your regular letter
carrier at your home.
However, if you changed your
address, your bonds will in all
probability be delivered to tn e
second address on June Is.
Question: live in veterans
hospital, under treatment. Can
my wife receive my bonds at my
home address or will have to
come home to receive them?
c. r. c.
AnSwer-If you will change your
address to the hospital, on Form
1909, which the proper authorities
there can supply you, your bonds
will be delivered to your bedside.
Other answerS-To E. ]. k
Arrangements are now being made
so that you can receive your
bonds at the Navy Yard; to j.
I. K: Your bonds will be deliv-
cred by special delivery at the

Mississippi Flood
Control Act Voted

The $272,000,000 Mississippi
flood control act was finally en-.
acted by Congress yesterday when
the Senate approved a conference
report. The measure now goes to
tn White House for President
RooSevelt's signature. 1t provides
for construction of 100-mile-long,
1O-mile-wide spillway in the lower
Mississippi Valley to relieve flood
pressure along the entire length
Of the river.

$72,16O: and for all other house
furnishings about $366,080;
These sums do not include
the millions to be spent fol
building or buying homes, and
the repair or improvement Of
homes already owned.
Benefit to Industry
The estimates of the way in
which ex-service men will divide
their bonus dollars prove a 19'
year-old contention of the Hearst
newspapers - a contention that
the veterans need the money,
and will distribute 1t sensibly in
such a manner that trade and
industry will be benefited.
Further proof is given by the
dozens Of letters received daily
by the Bonus Editor of The
Washington Times, in which vet
eranS have revealed the ways
they expect to spend their cash.

EQUIPMENT
FORH0MES

More than 1000 refrigerators,
and nearly as many radios, will be
sold in Washington soon after
June II as a direct result Of the
approximately $4,000, 900 in cash
to be distributed to World War
veterans after they cash their
"baby bonds"
Such is the inference to be
drawn from applying to the Wash

expenditures for home equipment

OF the probable amount OF
$1,25O, 900 to be expended here by

pected to pay out $491, $50.

PALESTINE FUND |URGED BY FARLEY
Postmaster Backs Drive for $3,5OO,OOO for
 Jews of Germany

New York-Postmask r-Genera! James A. Farley urges wide support of the campaign of the united Pal- estine appeal to raise $3,5O,OOO for the settlement in Palestine of e maximum number of Jews of Ger many, Poland and other lands, in a message which he addressed to Dr. stephen s. Wise, national chairman of the united Palestine appeal.
 Commenting on the fact that the progress already registered as a re- suit of Jewish activities is indeed amazing" MT. Farley said:
 "The record of pioneering ach- ievement as measured in physical progress in Palestine is indeed amazing, but what is of even great CT significance is the spirit of secu- rity which so many of your CO., religionists have been able to ach- ieve because of the efforts or the united Palestine appeal.
 "The present appeal for funds to increase the capacity of Pales- tine to absorb an increasing num- Der of homeless and wandering Jews is deserving of support by the Jewish citizens of our land. There can be no greater happiness in life than the knowledge that we have helped to give comfort and succor

Picture Taken,
 Drought Region,
 Causes Trouble

WASHINGTON, Sept l6-It can scarcely be questioned that the re- settlement administration has set new style in government photo graphy, of which the controversial picture of the steer skull and dried water hole was sample
 Dakota editors criticized the re- settlement administration for "fak- ing photographs to make the drought seem more horrible and thus perhaps to further sentiment for resettlement operations.
 The editors protested that pho tographer had used but one steer skull, moving it about for different pictures. T/e resettlement admin istration explained that one pie ture was taken of the bleached skull in dried mud hole. Then the skull was moved about ten feet" and photographed in the foreground of parched grass plain.

bad range management, good and bad game management, and good and bad forest management. Rare ly is the next step taken of show ing a hungry farm family impov- erished by burning of surrounding timber and grazing upon which they had depended.
 It was the resettlement adminis- tration that took that step. The photograph of the bleached skull was only one of a host of pictures taken. A casual glance through administration files open to news paper writers seeking illustrative matter will bring out photographs of fruit tramp" families, those wandering groups who follow the fruit harvest lip and down the country. often in dilapidated cars. children barefoot and rarely in school.

OPPORTUNITY IN THE NORTH

The Fairbanks News-Mner sounds a note that cannot be sounded too often. Too many people see Alaska as land to come to in the summer to make stake and then go Outside Most of them like the country. They also come back But invariably every fall after the cleanup in fish, fur gold they take the long trek down to the States to spend their and then come back in the spring to start all over again. The News-Miner aptly puts it these words:
 The hour is at hand when men in the full
 vigor of life who have been enjoying the pri-
 viege of summers occupation in Alaska and
 now have or soon will have full poke usu-
 ally make up their minds whether they are
 Going Outside" for the winter or are going
 to remain here
 If it turns out as it has for years an army
 of such hardy soon will be congesting
 traffic lines headed southwark These birds
 of passage go out in the fall spend what they
 have, return in the spring with empty pockets
