GOV. BRICKER' S speech at Great
VI Falls, Montana, was a calm and
factual discussion of the New Deals
attitude toward veterans legislation.
The facts need to be kept clear
in the public mind, inasmuch as New
Deal candidates are seeking political
benefits for themselves in appeals
for the soldiers and sailors graft
tude-and votes-while by their own
actual records in Office they deserve
neither THE CONFIDENCE nor
THE SUPPORT of servicemen and
women.
In his Montana address, Gov.
Bricker showed plainly that the New
Deals attitude toward the veterans
of the FIRST World War was a
HOSTILE attitude.
TN l933-he pointed out-Congress
i passed an economy act author
izing President Roosevelt to reduce
the annual expenditures of the fed
eral government by half billion
dollars.
When the reduction was made,
Mr.. Bricker recalled, -FOUR
FIFTHS of it was AT THE Elk
PENSE OF THE VETERANS"
The pensions of SPANISH
AMERICAN WAR VETERANS
were reduced by S125, 100000.
Pensions of the aged VET
ERANS OF THE CIVIL WAR were
reduced 10 PER CENT.
New regulations made by Mr..
Roosevelt REMOVED thousands of
WORLD WAR VETERANS from
the benefit rolls and EXCLUDED
thousands more of them.
Total expenditures for all vet
Grams were about one billion dollars
a year under the Republican admin
istrations which preceded the New
Deal.
President Roosevelt reduced the
total by about S450,O0O,O00 in his
ECONOMY" measures: and the total
reductions which he made in the
POLITICAL DEPARTMENTS of
the government amounted merely to
some $3.50, 900, 000-or only ONE
THIRD of what was taken away
from the veterans.
ESIDES that, as Gov. Bricker
ID also explained, PRESIDENT
ROOSEVELT REPEATE Oily
USED THE POWERS OF HIS
OFFICE TO OBSTRUCT THE
ENACTMENT OF VETERANS
