100000 Checks
Sent Veterans
Each Month

Lack of adequate self-identifica-
ton on correspondence from veter-
ans is one of the major headaches
of the Veterans Administration.
The VA Central Office in Wash
ington, DC, receives 125,000 pieces
of mail a day. Because of mistakes
and omissions $500 letters day
require extra work for proper iden-
tification.
Every month the Treasury De-
partment sends out nearly three
million checks to veterans and their
families for pensions, insurance
payments and other benefits. Fifty
six thousand of these checks go back
to the Treasury because the recipi-
ents no longer live at the address
listed, and the checks cannot be
forwarded to another postal dis
trict.
The VAS master index file con-
tainS the names of about "a million
veterans of World Wars 1 and II
who have carried insurance or ap-
piled for benefits. There are 228,000
Smiths. Thirteen thousand are
named John and 5000 of these have
no middle initial. Also on the
rolls are 10000 Johnsons, 10000
Browns, 10000 Millers, 100000
Joneses, 5000 Rodriguez and $500
Rodriques
Veterans must identify themselves
by full name, permanent mailing
address, service serial number and
&C" number or insurance number.

A man known as "the cruel Duke
of Alva" rose to high place among
the soldiers of Spain. He lived while
Henry VIII and Queen Elizabeth
were ruling England, but his battles
were on the continent of Europe.
Born in Spain 436 years ago, Alva
joined the Spanish Army at an early
age. He seems to have been only
IA years old at the time he entered
the service
The youth soon showed that he
was an alert soldier, and he rose in
rank as the years went by. After be-
coming a general, he proved his skill
in one war after another.
In Italy Alva went too far tc
please his royal master. He fought
his way to the gates of Rome, driv.
ing the soldiers of the Pope aheaC
of him. Philip later ordered him tc
give up the lands he had conquered
and to make an apology to the Pope
Shortly afterward, the people o1
the Netherlands rose in revolt
against their Spanish masters. Ques-
tions about religion were mixed with
this revolt. The Netherlands, at
that time, included the land in both
Belgium and Holland.
Alva was sent to the Netherlands,
and Dut down the rebellion in much

treatment of the people. BY his
order, a Court of Troubles" was set
up. The popular name for this court
came to be the Court of Blood"
While Alva was in command in
the Netherlands more than $4,000
persons were put to death. besides
those who died in battle. This
cruelty was too much for the EN-
peror, Philip II. Alva was taken
| from command in the Netherlands
and a better -natured man was put
in his place.
Now the Spaniards tried to keep
peace in the Netherlands by giving
better treatment to the people, but
| it was too late. The cruel deeds Of
Alva had famed flames which kept
burning for 10 years. Spain lost
hundreds of millions of dollars ir
the long struggle.
| Toward the end of his life, the
Duke led Spanish armies into Portu-
gal. He still had his old skill as &
general and quickly whipped the
Portuguese. He died in his 74tf

4Opening lead, ten OF diamonds.
West has hit the trail. It's going
to- be extremely difficult to induce
him to double any one from now on.
Yesterday, hand was shown in
which, holding a side ace and a
K-Q-5 of trumps behind the declarer
he was unable to defeat contract
of five diamonds doubled. The hand
shown above was the very next one
dealt in the recent Ontario proyin-
cial championship at Toronto.
This couldn't happen to me
twice in the same set of boards" he
announced as he doubled the final
contract of four hearts, after his
partner had made vulnerable over
call at the level of two. After a
slight slip in the defense at trick
one, the defenders were helpless
against South's plan of attack.
The ten of diamonds was opened.
ducked in dummy and permitted to
hold. Had East overtaken with the
jack and cashed high diamond the
contract could not have been made,
but West was in and shifted to the
jack OF clubs. This was taken in
dummy and the ace and king of
spades were caShed, South discard
ing a diamond. A spade was ruffed
in the closed hand. A low heart was
then led toward dummy and the ten
successfully finessed. The ace OF
trumps was caShed and the last
spade ruffed with the seven of
hearts. A club was then led to the
ace in dummy, and club returned
which East won with the queen.
East then played the ace of dia-
| monds upon which South played
the club, but since West had MOTH
ing but three trumps left he was
obliged to ruff and lead from the
90 into declarer's XII.
East was up with his usual COM
plant. Partner, you took only one
trump trick, and you had to trump
my good ace to do it."
