The system was devised to enable veterans who wanted their money at once to get it by cas! their claims at_a discount. Many Fail to Apply Whether or not payments from the fund will be completed in 1928 re- mains problematical, however, since over 5,000 veterans entitled the honus have never made appl for it and a few claims still are being received at the adjutant general's of- fice.

Only recently a claim was received for the maxi- mum allowed under the North Da- kota law. It was filed by a man who had served 31 months in the army from the beginning of the war until he finally was returned to America und discharged. Payments for each of the last four yeurs have exceeded the million mark, the money being provided by a one- mill tax levy. Since the maximum atate tax levy is four mills one-fourth of all the money raised by the state from general taxation during the last six years has gone into this id.
