The com- | mitee states that single men are not | being given any relief and that the statement of Mayor Walker that “we | will not allow the veterans to suffer | unnecessarily, etc. is only election | talk and that the single veterans are not included even in that.” | In 50,000 leaflets issued by the joint | | organizations the following demands | to be made upon the city authorities | are listed: 1, We want work. 2. The relief we get ts due us— it is not charity. 3. There shall be no stopping of relief when getting temporary work (total income not to be less than total relief received previous to getting work). 4. No changes in relief without a hearing—case not to be closed daring hearing. 5. More new cases to be heard dally. 6.

The administration of relief to be placed in the hands of a Committee elected directly by the unemployed working-class veterans as the only means of stopping graft. “The attempt of the American Legion to ‘feed’ the disabled and un- employed veterans and their families on problematical beer is a smoke- | screen to cover the retreat of the Legion on the bonus question,” the statement of the joint committee con- | tinues calling on veterans in” the American’ Legion to fight‘ for actual money relief.
