Hospitalization, medical treatment and nursing for all honorably dis- charged soldiers and.navy men of the world war who are disabled, re- gardless of the origin of their dis- ability, is provided for in a bill In- troduced yesterday by Representative Joseph W. Byrns, democrat, of Ten- nessee. This service is to be available when recommended by any reputable prac- tioing physiclan. Regarding the ne- cessity for this legiglation, Mr. Byrns suys: umerous cases have come to my attention where ex-service men have been denled treatment because they were unable to furnish positive proof to the Veterans' Bureau that their disability is of service origin. In many cases these boys were unable to pay for proper treatment. In my judg- ment this treatment should be given whenever practicable in the locality where the ex-gervice man.lives. There are now, however, 9,500 vacant beds in government-owned hospitals which would be available if required. “Certainly physical rehabilitation is even more necessary than vocational rehabilitation and the country’s obli- gation demands this consideration for those who served under its flag.” Representative Byrns, is the rank- ing democrat on the priations committee and thoroughly famillar with the accommodations available in government hospitals, as well as familiar with the appropria- tions made for other rehabilitation work “House appro- et The distinction of being the oldest actress on the American claimed for Elizabeth Leroy one years of age, who is noy ing in a Broadway production.
