Later. he voluntered as a soldier in the A, E. ¥. and was killed in France. The widow appealed for aid. by a letter addressed Lo President Coolidge. The President forwarded | the letier to the Veterans' Bu ¥ with 2 request that offort be made to rvescue the widow and family. Cables directed all consuls near the post of- fice whence the appeal had been made to seek the family. Within' four davs they were found and brought to the consulate, whence they were brought to America. A soldier who had lost his memory wandered from his home and was lost for two vears. He was discovered in Australia _and brought home with 32,000 cash in his pocket, which he could not account for—money he had acquired in Australia. Another case of aphasia was that of 4 veritable “tramp.” picked up in Canada by the Canadian Soldiers’ Civil Re-estublishment, which corre. onds to our Veterans' Bureau. }le was identified #s a hizh officer in the United 10 his friends. A most cordial reciprocity ice exisis between the Canadian and American bureaus for soldler reliet, euch looking after the needs of the natives of the other. There is no such agreement of reciprocal service with France or Italy, as each country prefers to handle its own cases through its consuls. Not long ago, a British naval man died in_ Washington. and four hours | before his funeral a friend appealed |to the Veterans' Bureau for aid in curing a Britlsh flag with which to drape the casket. It was procured trom the British embassy, where, by chance, vas discovered a Scotch “buddy” of the deceased. He was permitted to don his Highland uni- form and to attend the funeral as the only direct mourner. Even upon such short notice the Veterans' Bureau was able to provide «n American fir- ing squad 10 give the soldier-salute above the honored grave—a tribute The measure provides Wralization certificale sons who served in the 1 Army, Navy or Marine the World War and W discharged from such whose naturalization papers were de ared invalid by reason of their race | or place of birth, be now declared | valid. 1t prov further “with- in a period of 12 months m date when this amendmenfs becomes ef- fective, @11 such aliens who were hon- orably discharged from the United < Army, Navy or Marine Corps s # vesult of services or enrollment during the World War and who are Gtherwise -aualified for admission to The United States under the law” shall be admitted above the regular quota This amendment would give another vear's grace to alien zoldiers of any hationality for returning. at their own expenge. Therc are sald to be some advocates who desire this Government 1o pay the transportation, on the ground that it transported other sol- diers home after the armistice, and is obligated to transport all back to their places of enlistment. In reply, it is pointed out that the armistice was eight years ago and that no soldier was discharged in Bu- rope -except at his own request, and not until 18 monthS ago was the quota law in effect restricting re-entry of all who so desired. For more than six years the door was open, and while It was natural that foreign-born Veterans would desire to visit their old homes and friends, such visits| could hardly he construed 1o cover a voluntary stay of six years * ow X ates wps during uzh Lo of shat ‘v > of werv- < to there Leing more than ‘23,000 eterans of the American expedition- ary forces still in Durope. as is al- leged. official statistics from the War Department indicate that there have been. only 16,000 applications for the soldiers’ bonus from veterans in Bu- | vope. Of these, 4,800 were American- born—mostly descendants of foreign- born narentage. Hence, there were in the A. . F. only 11,200 foreign- horn pon-citizens who remained in Europe. Of these 11,200, many have returned to America, and many more have de- cided to remain in Burope. All could have .returned to America without legal obstacle prior to June 3, 1925— six years after the armistice.
