Delano Post, No. 6, | December 1. i e W An attempt will be made by the | American Legion at the forthcoming | session of Congress to obtain an amendment to the World War vet erans’ act which wil force the United | States Veterans' Bureau to furnish | hospital treatment to all World War | veterans requiring hospitalization, re- gardless of the origin of their diseases lities, according to Watson B. Miller, chairman of the Legion's na- tional rehabilitation committee. Mr. Miller intimated that the Legion would receive the active support of Gen. Frank T. Hines, director of the bureau, in this effort to further lib- eralize the law in the matter of free governmental hospital treatment for honorably discharged soldiers and sailors. At the present time the law permits the bureau, in its discretion, to furnish this free hospital treatment if beds are available in Government institu- tions. The bureau has now reached a point where this free hospitalization must be curtailed, or it will be necessary to immediately construct or acquire additional hospitals to take care of these so-called *‘non-service-connected cases.” According the Mr. Miler. the Legion's attempt to seek a further liberalization of the law in this respect will bring out the attitude of Congress on the subject of general free hospital treatment for veterans. In other words, Congress will reveal whether it | is willing to provide the additional fa- cilities necessary to make actually ef- fective the authority it has already given the Veterans’ Bureau in the hospitalization of non-service-connect. ed_cases. _From nearly every section of the TUnited States, veteran groups and or- ganizations are said to be pleading for more hospital facilities to take care of the constantly increasing number of mentally il World War v ns | whose disabilities are jus show | ing_up.
