The report is sent out by the national head- quarters of the American Legion at Indianapolis, Indiana. Of this number all of whom were interviewed, it is shown that without the aid of the federal gov- ernment for hospitalization, 25 would be dependent on_ state, county or city for treatment. In some cases the care of wives and children would also be involved. A summary of the situation in ‘the State of Florida shows that nine inmates of the Marine hos- pital‘at Key West are drawing ompensation from the govern- ment, six are receiving disability a pension, and 26 are not receiv- ing any kind of compensation whatever. Of the entire number, 37 are married and there are 42 children with 73 dependents on the veter- 9 partially dependent. In the event-of the government with- drawing support seven would be completely dependent on charity. Theré are but five in the insti- tution that have other income than that received from the government and for: drawing retirement pay. Another phase of this problem, which it is well to keep in mind, the report shows, is that the money that is spent on ‘the disabled either in hospitalization or some form of compensation, helps not only the veterans and their. de- pendents but likewise benefits business conditions, because the money is spent for food, clothing and other necessities. | The report shows the amount of payment by the federal gov- ernment for Florida veterans and the number of Florida veterans re- ceiving them for the 12 months ending June 30, 1932, as follow:) Disability compensation, 3,943 veterans, amount $2,231,548; dis- i | allowance but not one is drawing | frequent visitors.
