TOREVIEN CLANS " Y WOUNDED VETS ,800-Ex-Fighters in This Stae * ot by Ruling BY GEORGE H. MANNING. (Wasbington Buresu of N. B. Herald) | Washington, D, C., Oct, 23,—Hope I8 held out to_about 5,300 Connectl- out veterans of the world war by the Disabled American Veterans na- tional organization that the U, 8. | Veterans' bureau will play Santa Claus to them. Several thousand veterans soat- tered all overConnecticut who were maimed or had thelr health im- paired while in the service are af- tected by the agreement reached by Director Frank T. Hines, of the Vet- erans’ bureau, and Frank J, Erwin, of New York, national commander of the Disabléd American Veterans, whereby an eéxhaustive review of more than half a million disallowed claims of former service men is to be made, The gigantic k of reopening so many cases has,” in fact already been started and a thorough exam- ination of the filles of the bureau has been begun, at the suggestion of Commander Irwin, to reyise the rat. ings of all men who should come within the benefits of the Reed- Johnson bill passed by congress last June which liberallzed the regula- tions governing the operation of the Veterans' Bureau. . Commander Irwin, at a conference he had with Director Hines, pointed out many vetérans whose claims were rejected before the bill was passed were unfamiliar with its pro- visions, and an educational campaign is to be undertaken so all veterans having just claims against the gov- ernment may take whatever steps may be necessary under the new law to insure their getting what is coming to them, Inefficiency Under Forbes Commander Irwin said there were + undoubtedly cases which had been permitted to remain dormant by the claimants either because the latter had become discouraged by enforced delays or some other fault in the pdministration of the Veterans’ Bu- reau in the days when Charles R, Forbes was director. There were many other cases, he added, which ‘would be shown to be not sonly meritorious, but to have been disal- lowed. although the claimants were entitled to either eompensation or Beauty A Gleamy Mass of Hair 35¢ “Danderine” does Wonders for Any Girl's Hair Girls!

It was to determine once and for all, Commander Irwih further ex- plained to Director Hinesm, how many disabled or sick veterans whose [clalms were rejected really had a Just kick coming, that he asked for the sweeping review the director ugreed should be made as speedily and carefully as possible, The review iy the first of a serles the administration of ns' cases Commander organization is secking to bring about, it was stated further, The review will reach into every soction of the country, and the total of cases already selected in the dif- ferent distrigt offices for careful in- quiry, as announced today, follow Philadelphia (third district embrac- Ing_Pennsylvania. and Delaware,) 19,015; New York city (second dis- trict embracing New York, New Jer- sey and Connecticut) 27,689; Cin- cinnatl, 24,875; Bosten, 17,90 Washington, 17,319; Atlanta, 31,61 21,667; Chicage, 2 13,679; Denver, 7,252; San Francis- co, 9,811; Beattle, 8,303; and Dallas, 19,104, In addition there are a total of 266,211 disallowed cases pending in the central office ‘of the Veterans' Bureau here which it is also planned to reopen, Many of them are believ- ed to involva Connecticut veterans, too. Many weeks may be consumed before the last of them is disposed of finally, but both Director Hires and Commander Trwin. agreed the task undertaken ' would bé well worth while, no matter how long or difficult, if the veterans got their Just deserts. PUBLIC OFFICIALS 0. K. “FORGET-ME-NOT” DAY Many. Governors Will Yssue Procla- mations in Behalf of Disabled ‘War Veterans Disabled American Veterans of the World War have received ad- vices from National Commander Frank J. Irwin of the wounded and disabled veterans' national organiza- tion, that governors of practically every state in the United States have readily agreed to issue proclama- tlons, endorsing “Forget-Me-Not- Day,” and calling upon the citizenry of thelir respective states to support the nation-wide movement in the in- terests of the nation's disabled veterans,on Satftday, November 8, In those states where a proclama- tion will not be issued, it is expected that an official message or state- ment will be made public by the governor on the eve of “Forget-Me- Not Day.'” National and state leaders throughout the country have tendered offers of hearty co-opera- tion for the success of “Iorget-Me- Not Day,” which will be observed in this city, and several hundred other communities in the country, to aid the nation's wounded and dis- abled veterans in legislative, re- habilitation, hospitalization and re- lief matters. Little forget-me-not flowers, made of cloth or other materials, by corps of disabled veterans, girls and women workers, and others, offering their services to assist the wounded world war veterans, are to be sold on the strects and in buildings and public places, Pretty girls and prominent women of the community will distribute the forget-me-nots, working in teams and companies under the direction of §helr leaders and captains throughout the eity. The entire proceeds of the day's activities will go towards the relief and welfare of the disabled Ameri- can veterans, and in assisting them in their ambitions to once more be- come useful, self- reliant citizens of the nation for which they made many great sacrifices.

Booth, | of New York, president of that or- ganization, the principal speaker, A. C. Bedford of New York, as chair- man of the speclal meeting, -also had a cablegram from Owen D. Young, who helped frame the Dawes plan and acted as temporary agent general of reparations prior to the permanent appointment to that post 8. Parker Gllbert, Jr., outlining the progress of its operation, “The ease with which the ma- chinery under the Dawes plan has Mr. Young, tion during the past six weeks In the best testimony of the existence of a new spirit determined to restore tranquility in western Europe. In advance of any assurance of a loan, Germany has pald in the last six weeks more than $30,000,000, most of which in one way or other has been distributed to the creditor countries. “Now that the loan is completed and the proceeds. put under the control of the agent general, practi- cally all of the funds are in hand for the first year's operation of the Dawes plan. Nothing could be more helpful to the restoration of con- fidence and, hope to the discouraged people of Europe than the magnifi- |§ cent expression of confidence by the American people as shown in their over-subscription of the German loan.” Mr. Booth, who recently returned from Europe, expressed the opinion in his prepared address that three major problems must be solved if complete rehabilitation is to be brought about. These, he set forth, include deter- mination of the aggregate amount of German paymerts for reparations; a consideration of the debts from one European country to another in their relation to such reparation payments, into which, later, when a proper foundation is 1aid, ha thought the debt,of these countries to the United States wilt have to enter, and the transfer of obligations of Ger- many to the credit of creditor na- tions under reparations in the form of currency designated by the lat- ter. The ‘work of rehabilitation, Mr. Booth asserted, has only begun with the adoption of the Dawes plan, and because interests of the United States must be prepared to face continually increasing responsibili- | ties as-the structure rises from this foundation.
