The French War Certificates issued by the French. government to relatives of the “Yanks” who fell during the war will be given at the conclusion of the memorial services, ASK MILLIONS FOR DISABLED WASHINGTON, D. C. —EKightyfive million dol- lars are nought to pre pare for the disabled for- mer service men who are expected to report back to government hospitals for further treatment This estimate has been based upon a report of Dr. W. C. Rucker of the Bureau of War Risk In- surance, and has been in cluded in a bill now be ing considered by the house committee on pub- le buildings and grounds. According to Dr. Ruck- er, at least 641,000 for- mer service men and women, who wero dis charged or rejected with mental or physical de fects, are potential hos pital cases. Sometime between naw and the year 1968, when no more dis ability cases will be left, these men and women will report for medical aid and it is for this emergency that the public health service has asked $85,000,000. During the next two years, officials say, 23,400 more hospital beds will be needed than are now available. According to the estimates, the cases are double the beds in number, but no patient ts expected to stay longer than «lx months on the average According to statistics of the war risk bureau, the greatest number of neuro-psychiatric cases re- turning for aid is sched uled for the years be tween 1927 and 1929, when about 66,000 patients will require 12,000 hospital beds. About 17,500 insan- ity cases are expected in 1929. Jug ts no word for the army hoosegow. It re minds a fellow too much of what used to be. REINSTATEMENT IS MADE EASIER Under a new ruling issued by Director R. G. CholmeleyJones of the war risk bureau, regard- lens of how long it may have lapsed or how long the former service man may have been dis charged, he may be rein- stated any time before Juty 1, 1920, ‘The conditions are: 1. Two monthly prem- jums on the amount of insurance to be reinstated must accompany the ap- plication. 2.

To do this the Legion posts will noufy the authorities of the sanitoriums in theif districts and the costs for each patient. This will enable the placing of patients nearest their homes and at a cost of not more than $3 a day for each. “The old idea that tuberculasis patients must seek a high altitude and a dry climate has been found to be wrong,” said Dr. Rupert Biue. “Ex. pert care, the solace of friends and rélatives, fa millar surroundings and & contented spirit are of greater importance than climate. “Patents requiring specialized treatment, such as only large and re- sourceful institutions can provide, will usually be advised to enter a public health service sanatorium.

Music and Democracy BY DR. FRANK CRANE (Copyright, 1919, by Frank Crane) New York City has set apart a week for Music. There will be all manner of singfests and choral gatherings. It is an example that ought to be followed by any city in the United States. For Music is fundamentally allied to Democracy. There can be no Music, as there can be no Democracy, tvithout organization. It is the soul of team play. It is the life breath of co-operation.
