MORE ABOUT
VETERANS
(Continued From Page One)_
were willing to go so far as to amend
this bill in order to reduce the cast
if necessary to receive presidential
approval. We want immediate re
lief for these veterans. What the
disabled need Is Immediate and
material assistance and not a lot
of idealistic proposals which have
1X5 °hance of maturing for years to
come. The original Johnson bill
is not perfect, but It would give
needed assistance. Per fee ting
amendments could have been offer
ed later without endangering the
present approval of the basic
visions of the Johnson bill .
UNSELFISH ORGANIZATION
- “The Legion is a practical and
unselfish organization, Interested in
our disabled and our country alike,
and desirous of rendering service in
keeping with a conservative and con
structive program.
“It is our hope, therefore, that a
splendid piece of legislation will be
agreed upon as a result of senatorial
consideration, and thus make It
possible for our disabled to receive
immediately the benefits of such
legislation.
“The delay already has been too
long. In the name of the dead
whose memory Is sacred to us, and
in the name of the living heroes to
some of whom even death would be
a relief, may we asked that con
gress, that the senate and the house
of representatives, give these dis
abled heroes the same attention,
which the> American people on this
day pay to those who have passed
to their reward.”
