MAIN AND BROACWAY
OLD SOLDIERS
FILE FAST UNDER
TDE NEW LAW
THEY ASK FOR PENSIONS AT
RATE OF 20,000 DAILY—
450,000 ELIGIBLE.
(Clyde H. Tarenner.)
Washington, June
o* 75,000 applications for increased
pension under the new law, which
became effective May 11, have been
lued with the commissioner of pen.
then sent to the legal department
o'. the bureau, where experts care-
fully examine them. If found cor-
rect they are sent to the division
in which they belong, after which
the "evidence" iu each case is look-
eu up. The claims are then accept-
ed or rejected, as the case may be.
after which the applicant, In the
event his claim Is accepted, 1s put
on the rolls at the increased rate.
If his claim is rejected, the appli-
cant Is immediately notified, and
told wherein his application Is faul-
18— Upwards ty' or ot any other difficulty that
may have arisen in his particular
case.
There is one section of the new
law that is misleading, and may
alons, and It Is expected that the have the effect of building up hopes
applications will continue to arrive among some of the old soldiers that
at the rate of about 20,000 a day they are going to get the maximum
until all of the 450,000 old soldiers rate of (20 a month, regardless of
still this side of the final roll call■ their age or length of service. This
have been heard from. As soon section provides that in the event
as the applications arrive they are the soldier Is so disabled by reason
time-stumped and sorted. They are of hla wounds that he is unfit for
manual labor, he will receive $30
a month. The word "unfit" has
been Interpreted as meaning totally
disabled. The new law reads the
same as the old one in this regard.
Under the old law a soldier who
was unable to perform any work
whatever could get $30 a month
upon furnishing proper proof of his
disability. The new law does not
change this section a particle.
Under the new law It is simply
the age and length of service that
will determine the rate. A soldier
may have served two years and
been shot nearly to pieces, and yet
he won't receive any more under
the new law than bis comrade who
wasn't injured at all while serving
the same length of time. Age and
length of service alone are the qual-
ifications under the new law. Any
old soilder however, who was wound-
ed in the war, and who is unable
to perform any labor because of his
wounds, should apply for the maxi-
mum under the old law gives unless
his age and length of service gives
him the maximum of $30 a month
under the new law. In other words,
there is nothing in the new law to
prevent a soldier from applying un-
der the old law, providing the new
law doesn't give him as much as
he is entitled to under the old law.
In all except a very few appli-
cations thus far filed, the ages given
by the old soldiers range from 64
to 90 years. Only a very tew under
the first figure, so it is seen that

Those of the old soliders who
have not already filed their appli-

law should do so * at once, as the
law provides that the increase, when
allowed, shall date from the date
of filing the application. It is dol-

applications in early.

have become wrinkled, and their hair

REMOVES THE CAD5E
OF CATARRH
No remedy that does not entirely remove tile ennse of Catarrh from the
blood will ever make a permanent cure of the trouble. Just „* l„lllf ,ls {he
circulation remains.contaminated with the impurities a.t.l catarrhal matters
which produce the trouble, the mucous membranes or inner linings of the
body will be kept in a state of irritation and disease. Sprays, lotions and
other local applications will sometimes temporarily relieve the tiriit full
feeling in the head buzzing noises in the ears, uncomfortable, stuffy fe^litJ
of the nostrils, and help to loosen the mucus in the throat; but Catarrh is a
constitutional blood disorder and until it has been entirely driven from the
system there can be no permanent cure S. S. S. cures Catarrh by removing
the cause from the blood. It attacks the disease at its head and bv thor
oughly purifying and cleansing the circulation, and ridding it of everv naJ
ticle of impurity and at the same time enriching the blood, allow, the
inflamed and irritated membranes to heal, improves the treneral health

bottom and leaves no trace of the disease in the system. Book
