Address Box 248, Plattsmouth Nebraska A NATIONAL DISGRACE Many who read this would have died on the battlefields of France, "of been permanently crippled, had it not been .for the American soldiers .'now known as "disabled veterans." I They stopped the enemy and his bullets. That shortened the war- emiei jt before more of the folks , back home were drawn into the cas i'nalty ltets. The lucky ones who came through the war uninjured are enjoying peace. But the war goes on forever for the disabled soldier. In most cases his battle will last until his death. And it is a battle that he is fight ing largely alone. More than three years have pass ed since the armistice. The disabled war veterans, far from enjoying the 'comforts that are rightly theire by a 'laws of decency, again are com- pelled to fight for fair, square treat- The details of this fight are being xoia in me news colums or tue uany papers. The situation discloses gross neg iect and an almost criminal stupid ity in mishandling the disabled sol diers. It is becoming an old story. And it is shadowed by talk of "national in gratitude." There is, however, no ingratitude. The American people ore fully aware of the tremendous debt they owe tbeir crippled and maimed war heroes. The American people stand ready to foot the bill whatever is neces sary to give these men a square deal. Responsibility for this national disgrace is somewhere in Washing ton. Pot will call kittle black. The buck will be passed freely between con gress and the Veterans' bureau. The unscrupulous will coin politi cal capital out of the situation. After all is said and done, the real trouble Is nothing but red tape and stupidity. It is unbelievable that any American official or representative is voluntarily throwing obstructions in the disabled veteran's path. What is needed in Washington is a little common sense. In all the history of our republic, there never has been as black a dis grace as the neglected disabled veter ans. The public refusing to believe that Uncle Sam's efficiency has fallen to' iero. demands .action, fast and thorough. :e: ORDER OF HEARING on Petition for Appointment of Administrator.
