SAYS VETERANS'
- BUREAU REFUSES
AID TO THE SICK
Ashurst Declares Tubercular Ex-Soldiers
Required to Go Where
Directed No Belief.
Washington, May 6. An attack
on the veterans' bureau and the spec
ial senate hospitalization committee
was made today in the senate by
Senator Ashurst, democrat, Arizona,
who said that the "narrow, reaction
ary policy" of the bureau was that
sick veterans who had gone to Ari
zona could die there without aid or
go where the bureau directed for
treatment.
Senator Ashurst said more than
1,000 veterans suffering with tuber
culosis, who had gone into his state
believing that the climate there
would aid them, were in need of hos
pitalization, and that he had taken
the matter up with the president and
the veterans' bureau, but that little
relief had been given. He asserted
that the bureau offered to take care
of the men elsewhere, but that they
preferred the dry climate in Arizona
and New Mexico and refused to leave.

NO CHANGE IN COAL STRIKE,
Washington, May 7. Weekly pro
duction of coal apparently has now
struck "a temporary leel a little
above the four million ton mark,"
the United States geological survey
announced tonight in connection
with it's weekly summary of the in
dustry. Early reports for the week
ending May Gth. the statement said,
indicated that production of coal
would aggregate 4,lCiO,000 tons, ap
proximately the same as in the pre
vious week. Production wr.s con
fined almost entirely to bituminous,
it was declared, "production of an
thracite remaining practically at a
stand still."
Based on its reports of production,
the survey said, the strike situation
appears to be "essentially unchang
ed." "No significant break in the ranks
of the striking miners has occurred,"
the report declared, "although a
small number of men have gone back
to work in Texas. The number of
non-union men on strike has not
changed materially. The accumula
tion of unbilled cars of coal is slow
ly decreasing, but still is above nor
mal. "Demand is stiffening and the lat
est district to report improvement;
is the middle west, but the market
still is not active enough to call out
full production from mines remaining
at work. Consumption is being met
largely from storage."
CARD OF THANKS
To our kind friends and neighbors
we take this means of expressing our
deepest appreciation of their kind
ness and sympathy and to these
friends as well as the B. R. C. of A.

threshed and they were threshing to get bushels into the wagon rather
than grain from the straw.
Let the Fordson and Wood Brothers' Small Individual Separator
thresh for you this fall and the grain will go into the bin.
It is guaranteed to take the grain from the straw, under suitable
threshing conditions. '
When you thresh with the Fordson and Individual Separator, you
have an outfit that will thresh your entire small grain crop: wheat,
oats, rye, barley, Spelts, alfalfa, timothy, clover, Feterita, Lespideza,
Kaffir corn, Milo maize, and the sorghum crops. Thousands of owners
have indorsed the value of this equipment. We want to explain its
