COUNTY AID FOE SOLDIERS
The rights of needy ex-service men,
to receive aid from counties is cle
aned and upheld in an opinion by-
Attorney General Sorensen to a resi
dent of Alma.
"If your county is not performing
its legal duty in caring for needy
ex-service men," says the attorney
general, "I suggest that you call the
matter to the attention of the offi
cers of some of your local veterans
organization, such as the American
Legion or Veterans of Foreign Wars,
and I believe with their help you
will secure the necessary assistance.
I suggest also that you consult your
county attorney about the legal
phases of the matter.
"If your county is following the
pjan herein outlined it is doing all
that the law requires in the way of
aid to ex-service men as the law
does not require public officers to
give a preference to ex-service men
in hiring employes nor does it speci
fically prohibit discrimination against
them, altho it is hard to imagine a
public officer so lacking in patriot
ism and in feeling of gratitude to-,
ward defenders of his country that
he would wilfully discriminate
against them merely because they
are ex-service men."
The opinion states that under the
law the county board is required to
appoint a soldier relief commission !
consisting of three men who have
been honorably discharged from the
military service of the United States.
On the second Monday in February
this commission meets at the office
of the county clerk and whenever
necessary and makes a list of per
sons and fixes the amount of each
person is to receive and estimates
the probable amount of fund3 need
ed. The county board in June shall
make a levy to raise the amount,
not to exceed three-tenths of a mill
per dollar valuation oi taxable prop
erty in the coifnty. After the fund
is feady for distribution the county
clerk shall issue monthly warrants
for the amounts awarded.
RAN INTO SNOW STORM
Mrs. Leland Briggs, Mrs. Guy Mil
ler and Fred Kunzmann, father of
Mrs. Milier, had an experience with
bad weather conditions Thursday as
they were coming by airplane from
Winner. South Dakota, to this city
The plane struck a snow storm near
Creightcn and at one time had to go
4,000 feet up to get out of the snow
and clouds.
Mr. Kunzmann had difficulty in
standing the high altitude and it was
necessary to bring the plane to a
lower level to relieve him. The party
finally drove out of the storm and had
fine sunny weather for the remainder
of the way into Omaha. The party
landed at the Omaha airport from
where Mrs. Briggs and Mr. Kunz
mann came on to this city, while Mrs.
Miller was taken to Excelsior Springs,
Missouri, in the plane. She will visit
there with relatives for a short time.
The plane was taken back at once to
Winner and later will make the flight
to Excelsior Springs for Mrs. Miller,

Washington. The American Phil

gtes, has determined to find out

tribute to the protection of these "se-
curities" of the United States against

The problem has been. referred to
a stamp illustration committee, des-
ignated by Mr clarence Hennan,
presjdent of the society. It Is coni-
po3ed of Col c g Hamilton of the
General Staff of the United States
Army, possessor of the premier spec
ialized collections of stamps of Mer-I
ico; Col. Spencer Cosby, U. S. A.
retired, a specialist in early issues
of Italy and France and other Med
iterranean states, and Mr. Mayo J
Dudley, journalist, collector of the
stamps of Hawaii and Chinese treaty
ports.
Illustrations of United States
stamp except details or the border
and frame, is now absolutely pro -
hibited by provisions of the federal
penal code. Illustrations of foreign
stamps are permitted in black and
white if the plates from which the
prints are made are defaced. Im
portations of foreign stamp cata
logues, albums and other publica
tions in which the ; illustrations of
stamps do not conform to these rul
ings are barred from entry into the
United States. And cnly those cata-
erican buyer at great additional ex
pense do conform, it is'pointed out.
"Great Britain, France, Italy, Ger
