so that these in charge of our insti

institutions and who know the needs
of all. can intelligently plan to meet
tnose needs, emciently and. com
pletely, and npt be crippled by hav
ing to limit their expenditures to

In my judgment a levy should be
made at this time wh:ch will return
a fund adequate to mett the growing
needs or tne institutions and money
enough to start on an extensive scale
the work of rehabilitating should be
appropraited. Plans for the recon
struction and upbuilding of the var
ious institutions should be prepared
under a competent engineer and
architect with these plans looking to
future expansion. The work or re
building should in many cases be
pushed as rapidly as possible so that
economies can be had in operation,
but such work should not be done
until plans can be perfected looking
to the ultimate end.
Personally I do not feel that any

system of rehabilitating disabled vet
erans of the war is denounced bv the
American Legion as a "failure"
jvhich should be remedied by consol
idating under a single head the three
government agencies now engaged in
that work. This charge and the re
medial suggestion presented by the
legion today to President Wilson,
President-elect Harding and to every
member ofHxjth houses of congress
in a memorial directing attention to
the "suffering, shameful neglect and
injustice which the legion asserts
marks the administration of the af
fairs of the war veterans.
Col. F. W. Galbraith, jr., national
commander of the legion, personally
delivered a copy of the memorial to
Senator Harding at Marion, where
Colonel Galbraith had -an appoint
ment to discuss Vwith the president
elect the legion's program for the
disabled men.
Must Consolidate.
The leg4on asserts in the memorial
that the function ot the three agen
cics which now deal withrfhe soldiers
who require their country's care, the
bureau of war risk insurance, the
federal board for vocational educa
tion and the United States public
health service, "must be co-ordinated?!
their machinery decentralized and all
hree placed under the common con-
tiol.
"To do this, the memorial says,
At . . ,
mere must oe a new law wnicn
slftlf place the unified organization
under a single administrative head."
For this new organization the legion
asks an appropriation sufficient to
Lirv. build, eouio and enlarge hospir
tals sufficient to provide facilities for
ail the men now tinder hospitalreat-
hnent , ,
It fs announced that the legion
has sent copies of the memorial to
000 legion speakers in all states
who have volunteered to endeavor to
focuS the attention of the nation ofi
the situation of the disabled men.
United States Has Been Liberal.
The memorial asserts that the
United States has been more liberal
than any other nation in its pro
visions for the disabled soldiers, but
that it has failed in a large measure
to make these provisions available.
J his is attributed to an -astonishing
sttte of divided responsibility and
wasted effort among the governnent
agencies with which the problem
rests.
"The result is .the suffering of the
disabled veteran. -Thousands are
waiting and have waited for months
for an opportunity to re-establish
themselves as self-sustaining mem
bers of society by vocational train
ing, ihousands are m need ot nos-
pitalizat.on and the government has
r.o hospital facilities 'available for
them, bixteen thousand beds are
to such an exent that when a war
veterans compensation ' is shifted
from the bureau of war risk insur
ance to the board of vocational edu
cation there is a delay of from three?
weeks to two months, during which
"jo provision is made for the man's
maintenance."
"A recent Survey of conditions in
a tubercular hospital had disclosed
that about 75 per cent of the patients
had received no compensation and
were in a wretchefl state of anxiety,"
said the memorial. "Some had left
the hospital in their weakened con
dition to trjr to work and support
their familfcs, because the govern
ment had failed to do so.
"The United States public health
service acts as an agency of both the
bureau and the board, but is respon
sible to no authority common to
both, because there is not such au
thority.! There is a clear br:ak in
the chain of responsibility."
Declaring that it ' is remarkable
that the rehabilitation system ha- ac
complished "what little it has," the
legion attributes this to the sincer
ity of the men employed in the three
agencies, who, it says, "generally
have made the best of an impossible
situation." .
tions Must Improve Before
Trade Between U. S. and
- Xlountries Can Improve.
Washington, Jan. 10. Better
trade conditions bttween the United
States and South America and the
far" east cannot be expected until
low rates of exchange and labor con
ditions in foreign countries ' have
been improved, according to a sum
mary of world, business made public
today by the Department of Com
merce. The statement was the first
of monthly summaries the depart
ment will issue. V
In practically every ''country of
South America and the far east im
ports have fallen in the last few
months and money has become v?ry
hard to obtain, cablegrams to the de
partment said, i
Australia was ( reported to be
awaiting lower prices before buying
much in the American markets. v
Jap Situaior Tense.
The Japanese financial condition it
most "unsatisfactory," Commercial
Attache James F. Abbott cabled
from Tokio, and he predicted a se
vere drop in the Japanese exchange
rate. Mr. Abbott' reported banks
have tightened the money market by
raising rates. Japan, he said, rnished
the year with a large balance of
trade against it and there are large
stocks of unsold goods in ware
houses. The general stagnation of
business, he said, has brought "about
a situation which will result in the
cutting of wages. -
Failure of many business houses
in China, is foreseen by Commercial
Attache Julean Arnoldrat Peking,
who cabled that the ancient Chinese
custom of paying all debts, on the
new year, February 8, will force
many places to close.
India Overstocked.
Low exchange rates has resulted in
an overstocked market in India, ac
cording to Commissioner C C
Batchclder, at Calcutta.
Argentine exports and imports
have dropped, while the money mar
ket has become very tight, Commer
cial Attache Edward G. Feely, at
Buenos Aires, repotted. December
failures doubled those of the same
month in 1919, and many others
were threatened, he said.
In Chile, both exports and import
were reported to be decreasing and
the exchange rate is unimproved.
Great care should, be exercised in
granting credits, the department
was advised.
. Venezuela Hard Hit.
Venezuela was reported as still in
the midst of a financial decline.
Commissioner Bell cabled that !
many European business houses, in
the face of the unfavorable financial
situation, are establishing agencies
in Venezuela.

forthcoming more will die. destitute,

out compensation with which to ob

, Taking up the three government
agencies dealing "with the disabled
men, the legion memorial asserted
H that the bureau of war risk, insur
ance-had never accomplished its
vital object of making jilst and
prompt awards of compensation. It
pointed out that the burden' of proof
was on the disabled man who was
thus placed in the position of a
man injured in industry who must
sue the company and that when he
attempted this the only aid he could
obtain was from the Red Cross, the
legion or some private agency.
It is usually months after he is
dropped from the payroll of the
army or navy before he is taken up
on the payroll. of the bureau, says
the memorial. I "On November 26
last 83,000 cases were pending in
the bureau await ng adjustment of
compensation. Thousands are suf
fering and many have died as a re
sult of this vneglect."

that the passage of the Fordney,

retaliatory measures and would
breed unfriendliness to American
trade amohtf foreign nations was
given today by the witnesses before

As a result of the testimony, it
fwas expected tonight that members
of the United Mates tariff commis

Chairman Pemose said members of
the comm-'ssion "will be on hand
tomorrow to acswer.any questions."
The committee will conclude its
hearings tomorrow. Senator Pen
rose announced, and it is planned on
Friday to take up the bill in execu

The chairman said he understood
there were amendments to be con-
s'dered but he did not know what
the attitude of the committee would
be or to what extent members
W,ould seek to change the measure
as it passed the house. v
Discussion' of the possibility ofN
relation, however, brought from
Senator Pepro.sc the comment that
"it is the first time I have heard the
question of probable relation so
clearly stated. Predictions of re

today with strong opposition and in
