W. Crawford, of Atlanta, commander of the Salvation Army in the Department of the Southeast in a statement Issued Saturday. While Brigadier Crawford is not particularly committed to any form of remuneration for the soldiers he declares his experience with former service men, thousands of whom including many who were disabled have been aided by the Salvation Army throughout the country, convinces him that in thousands of cases government aid in some form is absolutely essential while in hosts of others is would serve to make better and substantial citizens. Mfk- -A ? * iuc KUTrrnnirm snoiuu uo something for the millions of men to whom it entrusted the Salvation of the re* public," Hays Brigadier Orawford, "and it should not be put off by government red tape until the war with Germany has become ancient history and the men who took part in it are bent with age. ? "It is immaterial to me what form the government boons takes, whether it be A lump sum, a &>0 bond for each month's service, a land grant or a loan at small interest for buying a home or a farm. "However, if I have any choice at-a II, I believe I lean toward the loan for a home or farm. This would encourage men of a roving disposition to settle down and give them something definite to tie to, which they might not be able to obtain with years of hard toil. "I believe this would do more to allay rest than any other one thing.

RADICALS TRY TO OBTAIN MEMBERSHIP IN LEGION Indianapolis, Ind., March 21.?Warn,ng that radicals are trying to obtain membership in the American legion was given in u statement issued tonight by Arthur Woods, chairman of the National Americanism commission, from national headquarters in IndianapoliB. Mr. Woods said he had learned that the "reds" are seeking enrollment in the legion in an effort to learn what acthn-the former service nun's organ ization is taking against them and their politics. "No real harm, however, can bo done to the legion or its work of promoting Americanism by the presence in its membership of such persons," declared Mr. Woods.

Benson who warned ^ Admiral Sims "Don't let the British ^ pull the wool over your eyes," Sims do- B clared at the senate naval award hear- B ing today. 0 Several weeks ago Admiral Sims told {. the committee that this warning had 0 been given him during a conference at the navy department as he was about 1 to sail for Europe only a few weeks before this country entered the war. At the time Admiral Benson was chief of naval operations. At the P present time he is at the head of the ^ shipping board. a Reluctantly Admiral Sims divulged 8 Admiral Benson's name, after he was ^ twice requested by Chairman Hale, of * I the senate committee. u The instructions Sims alleged Admiral ' Benson gave him were "Don't let the * British pull the wool ofer your eyes. ^ It's none of. our business pulling their chestnuts out of the fire. We'd as soon light the British as Germans." Senator Pittman, of Navada, demo- ? crat, pointed out that the incident oc- . curred before the United States entered the war. x . In reply Admiral Sims said he knew g hs was being sent over because "we were going to enter the war." "No one else knew it," Pittman re- R marked sarcastically. "Your pre- t knowledge is perfectly remarkable." ^ Sims declared "We naval officers r made up oar minds on one thing; R that we would never go into another v war like we went into this one." The crowd broke into applause. j, FIGHT AT CAPITAL, BUT g NO NAMES AHE GIVEN 7 Columbia, March 22.?There's an interesting story told in Columbia about a hand-to-hand encounter in which 'a t) prominent state official participated. ^ The story is absolutely true.
