LEGION HEADS PLAN CENSUS OF EX-SE VICE MEN Each Soldier to Be Asked His Desire Regarding Compensation. MEETING HERE JAN 20 A census of all World War veterans In the United States to determine what form of Federal compensation each man prefers Is to be arranged at the most important meeting of the American Legion ever held between national conventions. At this meeting, to be held In Indianapolis, Jan, 20 and 21- Hanford MacNider, national commander of the legion, will present plans for Interviewing every ex-service man to determine his desires as regards the five-fold adjusted compensation scheme set out In the pending "bonus” bill in Congress. By determining in each Instance whether cash payment, paid-up Insurance. vocational training, aid In buying a home or aid in settling land is preferred, the census Is expected to be of vast assistance to tfco Government in making provision for compensation settlements. It will determine, It is pointed out, the extent of the immediate demand on the cash resources of the Nation. The canvass, which also will Include ex-servtce women, in addition to giving an accurate perspective of the so-called bonus situation, is designed to pave the way for speedy adjustment of claims or the veterans against the Government. The question of unemployment, too, will come In for a goodly share of attention by the convention. PRESIDENT TO BE REPRESENTED. C. K. Forbes, director of the United States Veterans' Bureau, Is coming to the meeting as the personal representaI five of President Harding and Judge K. M. Landis is booked as one of the speakers. All State commanders, adjutants and National executive committeemen; chairmen of standing committees and National legion officials are to attend. The census will be known as a service and compensation campaign and Is modele dafter the “lowa plan,” successfully used in that State, when Coxh- ; mander MacNider was head of the State legion organization. After approval by the convention, it is Intended to undertake the census at once. The country will be divided into districts, with a , legion committeeman to supervise. Dis- * tricts will be small enough so that thorough canvassing can be assured. Legion volunteers will work under the direction of the committeemen and will visit every house and interview every veteran. Canvassers also will ascertain how many veterans will lend their compensation payments money to a genera! fund to be administered by the legion, out of which loans would be made to disabled, unemployed or needy ex-service men. Commannder MacNider in recently announcing this new plan, expressed the belief the revolving fund would total several million dollars. CONSIDERATION OF AM, CLAIMS. Every one who has a claim of any sort against the Government is to he assisted in presenting it and obtaining quick settlement, under the census plan, and veterans will be asked to tell what they desire the legion to accomplish. This latter phase of the program is expected to be of immense assistance to the national organization. As to unemployment, some means will be devised whereby the legion can assist nationally in placing ex-service men in jobs. Plans will he adopted for further assistance by the legion in the rehabilitation of veterans. Important committee reports to be presented include: Report of the Oriental committee which has spent months in an exhaustive study of the question of Mongolian immigration and particularly the Japanese problem on the Pacific Coast. Report on the subject of memorials in the United States to soldier dead. Report of the committee in charge of a proposed memorial in honor of the late F. V/.

GAME WARDENS ARRESTED 198 Report For December Shows 179 Convictions. Game wardens of the State conservation department In December made 138 arrests which restated in 179 convictions for violations of the fish and game law’s, George X. Mannfeld, a conservation department official, says. Three defend ants were acquitted and sixteen cases remain to be tried. Total fines and costs assessed against the 179 convicted persons aggregated $4,237.00. Mr. Mannfeld points ont that in December 1920, the total arrests numbered 123, convictions 123, and fines and costs totalled $2,788.10. The December 1921 record shows an increase of 73 arrests, nr, convictions and $1,449.50 in fines and costs. In an itemized list compiled by the fish and game division of the conservation department, it Is noted that twentyone persons were arrested In December 1021 for hunting on Sunday, sixteen for hunting wit h ferrets, fourteen for digging out of holes fur-bearing animals, twelve for possession of illegal size fish nets, ten for hunting without permission of landowners or tennants, and six for possession of ferrets without a permit. One hundred and eight persons were arrested for hunting without licenses. A surprising feature of the month’s work, Mr. Mannfeld says, is that three persons were arrested for killing deer •when it was generally believed these animals were extinct in this State. These animals, officials believe, escaped fr>m parks or reservations and probably were pets. They were killed in Montgomery County. Records for the first three months of the new fiscal year, which began Oct. 1, reveal a total of 757 arrests, 746 convictions, and fines and costs assessed amounting to $16,582,05. For the same period a year ago arrests totalled 357, convictions 541, and fines and costs amounted to $11,433.21. The gain for the three months this year over the similar three months period of last year Is 230 arrests, 256 convictions, and an increase ct $5,148.84 in fines and costs. SATI RE FTiEAKS.

Clarason and Miss Dora Monell have kept thoir ‘‘rendezvous with death” and suicide has written "finis" to a romance which could not endure separation. Clarkson, a chauffeur for Mrs. Elsie G. Monell of St. Louis, the mother of his sweetheart, ended his life twenty-four hours after Miss Monell swallowed poison and died. The police and relatives are convinced that a suicide pact : existed between them. Clarkson took i poison in St. Louis while Miss Monell | ended her life in Chicago. ! The couple eloped from St. Louis last ; week and came to Chicago. Mrs. Monell traced them here and, after bitterly up- ! braiding Clarkson who was married j although separated from his wife, and j threatening him with prosecution under ; the Mann Act, induced tlie girl to ! promise to return home with bar. En j route to the station Miss Monell drank i poison and died while being takun to j a bosplial. | Clarkson returned to St. Louis and j there learned that his sweetheart bail | killed herself. After writing a note to his father , iu which h>- asked forglvenes and told his father “not to blame anybody” Clarkson drank poison which he said he had taken away from Miss Monell. He was found dead in aa alley near his home.

EMBANKMENT AT NEW BRIDGE IS ALMOST READY Hoosier Motor Club Reports Need For Michigan Road Improvement. Construction of the big earthen em- j bankment, leading from the north end ; of the new White River bridge on the j Michigan road, is near completion, ac- ! cording to announcement, from the tour- j leg department of the Hoosier Motor Club today. It is stated this fill was made necessary ; because of the greatly increased height j of the new bridge as compared with the I old, and the embankment will form a levee ' across the White River lowlands at the j foot of what was once known as “Mich- , Igan Hill,” considered In the earlier days of motoring as a “test” hill for the power j of motor vehicles. With the new fill, it Is stated, there is little hill left and the incline will te more like a boulevard. The bridge Itself Is completed, with the exception of the pavement. Concrete paving now extends from the west end of Maple Road voulevard at Crown Hill north to the bridge, but no paving can be done on the bridge or on the embankment to the north until next spring, until such time as the new earthwork has become , fully settled. Tip •e- way now extends from tl: ■ hill north for about two mib . is understood the remainder of the highway will be paved to the Marion County line in the spring. Inasmuch as the Michigan road was established in 1832 and has a 100-foot right-of-way nearly the entire distance to South Bend, through Logansport, Rochester and Plymouth, with scarcely a turn in it, there has been much tlon in an effort to get the State highway commission to adopt tt us part of the State highway system. The recent announcement that the State commission is to extend its system has led to renewed hope on the pare of Michigan road boosters. The motor club reports because of lack of attention this roadway is in poor condition for. the most part, except in the northern section of the State, where a hard surface roadway recently has been completed. WOMAN SKATER KILLED BY PLANE Pilotless Aircraft Plunges Into Crowd on Ice. RED BANK, N. J., Jan. 16.—The plunge of a pilotless airplane into a throng of skaters, on the Shrewsbury River, which resulted in the death of a woman and the serious injury to a man who tried to save her, was believed ly investigators today to have been caused by an unexpected opening of a home-made throttle. The airplane, in which James Casev. ex-Anny aviator, was giving joy rides from the ice yesterday, leaped over its restraining blocks when the pilot whirled the propeller to start it. A gust of wind turned the roaring plane straight toward a group of nearly 3.000 skaters w2o had gathered to watch the start. The plane cut down with its whirling propeller Mrs. Anna Ilounihan of Red Bank, who had been skaiing with her husband and two children. Her brother, Lawrence Conley, who leaped In front of the plane to push her to safety, lost his forearm in the whirring propeller. Casey was arrested, charged with manslaughter, and held in $1,600 ball.

GOVERNOR SAYS HELPING HAND NEED OF FALLEN Urges Assistance to Restore Former Prisoners to Places in Society. Former prisoners should be assisted In returning to their places In society rather than be treated as outcasts, Governor Warren T. McCray told members of the men’s and women’s Bible classes at the Memorial Presbyterian Church yesterday. He pointed out that many young men have become good and useful citizens after leaving correctional and penal institutions The average age of prisoners in the institutions of the State is continually growing less, the Governor said. He said the average age at the State farm is 21 years and that the average at. the reformatory is only slightly higher. He said this fact is an Indictment of society. “Good influences about these young offenders will lessen crime,” he said. "It will require all the help that the good citizens can lend to remedy the situation. I feel that if, when these young men come out of these State Institutions, they can be made wards n some way of such clubs as the Rotary and.Kiwanls, or come under the guidance of some religious organization. it will be easier for them. We can not permit them to go with looks of scorn and distrust cast upon them. They need all the helpful atetntion society can give them. The first year or two after they get out is the crucial period of their lives." The Governor also defended the parole and indeterminate sentence systems. NEWSBOY NOW MAYOR.

810 EMEUS m KIDNEY TROUBLE Take Salts at first sign of Bladder irritation or Backache. The American men and women must guard constantly against Kidney trouble, because we eat too much and all our food is rich. Our blood is filled with uric acid which the kidneys strive to filter out, they weaken from overwork, become sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and the result is kidney trouble, bladder weakness and a general decline in health. When your kidneys feel like lumps of lead; your back hurts or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment or yo'u nre obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night; if you suffer with sick headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid stomach, or you have rheumatism when the weather is bad, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful jn a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithin, and has been used for generations to fl'ush and stimulate clogged kidneys; to neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer is a source of irritation, thus ending bladder disorders. Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot injure, makes a delightful effervescent litbia-water beverage, and belongs in every home, because nobody can make a mistake by having a good kidney flushing any time. —Advertisement.
