Mr. Stephenson started his address by saying that he had heard many arguments on the “Bonus Bill ’ or “The Adjusted Compensation Bill," but in all of these meetings he had not heard a word in regard to the word war. He said it was impossible to hold a sane discussion on the “Adjusted Compensation Bill” or other world probem without considering the late world war. He said on the 11th day of the lithe month of the year 1918, every one thought that the war was over, but it was not What were they going to do with the in- j jured ? What w-ere they going to do in the way of returning the soldiers to their well paid positions they held before enlisting? Little did the government know that the hardest part of the war was yet to be fought in their own country.

Baird Allen, lanky center on the lodge quintet, wu the outstanding offensive star of the game with eleven field goals to his credit. Art Kevins put up a scrappy defensive game for the locals. C. Buis, with three field goals and two throws from the foul line, was the bright light for Fillmore. Lineup and summary: K. of P.’s (34) Fillmore (18)

Mr. Stephenson said that it has been estimated by Government officials that the cost of Adjusted Compensation would be $83,000,000 dollars per year for the first three years, $66,000,000 per year for the fourth and fifth years and $45,000 - 000 for the next fifteen years. Thus j Adjusted Compensation could be paid and taxes reduced at the some time. The passing of this bill would dispel , the injustice felt by the ex-soldier?. I it would cement the veterans’ faith in the country and it would quicken j trade and industry because the money j will be spent in productive channels. All this can be done and at the
time reduce taxes.
