MORE VETERANS
— “INITIATED IN
THE LEGION

Godfrey Post Taking
Care Of All World
War Men Who Are
In Need -' '

Several candidates were initiated
at the regular meeting of the Frank
C. Godfrey Post. No. 12. American
Legion. last. evening. Trucks sent
out by the Post before the meeting
brought in the candidates.

At the meeting the Post declared
that. its service division was open to
all ex-service men having claims
against the government and that any
of these presented would be given
immediate attention‘ and further-
more that any veteran of the World
“'ar who was in need. sick or dis-
abled would be taken care of through
the State Aid Fund handled by the
Legion or the Post treasury.

In speaking on the above matter
this morning. Commander LeRoy D.
Downs stated it is the desire of the
local Post to take care of the veter-
ans who are in need or disabled.
They are first hi the minds of the
American Legion.

"We have taken care of many
cases in Norwalk in the past. but
wish to do more in this line.” said
Commander Downs.

It was announced at the meeting
that. the members of the Post would
meet at the Armory Sunday morn—
ing to decorate the graves. Cars will
be provided’to visit the various cem-
eterles.

Norwalk Police Station awaiting a

‘ scribed recently in the Evening Sen-

tinel as being made of heavy brass,
the ordinary marker is made of
pressed steel.

Apparently no attempt has been
made by the authorities to trace
the marker. It appears that. im-
mediately after the marker was
turned in. the local police got into
communication with the Ridgefleld
Barracks of the State'Police. They
told the state police of the find and
were assured that the latter would
make an immediate investigation

Average for Insurance
Policies Is Plaéed at
$962—Maximum
$1,900

CASH TO 389,583

Application May Be
Made at Any Time
Prior to January 1,
1928

WASHINGTON. Nay 21.—1t is es-
timated that 3.038.283 veterans will
be entitled to the insurance policies
providedby the soldier bonus blll
enacted into law Monday. while
389,583 will be paid cash of $50 or
less. The bill provides also for pay-
ment to dependents of deceased vet-
erans of the amount of adjusted ser-
vice compensation to which they
would have been entitled.

Adjusted service compensation is
figured. on the basis of 81 a. day for
home service and $1.25 a day for
overseas service. The first sixty
days cannot be counted. Also a
maximum of 500 days would be al-
lowed. _

All veterans up to and including
the rank of captain in the’ army and
marine corps and lieutenant in the
navy are eligible for the bonus.

It is estimated that the average
insurance policy would be valued at
$962, while the maximum value of
the policies would be about $1,900
for overseas service and $1,500 for
home service.

Determining \Vorth

. The value of the policy would be
the equilalent of the amount whlch
the adjusted service credit plus 25
per cent would purchase at regular
insurance prices based on 4 per cent
interest compound annually. To de-
termine the latter computation a.
table of factors has been compiled
by experts. Multiplication of the
proper factor by the amount of ad-
justed service compensation due the
veteran plus 25 per cent would give
the face value of the insurance cer-
tificate. Each certificate, of course.
would vary according to the length
of service of the veteran and his
age at the dateof issuance of the
policy. The policies would be dated
January 1. 1924.

Loans After Two Years

Application for the bonus may be
made at any time before January 1.
1928. but the cash payments will not
be distributed until after March 1.
19:5.

Loans may be made on the poli-
cies up to 90 per cent. of their cur-
rent face value any time after two
years from the date of issuance.
Thus on a. $1.000 policy at the end
of two years a. loan of $87.93 could
be made. On this same policy at
the end of nineteen years a. loan of
$831.23 would be possible. The loans
may be made *at any national or
state bank.

Service between April 5, 1917, and
July 1. 1919. may be counted in
computing the adjusted service
credit. although enlistment must
have been made before November
11. 1918.

Application blanks soon will be
distributed throughout the country
through service organizations and
the post offices. Although adminis-
trations of the bill will center in the
Veterans' Bureau, the veteran will
have to send his application to the
War Department if his service was
with the army and to the Navy De-
partment if service was with the
navy or marine corps. If the veteran
served in both army’ and navy the
application should be sent to the
department under which he last
served. >

Women who served as yoemen in
the navy or marine corps also were
included in the bill as eligible to re-
ceive its benefits.

~The bill stipulates that no one
shall be entitled to its benefits for
service as a civilian officer or for
membership in. the reserve officers

"The state has failed utterly to
connect up the fraud in Missouri
with the Connecticut Eclectic board.
There was no money passed between
the appellants and the Missouri
crooks. ’I thought. the state had
something when I came here but
I'll say to the world it was all a ter~

Attorney-General Healy. com-
menting on the action. stated that
had Arnold Brien, one of the appel-
lants decided to take the stand. he
had arranged for witnesses from
Massachubetts. New York and New
Jersey to refute his sworn statements
and may have preferred perjury
charges against several of the
others.

The state rcstcd its case shortly
before luncheon. after examining
Dr. Ralph Lewis \Vhite. of Darlen.
of the Eclectic Examining board. At.-
torney-Goneral Healy spent most. of
the time in asking Dr. White about
a check for $1.500 which was signed
by Dr; Robert Adcox, of St. Louis.
and presented as evidence before the
"medical" scandal jury, here last
fall.

the check from Dr. Adcox. alleged
head of the medical diploma mill.
Dr. \Vhitc stated that the money
was a. refund of money advanced by
him. (White). for the purchase of
an honorary degree from the Uni.
versity of Southern California.

Dr. Stanley 'H. Osborn. State
Commissioner of Health. was the
lone witness called in the behalf of
the physicans. He took the stand
after the state had rested its case!
for a. short time and was recalled
after the luncheon recess.

He was asked to testify concern-

ing Massachusetts and Connecticut
licenses, which he holds. Counsel for
the appellants claimed that he never
qualified for the position as com-
missioner but. Dr. Osborn agreed to
get his own applicajtlon for a mo-
dical license, now on file in the
State Department of Health.
. Hero counsel for the appellants
stated that no further evidence
would be offered and Judge Hol-
comb declared the floor open for
arguments, after which he set June
15 as the last day for filing of briefs
in the hearing.

In his argument. Attorney-Gener-
al Healy outlined the state statutes
revealing that persons taking me-
dical examinations must show certi-
ficates of good moral character and
must be graduates. of an eclectic
school. He claimed that none of the
five doctors, Isadore Yockelman.
.Arnold Brien. Gerald Richardson.
Maurice But-stall and Harry Chalm-
son. had their high school credits
approved as a preliminary to the
examination and that the members
of the State Eclectic board has testi-
fied that no investigation had been
made of the truth in their sworn ap-
plications. .

Got Diplomas in Day.

"The appellants never had pre-
liminary studies in biology and chem-
istry." he said. “Dr. Yochelman
and Dr. Chalmson were graduated
from St. Louis Allopathlc colleges.
and the others all went to allopath-
10 colleges still they failed to present
themselves for examinations before
the State Board governing these ll-
censes. They went to the eclectic
board." . ,

rohelman started in the game
early. when he was arrested for ob-
taining money on false pretenses
from a nurse in Massachusettsn Ac-
cording to his statements on the ap-
plication. he would have been three
years old when he was graduated
from the Imperial University at Kleff,
Russia.” '
