At that dinner many prominent Legion men, congressmen, state, county and municipal officers were present Through arrangements with the Westinghouse Radio corporation, the addresses and entertainment were broadcast by the powerful wireless station KDIvA, so that Legion men all over the nation heard the tribute to their comrade. Board of Appeals to Hear Numerous Cases of the Central Board of Appeals of the Veterans bureau, Increasing membership of that body from seven to seventeen In order to expedite cases presented, was first proposed by the American Legion, officials of that organization declare. About 12,000 cases have been heard annually by tlie reviewing board, but tlie Increased membership, it is believed, will permit nearly 50,000 cases of disabled veterans to be presented. Another change advocated by the Legion and recently put Into effect by Director Frank T. lllnes, has been the establishment of a finance division in the bureuu and separation of the disbursing and accounting sections. Reorganization Legion Boosts Good Roads session of the Missouri state legislature to consider plans for extending the road appropriations has been sought by members of the St. Louis county council of the American Legion. In a letter to Governor Hyde, tlie Legion men declare that they learned the value of good roads while In France, and that ns tlie condition of many roads In that state Is deplorable, steps should he taken to both expedite and extend the road building Under the proposal made program. lv the Legion men, authorizing of nd ditional funds would provide a complete system by 1928. A special Way to Aid Disabled One man's contribution to service funds maintained by the American Legion in Marshalltown, la., practically made it possible to curry on post work for disabled during tlie year. Dad Everist, ns tlie Legion men affectionately call him, owns and operates a string of filling stations in that city, and one day turned over his places for the Legion men to handle, giving them the profits. Gas sold at a low figure on that date, and many nutoists took advantage of the opportunity to stock up. and thereby all the Legion's work. The National Rehabilitation committee of the American Legion anticipates 1924 as a most active year, according to the views of Legion officials and others Interested In service work performed by the veterans organization. The work will be under the guidance of Watson B. Miller, formerof tlie orly national who has accepted the ganization, of the rehabilitation chairmanship committee, and who has given up bis law practice during that time in or der to perform this service for the World war veterafts. Anticipated work of the Legion committee this year resolves Itself Into approximately six general classifications. While the Service Division" of he organization at national headquarters has been closed in accordance with the mandates of the fifth national convention, and ail claims will be bandied through the committee in Washington, there are certain other definite phases of the work, particularly legislative, which face the committee. Further decentralization of the United States veterans bureau Is one of the principal Legion alms during the year. Director Hines has already announced a similar policy In regard to many of the recommendations of tlie organization, and further suggestions are expected In this direction. Completion of the hospital building program Is another step which will be urged. A bill already Introduced In congress at the Instance of the Legion asks that an additional $5,000,000 be appropriated to rush these projects to completion. General liberalization of many bureau rulings, especially those affecting admission to the government hospitals will be sought. One of the points to be urged will be the Increase of dependency compensation for widows and children of deceased men, on which special legislation Is expected at an early date. Extension of hospitalization privmen, without ileges to all regard to origin of the diseases or disability, as resulting from or by war, said to be favored by veterans bureau officials will, however, become the principal objective of the Legions committee. up there?"
