Obsen'er: Having met you in connec

that 1 could address you upon a sub

self and many other Oregon Veterans.
1 am a newspaper man by profes-.-.

soldiers out of Pierce's sanatorium.
To tho. c of us who have families, J
iriends and relatives ill Oregon, this
was a tragedy.. Efforts were ma.ic
to induce highor officials to change i
the order, but no results were ac- J
complishcd until Colonel Forbes came
here last fail, and Ralph E. Williams, J
thc National Republican Committee'
man from this state, took the mat-

institution where-the ; -soldiers are
given the same high class treatment
as is given to private patients. Dr
Pierce, as you no doubt know, is one
of the leading authorities in this
countiy on tuberculosis, his sanator
ium is conducted along most modern
lines, and his. efforts show a very
high percentage of cures. He has
a sufficient number of highly trained
nurses to insure the men every pos
sible attention.
After several months' treatment
my condition was so improved that

I am a candidate for the nomination to the office "f

termination to close thc place to hoi

made to continue keeping soldiois in

has been more than double j. . .',
When you stop to think that most
of us veterans are young men with-
