SPANISH-AMERICAN war veterans
of Portland and veterans of th Fil
ipino insurrection and the Boxer rebel
lion will hereafter be entitled to treat
roent for mental, riervoua and itubercu
lous ailments and diseases in hospitals
of the Pacifio Northwest under the di
rection of the United States Veterans
bureau. :. This is a. new move on the
part of the government announced to
day by Kenneth L. Cooper.-local man
ager of the bureau. r Heretofore no spe
cial provision had been made, for hos
pitalisation of these American , War vet
erans. . V . - ' . --j-': .. :,..'
An important feature of the new rul
ing is that these veterans are not re
quired to show, proof of service origin
of their disabilities, , Mr. Cooper said;
Honorable discharge and physical ex
amination showing present condition of
the veteran are the only requirements
for rehabilitation in government Insti
tutions occupied now entirely by World
war veterans, ho said.
Hospitals - in the Pacific Northwest
district under the jurisdiction of the
Veterans' bureau are located In Taco
ma, Portland. Boise and Walla "Walla.
Application for hospital treatment
should be made by Spanish-American
war veterans and service men of the
other two' conflicts at the local office
of the bureau ln the Myler building. It
was announced.

War veterans of Portland who filed
claims for dental disabilities due to war;
service before August 9 of this year,'

are eligible-for dental treatment at th
expense of the' government even
though the degree of disability is less
than 10 per cent This announcement
was. made; today by the' local office
of the United States Veterans' bureau.
Interpretation of the law governing
dental treatment has been ln .question
for some time. The definite ruling
stated - that "where, the war veteran
makes his claim subsequent to August
9, or after' one year 'from discharge,
he is not entitled to government treat
ment unless service connected disabil
ity Us of 10 per cent or more degree.

Efforts to force the bouthern Pacific
company to grant a lower fare tal

cently, asked -to cut the one-way fare
to 15 jcents Instead of 21 cents,, to cor
respond with the fare on the P. R. L.
& P. company lines directly across, the
Willamette river. General Pasenger
Agent Scott suggested a : conference,
but' was called away from -Portland
and the representative he sent, was
not empowered to make any promises.
The city- has refrained from :-, granting
a motor-bus franchise in order to in
duce -the Southern Pacific to keep up

Portland would ' fee practically the
same as the- present railroad fare,
which is the top notch war-time fare.

that Oswego Is entitled to as good
