Letters from
Statesman Readers
To the Editor:
Tour naoer has been so hon
estly fair and so decently hind
to the Spanish war group that
we
can only take exception to
of your editorials with re
one
gret. Reference is had to mat
part of the item la your Issue
of July 20 reading:
"Spanish war veterans also get
better consideration In a new
presidential order, which author
ises payment of f 50 a montn to
veterans with 80 disability. It
they can show need."
If this could be true It would
mean food to nearly ion tnnu-
sand men and actual life to-many
et them, but. K seems Impossible
for this reason:
The Veterans' Administration
has already apportioned, the en
tire CI million allowed, the Span
lsh war group and It would re
quire around 20 million dollars
more money to provide funds suf
ficient for the nearly 100 thou
sand men who would gain by it.
There are over 12 S thousand
Spanish war men over 50 dis
abled, well over halt of them are
actually In need; the rate of pen
sion to those under total disabil
ity is 180 a year: the Increase
would be 420 per year to a
minimum of 0 thousand men
and probably nearer 100 thou
sand, so It Is readily seen that
somewhere from 25 to 40 mil
lion additional funds would have
to be found.
Wonderful news If It could be
true, but let us hope the poor
devils, whose very life depends
on something of this kind, do
not place too much dependence
on any such action for the re
action would be hard to bear.
It should not be forgotten that
service connection was success
fully established by less than 2,-
000 Spanish war men and their
