He discussed the present veterans administration bill now before the state legislature which would put entire cdntrol of . all . veterans' problems in the hands of one man. He explained what he considered are serious mistakes in the proposed legislation, ; The Lebanon post voted, to get In touch with the delegates from this section of the State and urge its defeat. Commander Gotch had with him a copy of the protest sent ' of the Cottage Grove post against the passage of the bill. He called attention to, the fact that service ' officers of the American Legion, the Veterans of Foreign Wars and the Disabled War Veterans as well as the Red Cross are rec ognized by the federal ; adminis tration for veterans affairs and have given voluntary service most of it paid for by the veterans own ' organizations. This care by the veterans associations assures in terest in the servicemen's prob lems and without cost to the state , and without political implications. Camp Adair Site Sagrested Commander. Gotch also talked about leprosy as one of the dis eases likely to be contracted by men now fighting in. regions where . that disease prevails. He said that after hearing the matter discussed at the national convention he was ' interested enough in the problem ' to visit the leper colony in Louis iana which he says is situated on a low, marshy part of that state where a well person would soon get sick. . J Britain has ja better place, he said In Rhodesia they, have an . 18,000 acre tract where lepers can lead nearly normal lives although . segregated. In this country there is only the old idea of hospitaliz ing them. This is another problem to be considered by the .veterans' organization sand he suggested that such tract as that at Camp ' Adair might be set aside for such colonies. Plans : for the new memorial building sponsored by the Legion were shown, front elevation and floor plans. All service organiza tions in town are to be asked to cooperate in , the building of a veterans' memorial building and if satisfactory support is gained for the project it is believed that : the city council will allow it to be erected on the park property.
