INTEREST TO
DISABLED VETERANS
HARDMAN
v
Giving scores of disabled veterans
of the Pacific Northwest permanent
compensation, a new move on the
part of the United States Veterans'
Bureau establishing medical rating
boards throughout the district for
the purpose of awarding permanent
partial disability ratings is proving
not only a benefit to the injured ex-
j service man but will also be a money-
saver for the government, according
to L. C. Jesseph, northwest district
manager of the bureau.
More than 100 disabled veterans
have already been given permanent
partial disability ratings, meaning
permanent compensation from the
government and eliminating the need
of periodical physical examinations,
he stated. Approximately 2,000 men
will be called in for examination be
fore the rating boards finish their
work. Boards have been named at
Seattle, Tacoma, Spokane, Portland,
Walla Walla and Boise.
"Disabled ex-service men receiving
notices to report for examination be
fore one of these boards should make
it a point to do so at the time desig
nated," said Mr. Jesseph. "This pro-
Friday, October 19, Lexington'3 Sram 01 awarding permanent corn
second football team played a return 'pensation to veterans with partial
game with the Hardman team. Hard- disability ratings is one of the most
man lost, the score being 13 to 0 in important and far-reaching moves of
the visitors' favor. The Union high tlle Veterans' Bureau since its for

the visiting team. After the ban injured ex-service man whose dis

On the same evening a surprise
party was giivien on Mrs. Brook,
houser, one of the town's popular
women. Most of the high school
students and their guests went tr
this party after their own school
social was over. Everyone had a
pleasant evening.
Everett Hadley was lost Friday,
October 19, while out hunting in the
mountains. He was found Sunday
afternoon, cold and unconscious. He
is recovering.
Bill Miller has been very ill for
the past week. Pneumonia' is said
to be. the cause of his illness.
cause he will receive a permanent in
come ranging from $10 to $100 a
month. The government, adminis
tration costs will be lightened be
cause the men will not have to be
examined at stated times."
Mr. Jesseph stated that veterans
given permanent ratings may have
their compensation increased in case
their injuries are aggravated but no
reductions can be made under the
present rulings.
Rewara of the Cane
No man who carries a cane can be
elected to public office in Oregon.
We lay this down as an axiom of
Oregon politics. A cane confers im
munity upon its twirler. It elimi
nates him automatically. Ben W. 01
cott found that out. He began to
carry a cane, very privately, while he
was governor. So th,e Curse of Cane
was upon him. The editor of The
Voter always carries a cane, very
publicly. Thus he is removed from
temptation to become a candidate for
anything, knowing he is doomed to
defeat. We note that Robert N.
Stanfield is carrying a cane. Ore
gon Voter.
ORKUON ROY RIDES ZEV,
