MEDFORD. MAIL TRIBUNE, 1IEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1933, PAGE FIVE VOICE PROTESTS ( Contributed.) Veterans and members of veteran families, who are being denied pen sion, compensation and hospitaliza tion benefit as a result of existing legislation, are urged to communicate Immediately with members of con gress from this district. The appeal is voiced by Command er I. D. Canfleld of Crater Lake post No. 1833, Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States. Commander Canfleld predicts that the wrongs in flicted by the new veteran regulations will be overcome In the near future 11 members of congress are suffici ently Impressed with the sad state of conditions resulting from adoption of the government's economy pro gram, and It pertains to disabled ex service men. Every veteran who ha been noti fied that he Is to be deprived of ail or a portion of his compensation, should write a letter Immediately. As voters and taxpayers, It is their ducy to voice their protests directly to those who were elected to represent this district In congress. Every member of the house and senate who voted for these drastic reductions In veteran benefits also voted to deflate the purchasing pow er of this community. He also placed himself on record as being in favor of an Increase In local taxation for the relief of veteran In need. Every member of congress who sup ports unfair legislation for veterans publicly proclaims himself as being ! opposed to the prlnclpls that veteran welfare Is a responsibility that be longs to the federal government. He i would place thla added burden upon i local municipalities, counties and : states to increase taxes In order to : provide these relief funds. The state j of Oregon, by the so-called economy act, loses three million dollars an nually that formerly came Into Ore gon from the federal government. Hie money was from federal taxes paid by the money class and went into the hands of the merchants of Oregon. Every patriotic citizen, and every man or woman who recognizes 'Ae need of relief from oppressive taxa tion, should make known his protests without further delay. Every buil nesa man or woman owes It to him self and to his employes to Insist tiiat . the expense of caring for. disabled veterans must be assumed by the federal government. Men who have served their, country In time of war ; responded to the call of the federal government. Their sacrifices were made in behalf of the nation as a j whole. The responsibility for their welfare today, when they are in need Of relief and assistance. Is rlghtfiiUv 1 a:i obligation that belongs to the ; government lteelf. j OWEN D.
