April 0. Declaring that Ike Amcricnn Legien was net itntlsfled with the facilities for hospitalization of dtrabled war veterans, and that "the 'success of the whe'e syMem of voca tional training still Is in the balance," A. A. Sprngun, chairman of the Lo Lo Le teon's Rehabilitation Committee, today Msertecl that a recent statement by the United States Veteran' Bureau of the work It was doing "conveys impressions tbtt mar be misinterpreted or mis tued." Mr. Sprnctie said the bureau's state- WM of the work done, signed by C. It. WOtDtB, director, was true, but he de fared that "no statement should be out by the eterans Bureau fbleh would give the Impression that UM bureau or tee Government is n TMBafacter' te the sick and disabled M-service men." Mr. Bprague asserted that while a tare amount of money Is paid te dis abled service men, the "general public ntstt realize that the enlisted personnel ei both army and navy Insured them Mtm against death and accident. In ljftny case men subtracted one-fourth f tfctlr pay for this purpose. Debt en Part of Government "Whatever money the Government ay spend ever that which came from (S pockets of the men who were the khaki and blue is a clear debt en the art of the Government, nnd any at tempt te take credit for paying it will be resented, net only by all ex -service men, but by all fair-minded citizens. "The statement with reference te hospitalization is restricted te number of patients and cost. It li fair te tell the general public that neither the Vet erans' Bureau nor the American Legien has been satisfied with the facilities ' for hospitalization of these men. "Of the 30,000 ex-service men new la hospitals, nearly one-third arc still In contract institutions. Thousands of mentally disabled men who would have been cured or partially se, with proper care, ure still kept in State Institutions under conditions which are distressing te all these who believe that they can be cured. "Thousands of tubercular men have been held back by unsatisfactory treat ment. Seme, within the latt few weeks, have been sent back te county peer farmB, instead of Government hospitals. Vocational Training in Balance 'In addition the success of the whole system of vocational training In still In the balance, in spite of immense sums paid out, because of lack of proper supervision and co-erd Inatieu. 'The statement that the -United States is already doing mere for Its disabled veterans than any ether coun try In the world is net borne out by our treatment of our Insane ex -service men. "The majority of our United States ' mental canes of ex-service men are sent te or 'farmed out' te contract hospi tals, these being chiefly State Insane asylums. "Ne ether country has done anything like this. But in this country, with our enormous wealth, we are tne ones ""' ' 'among the civilized nations of the world who have seen fit te farm out the care of the Insane ex-service men. "If we can prevent It, no one is going te put the complete payment of the debt which this country ewes its sick into any ether light than that of an honest ) debt en the part of the Government, a debt which this country will never be able te pay with real money nnd which can only be paid by honest apprecia tion, fair opportunity and real gratitude."

He is a tall, wiuaro-rlggeci man with crisp grayish hair, long, shaggy eye brown, even teeth nnd n wiunre chin. He wenrs n morning coat nnd waistcoat, striped trousers and a cravat that Is vaguely clerical. He speaks as one possessed of Infinite nntlcnce and toler ance for human foible. Although President nnd Mrs. Hard ing have been In Ills congregation for n geed many years, he could net tell very much about them, except that they were geed Christian people, and went te church regularly. In answer te a question Dr. Aber nathy said that Mr. Harding turned the 'eaves of his book when the hymns were announced, but ns te whether he actually sang he wasn't sure. Dr. Abernathy was the preacher who gave the opening prnjer at the late Conference en Disarmament, emitting by a request from the State Department the name of Jesus Christ. This aroused a geed deal of criticism and pretest from various clerics, although Dr. Abernathy cxplnlned that the gathering could net be called a Christian assem blage, since there were Buddhists, Mehnmmednns, Confucians and profes sors of ether non-Christian beliefs pros pres ent. Dr. Abernathy made the spiritual condition of the TTnlted States in gen eral the theme of his discourse. 1 "I have noticed a growing apathy en the part of the people n growing In difference.

Next week the men will start en n three days n week program, which will be followed until the end of the strike. This action was a disappointment te the empleyes, who have a vast amount of work facing them In placing the idle collieries in geed shnpe, but the company does net care te spend the money for this purpose just new.

J acting with the greatest coolness nnd taking the quick est possible course te save his brother. Harry Duer, who Is Just two years old, was running about the yard of his home, 813 Summit avenue, playing with his brother Frank, who is four. There is a cistern in the yard, used te take the waste water from the kitchen. The cover slipped and in Harry plumped. Mrs. Charles Duer, the mother, was at work in the kitchen. Frank had two courses open; one was te de the child ish thing and run screaming for his mother; the ether was te save his little brother himself, and ha chose the latter course. Lying en his stomach, he reached into the cistern nnd seized the baby by the cellar. Then he held en nnd yelled for some ene te come te his assistance. The water in the cistern was deep, well ever the baby's head, but Frank clung te him grimly. Several persons passed, but they did net hear the child's cries. Frank was getting weaker, "but he stuck te it; and finally Margaret Schraeder, the twelve-year-old daugh ter of a neighbor, passed by and heard the child's calls. Running into the yard, she reached into the cistern nnd lifted Harry out, wet, covered with slime, but none the worse. Then the boys went into the heuse te their mother. "I'm sorry mother," said little Frank. "I tried te held him up by his hands, but he squirmed se I had te held en te his cellar and muss it all up." Thoroughly exhausted, Frank curled up en the couch in the parlor nnd fell asleep at once, and slept for hours. By the time he awoke again the reaction had Bet in, and he wns a very sick boy all night. Today, however, he is fully recovered. It is certain the baby wan in ever his head, ns his cap, tied around his chin, was soaked when he reported te his mother for a change of clothes. Frank and Harry were plajlng about the sand pile In the garden of their home today. They went willingly enough ever te the cistern te have their photographs taken, but the cover has net yet been repaired, and when the baby stepped tee close te tbe edge Frank grabbed him, "Yeu were in yes terday, ' he announced.
