Blanchard Soldier's Cause of Com-
plaint.
Among the hundreds of Centre
countians who enlisted for service in
the world war was James G. Eagan,
son of Mrs. Mary Eagan, of Blanch-
ard, who served asa private in Com-
pany L, 108th infantry regiment of
the 27th division. He not only got
to France but saw considerable hard
fighting until he had his left arm shot
off. He carried war risk insurance
but the treatment he has received
since his discharge from the service
has not been of the kind that leads
him to throw many bouquets at the
war risk insurance bureau, and assum-
ing that his story, as told in a letter
to the Philadelphia North American
and published on Sunday, is correct,
he is entitled to hurl brickbats at the
Washington burcau and ought to have
the assistance of every patriotic mem-
ber of the American Legion in helping
him. Kagan says:
“I was discharged from the United
States service on March 29, 1919, by
reason of my left arm being amputat-
ed at the shoulder joint.
“At date of my discharge I was giv- |
cn a temporary allotment of $30 per !
month, which I drew until July 10,

Brief Meeting of Borough Council.
Joseph Thal appeared before the
regular meeting of borough council on
Monday evening and protested against
the increase of his water tax from
$8.45 to $12.75, claiming that the in-
crease was out of proportion to the
water used. He also demanded that a
meter be put on his house and then he
would pay for just the amount of wa-
ter he used. Secretary Kelly asked
M:. Thal as to the number of rooms
in his house and the various water
conveniences and they figured up to
$12.25. The matter was referred to
committee and borough
manager for investigation and adju-
dication.
