Disabled Soldiers Neglected Exploited Forgotten The Public should be heard from in no uncertain terms ATITHOUT the courage of conviction vv to speak aloud upon injustice, mal administration or incompetence a news paper is false to its trust. For 119 years, News Value and Journalistic Merit have been charac teristic of articles appearing in The New York Evening Post Since its establishment, in 1801, successive generations of Americans have formed the habit of depending upon its columns for facts. The New York Evening Post is an independent, not a partisan, news paper. It will consistently follow the course of presenting facts and its utmost endeavor will be to see that these facts are fundamentally sound, uncolored by partisanship or personal feeling. Such an occasion has now arisen a most important "Draft upon the country's honor" has been dishonored. Every American with red blood in his veins should read Harold Little dale's articles on the treatment accorded our disabled ex-service men. It is your fight they fought. They paid in blood and agony. Condi tions shown are intolerable. It is your duty to learn the facts, which public demand must change. , "With due regard to its responsi bility to its standing as a conserva tive and non-partisan publication and only after very careful investiga tion, The New York Evening Post is printing a series of articles on the utter failure of the officials charged with the duty of so doing to pay this "draft of honor," in so far as the re habilitation of disabled soldiers, sailors and marines is concerned. Articles of great interest are usu ally "syndicated" (allowed to be re printed) at a price. But this is a subject for neither commercialism nor delay. The information should reach every American citizen possible from Maine to California. And to this end The New York Evening Post will reprint the first six or seven articles immediately, and will supply them at half their cost, in any quantity, to individuals or organizations. ($2.50. a thousand.) All claim to "copyright' is ex pressly waived. Newspapers are urged to reprint Upon request we will even supply "mats" without charge to those newspapers which will aid the boys by so doing. Send two postage stamps for a copy once read, you will need no further urging. Better yet, send for 1,000 or 5,000 copies of Littledale's reportpass them on to others. Give copies of the report to your Congressmen, your Senators, and your Mayor to your clergymen, your local editors, to members of the American Legion and other patriotic societies. Condemnation destructive criti cism, so richly merited, must be fol lowed by a plan, some plan your own plan perhaps that will bring order out of chaos. Public opinion must be aroused. Read the facts. Investigate the situation in your own town, and let public indignation not subside until incompetence and gross neglect have been succeeded by the sort of treatment these boys have earned that was nmmionJI u.. !.. , ...v..
