He Has Been Disillusioned
f thf F.titor of the Evening PutiHo Ltdoer:
Sir ui, not Indulge In any superfluous
utonlihment with reaard to the vtews of
Mr Hill of the lOSth Artillery (field or
ilouthnut, did sou eay, Mr. HIUT), but a a
formfr A 12 l".er of aome fourteen monthv
Mperlence In runny Trance. I hasten to
(Clare rlcht out loud, that a war without
homi would not Interest me In future.
I th not a drafted replacement In the
Twentr eighth Division. I enlisted. Aa It
liiownn, I never saw an hour of line ao
Hon, although I volunteered for Una duw
toon after reachlnr France, and my au
rerlor offloer wouldn't let me bo. All of
which doee not prevent ma havlns a few
theuints about wars, bonuses and patriot-,
lim. "paid" and otherwise.
riret, I am Inclined to agree with Mr.
Jllll inent the Legion. I know rather In
timately some men who worked with and
for the Legion at lta Inoeptlon. One ol
them, a publicity man with a conscience, has
no ue for the men who then tried, and are
till trlng, throujth predlgested publicity
nd canned propaganda, to control its think
lor He knows who paid the legion's early
tllli. and they are of a clique whose records
ire more closely Identified with Wall street
rd coupow clipping; than with any good work
nhlch may be labeled patriotic. In other
words, the war made them fat while it made
men like me and possibly Mr. Hill lean,
it lis st as to puree and, I rsgret to add, ae
te patriotism
But and In consequence, I am not seek
'ni to sit on a pale pink cloud of self-abne-cation,
renouncing all claim to the bonus,
while a few hundred war-mllllonalres and
how who had a head start on tbem, hire
irert accountants to enable tbem to dodre
ths taxes whirh we exserlce men psy to
ih :t farthing
"laki nil ou get and grab for more,1'
la a motto that did not originate In the
trenches and the other mudholes of Franca.
One of the beat was to show our dollar
"orahirlrg nig-wavers how to forget the
recemty of war Is to make tbem reimburse
hi h ir ao little, for the months and
eara loai from our lives for a cause whose
vrr semblance of high purpose baa been

Powerful bunking Intsrests, absorbed In
