S. Veterans* Bureau Issues Interesting Statement During the past year, three years after the Armistice was signed, ap- proximately a quarter of a million claims for compensation were filed by the veterans of the World War, ac- cording to-, figures compiled by the U. S. Veterans' bureau. Thousands of disabled veterans have recently be- come aware* of the fact that the United States Government had made provisions for their reliefsâ€"--©w 80,000 of the 245,153 claims filed dur- ing the past year are the result of the clean-up campaign conducted through- out the country by the U. S. Veterans bureau. It. may seem strange that these claims were not filed immediate- ly after the men were discharged from the service. In many cases their dis- abilities were of such a minor degree that they did not think It necessary to make application for compensation. This minor disability, through Inade- quate medical attention after dis- charge and also due to the character of their occupations, became aggra- vated and developed into disabilities of-a maje^ degree, Thenr' too, there were thousands of .veterans who al- though they were suffering from ma- jor disabilities lacked information as to the proper prdcedure of filing their claims and in many cases were entire- ly ignorant of any. knowledge of the relief provided by -the-governmentâ€" Tha following^ figures indicate the problems which face the U.
