RECORDER TRIES NUMEROUS CASES Several Defendants Receive Sentences, While uinen Found Not Guilty TnAar' Court was held Friday morning of last week instead of the RALEIGH, Nov. 1 Compensation, now being paid to veterans, or de pendents of deceased veterans, for death and disability incurred in war service is probably not sufficient, and should undoubtedly be increased," said Frank Page, Chairman of the North Carolina Branch of the Nation al Economy League, in a measure replying to charges that the League is "after" disabled service men. "Many of the veterans who incur red disability in actual war service are now being neglected, and should be given more consideration at the hnnHa of an appreciative irovern- tYient." Mr. Page said. "We are in no isense raising objection to the amount of money the Federal government is paying to these disabled men and to the families of those killed in action. "But," said Mr. Page, "we are out with the firm intention of wiping from the federal payroll those thous ands of former service men who, coming through the war unscathed and probably in better heaitn tnan when they entered, have incurred some disability in civilian life which had no connection with their war ser vice whatever. An appreciative gov ernment is not one that will continue payments of huge sums to the men, who happened to some disability in civil life, just because they wore the uniform for a period, either m active or other service. "The huge sum of $452,000,000 is now being paid, for this fiscal year 1932-33, to veterans and families of deceased veterans who sustained no injury whatever in war service, but who incurred some injury in civilian Harvesting Sweet roiaioe. even Dtmiei w - """77 , .
