tiavel officer has made arrangements*
with the Commeireial National Bank !
to handle weekly payment accounts
for Legion men.
Applications, which are due on No
vember loth, must be covered by SSO
cold cash, or a transfer certificate
from the official bank.
In the case of a Legion account!'
the interest on the money will con
tinue to accumulate in favor of the ’■
depositor, whereas if he puts up the'
cold eash ; he loses this.
No one in France is permitted by
law to earn more than $20,000 \i
year, as an unforeseen consequence of
tlie recent tax bill voted by -the gov
ernment.
The United States possesses forty

boasts only one railroad.
