RECORD SANTA FE, NEW MEXICO, FRIDAY, JUNE 17, 1921 .NUMBER 350 SUBSCRIPTION $1.50 MEW MEXICO STATE DISABLED OFFICERS, SETTLERS, OIL LOCATORS, WOMEN, ALL.. RECEIVE BURSUM SUPPORT Bursum Get! Hearing u Hi, Bill Pro riding for Retirement of Ditabled Emergency Officer The Committee on Military Affairs of the United States Senate had hear ings on S. 1565, introduced by Sena tor Bursum, providing for Retirement of Disabled Emergency Officers un der the same conditions as now pro vided for Officers of the Reelular Army who incurred physical disability in line of duty during the World War. On June 4, 1920 a law was passed pro viding that all officers of the Naval Reserve force and temporary offic ers nf the Navv who have hereto fore incurred or may hereafter incur physical disabilities in linf of duty shall he eugiuie lor reiirciiic.n u..uw the same conditions as now provided by law for officers of the Regular Navy who are retired for physical disabilities in the line of duty, and the testimony of ex-officers and those from Walter Reed hospital show how deeply they feel the injustice of the discrimination between the "Emerg ency" officer who gave up his bus iness and risked his life the same as th 'Kcimlar Armv" officer, yet is! discriminated against when it comes to the question of retirement for physical disability incurred in line of . duty. Senator Bursum made a strong appeal to the committee to remove this discrimination between retirement of disabled "Emergency" and "Re gular Army" officers, and give the disabled "Emergency" officer the same privileges and the same treat ment and rights as are given to of ficers of the regular line, as he feels that too much cannot be done for the men who made the extreme sacrifice. It was pleaded that to provide the same retirement privileges as afford ed ' Regular Army" officers is a very small recognition of American citiz ens, especially since these "Emerg ency" officers shared the same benef its and compensation, endured the same hardshius and faced the same 1 dangers during the war that the Re- giuar .yniy o, , er ! eu ...... ....u....... -., , en.

This fund is immediately avail able at the rate of interest charged by the federal reserve board" and will be loaned on six months notes, re newable for as long as needed up to two years, to be used exclusively for relief of cattle and sheep men.

As far as the scorekeepert and their several assistants had been able to check up at the close of the ninth inning, the score was 21 to 3 The banks and business houses being closed, it was impossible to get en ough adding machines to run up the totals of hits and errors. Estancia got a lead in the first in ning by scoring one earned run on two hits. Santa Fe came back by scoring four runs on four hits and some wretched fielding. Both pitchers then settled down to real twirling, and it looked like the bit; crowd would have a chance to see a first-class exhibtiou. It was in the sixth iniug that the visitors blew up with a noise that jar red the surrounding mountains. Mis cues flashed from infield to out and back again. Weiss, first up for San ta Fe, went to bat three times in this inning. The kid chalking up the ii. :a. iuiii oil mc stumiuaiu on mc iuc- liues had to call for counsel and ex pert assistance in order to jam 15 runs into one inning. Loague started in the box for Es tancia and went well until the team made the ballon ascension.
