DAV Offers Return
Of Fees to 200,000
In Puzzle Contest
The Disabled American Veterans
Service Foundation this week will
send letters to more than 200,000
entrans in a $51,000 word-puzzle
contest in an effort to clear up a
threatened fraud order by the Post
office Department, officials said last
night.
The Federal Department, it was
at it this way:
•
Your eyes are your fortune.
They help you see the way to
^security and happiness.
They lead you to the good
things in life. They deserve
the very best care you can
give them. Permit us to
t examine your eyes regularly.

learned, has complained that the
organization misled the public on
several points in publicizing the
contest.
Willard W. Rice, executive secre
tary of the DAV foundation, said
the letters would offer to return en
trance fees of any contestants who
entered on "the basis of any mis
understanding.” Among points the
letter will explain, he said, are:
That no part of the entry fees will
be paid directly to veterans, but that
profits would go to the Disabled
American Veterans, for its activities
in behalf of disabled veterans.
That letterheads carrying photo
| graphs and comments by President
Truman, Gen. Bradley, Gen. Eisen
hower and Gen. MacArthur should
not be constructed as indorsement
of the constest.
That “while it is passible, it is
unlikely that prizes will be won
simply by solving one puzzle."
Postal officials objected Mr. Rice
said, to a line in the publicity, read
ing, “You can win $33,000 by solv
ing this one puzzle alone.” Rules
of the contest, he said, pointed out
that tie-breaker contests would be
held in case of tie high scores.
