OF LEGION VISITING
ARIZONA HOSPITALS
Flushed with the success that at-

Campbell and the people of Tucson, In
expediting1 tne construction vi ure
temporary hospital there for former
service men, 13. J. Winslett, national
vice commander of the American Le
gion and Herbert II. Uplegraff, as
sistant director of the American Le
gion news service, arrived in town
yesterday morning. Though their work
is finished at Tucson, at the request
of Department Commander Clingan
they are visiting the various hospitals
here where service men are residing.
They will also go to Prescott' But
they make It clear that the visit is in
no sense an official one. xney were
ov.rtT.rTi nVinnt thp institutions of Phoe
nix by Leon S. Jacobs of the legion
hospital organization commui.ee aim
by Commander Blumenthal of the local
post.
Mr.' Updegraff said yesterday that
the hospital at Tucson was the out
growth of an effort by Dr. II. D. M'Ar
than, formerly connected with the pub
lic health service and himself a suf
ferer from a pudmonary disease which
brought him to Tucson. Seeing the
number of former service men-who had
come there, he began in a small way
to work for their relief but he quickly
discovered that on account of their
rapidly increasing number the work
must be carried on on a larger scope.
Ho went to Washington, where he
met Governor Campbell and Director
Jones of the war risk bureau, and ob
tained their promises of assistance m
carrying out his relief plan. On the
showing that there were 450 hos
pitalized service men there and that
12S others were living in condemned
irmy tents, the need of expedition was
urgent. The governor had placed at
the disposal of the government for this
purpose the aid of the state highway
department and any other aid that
could be furnished.
Under the direction ol National
Commander Galbraith ?r iti Ameri
can Legion, Messra. Winslett and Up-
ciegraff arrived in Tucson only a week
ago. ' A site for the government hos
pital had been selected in Pastime
Park. It was estimated that it would
take about three months to prepare
the hospital" for occupancy. At suc
cessive meetings which were held this
time was cut down to one month, then
to three weeks and then to ten days
But the lowest estimate was beaten.
Through the. efforts of the whole com
munity, comfortable quarters for the
invalid service men were prepared in
one week.
All over the country, said Mr. Upde
graif, there is a movement for wider
and more general relief for former ser
vice men. One plan has taken the form
of legislation in the Wasson bill for
the co-ordination of the public health
service, the Dureau of war risk insur
ance and the federal vocational educa
tion bureau under one department with
a cabinet officer at the head of it.
The main object of this plan is to
prevent the "passing of the buck,"
which has so marked the operations oi
these various bodies to the detriment
and loss of service men, and the num
ber of those in need of all the aid the
government can supply is so appalling
that it is almost certain that the plan
will be adopted. It is estimated that
the number of invalid service men is
not less tiAn 200,000; that there are
56.000 suffering from pulmonary dis
eases and that 70,000 are afflicted with
mental ailments.
