BUREAU IS NOW i DECENTRALIZED I Eventually to Take Bureau to Hospital, Director Tells Committee. j WASHINGTON. Iml., March 1 1.— Permanent and total disability cases of disabled veterans have been plac ed under the authority of the reg ional offices of the Veterans Bureau us the most recent and important de centralization step. Gen. Frank T. Hines, Director of the Veterans Bur eau told the Nalion.nl Rehabilitation i Committee of The American Legion at its meeting here recently. Tiiis is a tremendous step toward complete decentralization, the director ; said, as only death claims are new held for settlement in the Washing •l Central office. In carrying out this policy of tak ing the Veterans Bureau to the dis abled man, Director Hines declared that eventually he intended to plate claims ami rating boards in the var ious hospitals. The Legion has al ways worked for complete decentrali zation of the Bureau. Asked by Watson B. Miller, chair man of the committee regarding ec-j onomy cuts, Director Hines averred | there was no truth to the rumor that I he intended to introduce economics; that might curtail treatment of sick veterans. On the contrary, he said, salaries of physicians had been in creased $340,000 in making for ef feciency. Work Performed. Ollier work performed by the Re-j habilitatlon Committee whose meet ing was one of the most important 1 ever held includes the following: 1. Director Chairman Miller to j investigate number of ex-service men | suffering from leprosy, receiving no compensation and make arrange ments for Congressional action to caie for them. The estimated mini her of veterans suffering from lep rosy is 200. 2. —Further emphasis upon the per manent cure slogan of the committee by Dr. Kennon Dunham, advisory member of the committee on tuber culosis. Complimented tlie work of llie Director’s Medical Council in u| resolution of appreciation which was adopted. 3. Committee discussed the Mapes Bill for reorganization of the exe cutive departments ami adopted a resolution opposing this or any other; I legislation likely to hamper the Ve* lerans Bureau administration. Henat ■or Rice Means of Colorado a former ; department commander of the Leg j Ion carried the Legion’s attitude to | the 'Senate. 4. A resolution urging the provis ion of proper medical research fac ilities was adopted. These include experimental laboratories, libraries and the services of competent chem ists and doctors. D. The committee adopted a res: • lution of thanks to the Knights of Columbus for their gift of $76,0UU to iliu Legion to carry on the rehabllit ation work this year. Guardianship Tangle. fi. A lively discussion concerning the guardianship tangle resulted in a resolution calling for the estab lishment of a separate division with in the Bureau to handle all guard ianship questions with representat ives in each district' office each of whom has the right to investigate and act in cases where guardians are misusing funds. 7. Mr. Miller was armed with full authority to push the Legion's legis lative battle to liberalize the World War Veterans Act and to make avail able appropriations for new hos-j pitals.
