R. Lee Lovel Ea!tvISrd
Hon. A. b. Fall, Secretary of the In
terior Department, himself a Spanish
War veteran and a most appreciative
and sympathetic friend of men "who
have borne tho brunt of battle", and
their widows and orphans, has handed
down In the Kennedy case an Impor
tant decision concerning the com
moncemont of the $72 rate allowed by
the act of May 1, 1920, to veterans of
the Civil and Mexican Wars whose
physical conditions are such as to re
quire the regular aid and attendance
of anolhor person.
Prior to April 25, 1921, when Secre
tary Full handed down his decision in
the Graham case, the increase to $72
per month was mado to commence
from the date of medical examination
of the pensioner by a surgeon or board
of surgeons designated by the Pension
Bureau Secretary Fall had not been
In office two months when he rendered
the decision in tho Graham case under
which this narrow and restricted In
terpretation of tho act of May 1, 1920
was modified and the $72 rate was
made to commence from the date of
filing the claim therefor, if the evi
dence In the case showed the condition
of helplessness existed at that time
In that decision the Secretary enunci
ated a most just and equitable rulo of
practice: "Applicants for pension
should not be penalized because of de
lay, necessary though it be, of the Gov
ernment."
The decision In the Kennedy case
holds that "If a person in receipt of
pension under existing law is shown
to be, on the date of aproval of act
(May 1, 1920), In a physical condition
requiring regular aid and attendance
of another person and entitling him to
the rate of $72 per month under the
provisions of section 2 of said act, then
said rate of $72 Is to commence from
the date of the approval of said act
(May 1, 1920) ; but if he Is not shown
to be In the physical condition en
titling him to said rate on said date,
then on any subsequent date that said
conditions are shown to exist."
Approximately 62,000 claims for the
$72 rate have been allowed since May
1, 1920, and at the present time about
37,000 veterans are In receipt of said
$72 rate. In none of these cases has
the pensioner been afforded the oppor
tunity to show by evidence whether
the conditions entitling him to said
rate existed on May 1, 1920, or If they
did not thon exist, the subsequent date
on which said conditions first existed.
In the cases heretofore allowed reis
sues can be made, under the terms of
the Kennedy decision, to commence
the $72 rate from May 1, 1920, the date
of approval of this act, or from the
date when the condition of helpless
ness is shown after the approval of
this act. Pensioners now In receipt of
$72 under the act of May 1, 1920, may
be entitled to an earlier date of com
mencement of said rate; widows of
pensioners who were allowed $72 per
month andor said act and have since
died, may be entitled to a greater
amount of accrued pension than they
received In settlement of claims for
pension due to date of death of their
soldier husbands.
Although there are few of the old
veterans of the Tenth and Sixteenth
Kentucky Regiments left the great ma
jority of those living were at Beech
wood Park Wednesday to attend the
annual reunion and with them there
were many relatives and friends.
The old soldiers and their friends
had a great day meeting old comrades
and talking over old times.
The meeting proper was opened in
the park pavilion by President R. S.
Hudson, of Flcmlngsburg, and Rev. J.
J. Dickey led in the opening prayer.
Following music by a choir the fol
lowing committees were named:
Resolutions Comrades Dryden,
Metcalfe and Harding; Memorial:
Comrades Cropper and Hearst and
Revs. Barbour and Dickey.
During the past year six members
of the thin ranks were called and fit
ting memorial services were held for
them addresses being made by Dr.
Tohn Barbour, of the Presbyterian
church, and Rev. J. J. Dickey, of Flem
Ingsburg
Delightful music was rendered by a
hand organized and led by Allan Wood,
cornet soloist of the Kentucky Card
Inals. The old veterans greatly appre
ciated music furnished by the boys.
The president Is elected for life as is
also the secretary so that Mr. R. S.
Hudson, of Flcmlngsburg, holds over
as president and Mrs. G. W. Hook, of
Peebles, Ohio, as secretary. Vice pres
idents were chosen as follows:
Tenth Kentucky Capt. C. L. Dud
ley, Flemlngsburg. i
Sixteenth Kentucky H. C. Met
salft, Brooksvllle. j
The official account of this year's
meeting by tho secretary will be pub
lished in the Public Ledger within I
few days.
TWO CASES FALL IN
COrRT POLICE
Tho case against j Tom Preston
charged with a breach the peace in
beating his wife at their house boat
home in the Ohio at the foot of Cot
tage street, fell through with and the
defendant was discharged by Judge
Curran in City Court Wednesday nfter
noon when the wife, who made the
charges, admitted that uhe had been
drinking liquor and it was proven that
she was drunk thereby discrediting
her as a witness.
The case against Chas. Mitchell,
charged with being the owner of a
moonshine still found by officers In
the willows near the Preston boat, also
fell through when Mrs. Preston, the
chief prosecuting witness testified
that she did not know to whom the
still belonged although she had pre
viously told officers that It was Mltch
oll's property.

FAULTY PAPERS
WIN DISMISSAL IN
MOONSHINE CASE
Henry Moore, Colored, Charged With
Moonshlnlng, Dism issed When Affi
davit for Search Warrant Is
Found Faulty.
Although a largo copper still and a .
quantity of mash was found by local
police when they searched Henry
Moore's home at Union and Front
streets several months ago and thia
equipment was on hand as evidence
against the man on a charge of moon
shining, CircniL Juuge C. D. Newoll
would not permit tho use of the outfit
as evidence or the testimony of the ar
resting ofllcers, when Attorney M. J.
Hennessey, representing the defend
ant, questioned tbs validity of the affi
davit upon which City Judge Harry C.
Curran lBsued tho search warrant, In
Circuit Court Wednesday morning.
Attorney Hennessey pointed out that
the affidavit for the search warrant
was not drawn according to law in
that It did not describe the property
to be searched and peremptory in
structions were given the Jury to find
the defendant not guilty.
This is a question which has been
much discussed in the courts since the
advent of troubles over search wat-t
rants in liquor cases. The courj
throw the greatest protection around
tho home and are always very strict
tl.f every logal requirement has been
met before one's home is searched by
officers for any purpose. '
There are several other liquor cases
pending in which, is it understood, the
same question will be raised.
