DISCHARGED SOLDIER
MEASURE IS PASSED
One Provides System By Which They
May Secure Loans To Acquire
Farm Lands.
Discharged soldiers of Southern
Missouri will benefit under five
measures which were passed by the
state senate Tuesday.
The more important were a bill by
Senator Duncan of Lincoln county,
providing a system of " co-operation
with the federal government, by which
returned soldiers may acquire with
state and federal aid, farm lands by a
small payment with a loan for the
balance covering a period of as long as
40 years; the submission of a consti
tutional amendment to provide a
revolving fund of $1,000,000 to supply
6tate moneys for the undertaking, and
a bill by Senator Baker of Vernon
county providing for a commission to
aid returned soldiers in obtaining re
instatement in the positions they held
when they entered the army navy or
marine corps. The latter bill provides
that publicity shall be given -reports
of the commission which shall include
statements as to whether individual
soldiers obtained their old jobs, and
if they didn't the reasons. ;
