Respectfully submitted. Notwithstanding there is some small division in thought .’. recognizing the obligation to adjust the compensation. there is nn division in the question of caring for the sick and disabled sol- diers. Already we have expended over a billion dollar: for this purpose and we are rapidly organizing the proper departments of this government in order that we may adequately care for the needs and comforts of the most unfortunate of our citizens those who offered themselves as a necessary sacrifice.
