DALLAS Tuly 27. Veterans of the
world war who were injured In any
war or contracted disease during gov-
ernment service were urged to obtain
a certificate of injur' before August
9 the last day lor registering such
cases in a statement Issued today Ty
S. C. Kile district manager of District
14 TJ. S. Veterans Bureau here. Fail-
ure to obtam such a certificate before
the period for registration expires
will prevent the former service man
-from receiving compensation benefits
from the government even though the
injury may "become serious at some
luture time the statement said.
"There are thousands of former ser-
vice men no doubt hundreds In Tex-
as alone who sustained slight in-
juries or contracted disease during
the period of their service who have
thought little of possible results"
Manager Kile said. "These men
should realize that at any time the in-
jury may give them unexpected trou-
ble and in tills case they should have
assistance from the government un
der the provisions of the War Risk In-j
surance Act
"Under the terms of an amendment
to the War Risk Insurance Act pass-
ed by Congress August 9 1921 all
former service men who have minor
injuries must Tegister the same before
' August 9 1922 or forfeit all claims to
future benefits of the act This means
that many veterans are going to lose
their claim to assistance because of
failure to register the injury with the
Veterans' Bureau.
"It "is not necessary to file a claim
for' compensation or to take any for-
mal action to register such minor in-
juries or defects which resulted from
service. All that is necessary Is to
write to the Director U. S. Veterans
Bureau Washington giving name
rank organization date of enlistment
and discharge and stating circum-
stances under which the disease or
Injury was Incured. Such action may
be the means of determining . .disabil
ity of the veteranjor cither compen-
satioa or pension benefits. These
same regulations apply also to par-
ents and other beneficiaries who are
not receiving compensation for death
of dependent wniie in service.
"All Texas former service jnen who.
incurred Injuries while in service no
matter how slight they may have been
arg?T ;ged to take proper Steps for
proJwiofl before August 9."

"Those blond races have implanted

"They terrified their children with
