WASHINGTON. Dec 14.r- <AV-
When Uncle Sam winds up the job
. of passing out the ixyius next mouth
he may find that veterans have not
claimed 40 to 50 millions of the
money
Authorities estimate that between
140,000 and 150,000 eligible world
war veterans iiave not applied for
the bonus totaling about $"0,000.-
000 No application can be filed af-
ter midnight, Jan 2. and some of-
that even a last-
wcpld leave at least
100,000 who had not applied
The treasury thus might save
about $45,000,000 unless Congress
voted to reopen the. application ^pe-
riod.

WASHINGTON,
About 5.000,000
school children will ait down this
winter to free lunches made pos-
sible partly by a federal gift of
more than 240.000.000 pounds of
surplus food valued at $18,000,000
Officials of the Federal Surplus
Commodities Corporation outline
the reasons for the program by re-
lating tins story:
Walking through a hallway where
pupils kept their lunch boxes, u
North Dakota school principal
opened 30 of the boxes Seven were
empty The children carried them
merely out of pride.
The principal applied (jirough
eounty and state welfare agencies
tor surplus commodities, and now
the hungry youngsters eat liQt
lunches at school.
Last year. 600.000 to 800.000 chil-
dren were given lunch. They ate
29,000,000 pounds of surplus com-
modities, which provlued fr<Wi one-
third to one-half of their lunches,
the rest being furnished locally.
As far as possible, officials said,
loods are allocated to provide chil-
dren with a balanced diet, to fill
gaps in the meals of low-Income
families Eighteen different fdods
are available
Knox, son of Mr and ,
Mrs A H Knox Jr of Krum, had
his tpnsiis and adenoids removed
