GENERAL SAWYER asked for resolutions from the Resolutions Committee. GENERAL IRELAND: “Your committee has gone over the resolutions that have been presented, and we find all of them in order, with the exception of one submitted by Colonel Bratton with reference to transportation home. We would inform you that there will have to be legislation to carry out that resolution. We have changed the resolution to read as follows: ‘That the Director of the U.S. Veterans’ Bureau be requested to secure legislation so that the expenses of the patient’s transportation to his bona fide home, when he has been discharged for disciplinary reasons, be deducted from his compensation, when compensation is being given, or may be given thereafter.’ As changed, I recommend that the resolution be adopted by the meeting as read.” This _Motion_ was seconded, and carried. CAPTAIN N. J. BLACKWOOD, U. S. N.:—The Committee on Forms has held two meetings at which the general subject of this work was discussed and plans agreed upon. This work is so great that your Committee finds it impossible to report more than progress at present. The whole matter must be gone into carefully and thoroughly in order to avoid mistakes and duplications of the past. The work, to be a success, will require frequent meetings, careful study and cooperation. Therefore, it seems wise that all members of the Committee be officers on duty in Washington, and I recommend that the present chairman, Captain Blackwood, be relieved, and that his place be filled by Captain M. S. Elliott, Commanding Officer of the Naval Hospital; also, that all Commanding Officers here present shall, as soon as possible after returning to their respective commands, take up the subject of forms and paper work regarding Veterans’ Bureau patients, and as soon thereafter as possible submit to the Veterans’ Bureau, Washington, recommendations and suggestions for the elimination, provision and simplification both of the forms themselves and their numbers. Upon receipt of these letters, your Committee will then take up the whole subject in a more comprehensive way and will, as soon as possible, submit its recommendations for your consideration and approval. The _MOTION_ was seconded and carried. Meeting adjourned at 12:30 P. M. _Eighth Session_ Friday, January 20, 1922. Honorable Charles H. Burke presiding. The roll was called by Dr. W. A. White. MR. BURKE: “We will proceed with the afternoon program. The first subject is “Foreign Relations of the U.S. Veterans’ Bureau in care of ex-soldiers of the former allied countries.” It will be discussed by Dr. F. D. Hester of the Veterans’ Bureau”. DR. HESTER: read as follows: “FOREIGN RELATIONS OF THE U.S. VETERANS’ BUREAU IN CARE OF EX-SOLDIERS OF THE FORMER ALLIED COUNTRIES. Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
