It was written by John ODonnell. I read from it a telegram which shows how veterans feel about the matter. Veterans will be adversely affected if the program we are nov- considering Is adopted. The telegram is from Jim Morton. 220 South Street. New York. I read from it as follows: It appears Congress will open our doors to thousands of immigrants at a time when the Nation cannot house its own. In New York and elsewhere in the Nation veterans are dwelling with inlaws or in Quonset huts. coldwater fiats or worse. Marriages are being postponed for want of housing.
