The American Legion today called on the government for immediate cash payment of the Adjusted Service (bonus) Certificates as a "most effective means" of hastening national economic recovery. Frank Belgrano, San Francisco banker, was chosen by the vet- 1 erans as their 1035 national com mander, succeeding Edward A. Hayes of Decatur. 111. He will direct the Legion's campaign to obtain the bonus at the next session of Congress.

The 'Senate has refused in the last two years to authorize payment of the bonus, although the House has twice voted for the measure, Because of the Senate stand, administration chieftains in Washington beblieve a veto would be upheld even should the bonus be passed by Congress. Fulitllment of the convention's "recommendation" would entail disbursement from the federal Treasury of about $2,000.000,0000, but this, the Legion held "will not create an additional debt, but will discharge and retire an acknowledged contract obligation of the government." The convention, in Its closing session of the 16th annual meeting. "-v through the con- ventlon hall The Legion claimed immediate cash payment would do these things' 1.

The three scientists long battled the disease which until eight years aft" was considered incurable. "For liver therapy in was the succinct summary of the award. Experiments Continued In Rochester Sixteen years of research were erowned with international lecogni-tlon for Dr. George H.

OfTicial notification to the three; scientists is expected to be con-1 veyed this week when a date prob-1 will be set for the presentation of the prize at Stockholm by the; Km; of Sweden. In designating the three Ameri- can research men for the international recognition, the committee is recognizing their work in eliml-j nating from the list of fatal is-1 eases, that, of pernicious anemia.

His findings have been used as the basis for the treatment of humans worked out by Doctor Minot with the assist- ance of Doctor Murphy. In his work here Doctor Whipple has had the assistance of Mrs. Frieda S. i Robbina, physiologist. "The work la by no means done." I aid Doctor Whipple yesterday.

"We have worked out a treatment! which is being used quite satis-; faclorlly, but the work of research ii never done and we plan to con-j tinue our studies and cxpcri-l ments," I By experimentation on dogs which he Wed to one-third of their normal hiood supply, Doctor Whip- pie discovered that the liver of animals and birds contained a substance which would restore the 1 marrow of the long bones of the body to their task of creating new red blood cells. The cause of anemia Is the inability of the mar-j row to carry on this function, to his discovery re-, garding the Importance of liver.
