Osterville The Veterans' Administration in Providence recently received a let- ter from a vetera n asking why he was not receiving his subsistence allowance while he was taking on- the-job training. The veteran failed to Indicate where he was taking his training , when he started, and what his "C" number was—the number assigned to his particular case. To make matters worse, this vetera n wrote at the end of his letter—"Yours, sincerely, " and then forgot to sign his name. While the VA attempts to find out who wrote that letter, the vet- eran is "sweating out" an answer to his query and is blaming "red tpe" for the delay. Unfortunatel y, such "mystery" letters as the one aforementioned are not the exception. Of the 2500 letters received daily by the Prov- idence. R. I. Regional Office , several of them are "mysteries." By the use of various clues—post- marks, return addresses, handwrit- ing, the VA can in most cases event- ually determine the sender of an unidentified letter. But it takes time, and the service to the veter- " an is delayed. So, if you do not want to have your mail services delayed , be sure to include all pertinent data in your letters to the Veterans ' Administra- tion. Identify yourself fully. In your first letter to the VA, include your full name and addresss, serv- ice serial number , date of birth, date of entrance into^ and separa- tion from service , and other infor- mation that may help Identify you from 250,000 other local veterans. When you know your insurance or claim number , send that along with your complete address. Dependents of veterans who write to the Veterans' Administra- tion should also completely identify themselves. When Inquiring about your husband's, brother 's, son 's, etc., Insurance or pension , give all Information about his case. Don 't let yours be a "mystery" letter. If you have any questions, Vet- erans, relative to your GI benefits , drop into your local VA office , or, if you prefer, send your question to this newspaper . VA experts will either answer your question by let- ter, or the answer will be publish- in this column, depending on the type of question and answer. 1Br# Grafton Hamilton Meads , 18, son of Mr . and Mrs. Manuel Meads , Tonset Road, Orleans , has report- ed for recruit training at Naval Training Center , Bainbridge , Mil.

FromThe Patriot'sEarly Files The first public demonstration of the "shot in the arm " or injection treatment of pin oak trees for the bleeding canker disease will be held at Falmouth , Thursduy after- noon at 1:30 o'clock. It will be the first time that pin oaks in numbers hnve been treated in New England by this revolution- ary chemotherapy method. The scientific treatment will be conducted by the Bartlett Tree Ex- pert Company in co-operation with Antone Couto, tree warden of the town of Falmouth. Some 1000 stately pin oaks that line Pin Oak Avenue in Falmouth are infected with the disease. Only once before has bleeding canker known to strike pin oaks, and that was at Amherst College where the several trees infected were success- fully treated by the Injection meth- od in 1941. Bleeding canker disease usually attacks maples and beeches. It fre- quently manifests itself in bleeding lesions or cracks on the bark , ac- cording to Willard Phillips of Oster- ville, area manager for the Bartlett •Company. The disease gradually weakens the tree, causing yellow- ing of foliage and dleback of limbs. Ten of the Falmouth pin oaks will be treated in the public dem- onstration. Comparison with non- Injected trees will be made and rec- ords kept. The other trees will be injected later. Heading the staff conducting the demonstration will be Nester Car- oselli , assoclats pathologist of the Bartlett Tree Research Laborator- ies of Stamford , Conn. It was Mr. Caroselll who while a graduate stu- dent at Rhode Island State College first helped perfect the injection treatment which bears his name. The demonstration will take place on Pin Oak Avenue, Falmouth at 1:30 p.m. Thursday, under tbTrt? rection of Willard Phillips , c "' Cod manager of the Bartlett Trie Expert Company.'
