JACK FAEY RETURNS AFTER
SUCCESSFUL CAMPAIGN
FOR VETS’ BONUS
“The biscuits were hanging high i
at times but I never starved and
still have my health,” said Jack
Faey, who arrived in Cordova af
|ter hiking, hitch-riding and
| boarding anything that moved in
a 30,000-mile trip which took him
:from the Arctic Circle to Wash
ington, D. C., and back to Cordova
after a successful campaign to do
■ his part to put over the bonus bill
!for the World War Veterans.
| Jack Faey originally hailed from
I Los Angeles. He served in Com
pany K, Thirty-first Infantry in
; Siberia, and in Company H, Fif
teenth Infantry in China, and af
ter the war ended spent the inter
vening years roaming the world
| from Europe to India, circling the
! globe with the restless wanderlust
1 growing stronger the further he
went.
Rumors concerning the soldiers’
bonus drifted up to Jack Faey,
when he was drifting down the
Yukon last summer and he decided
to go back and see what it was all
about. He reached Los Angeles
and found nothing there so started
North on January 2 of this year.
Arriving in Seattle he made himself
a four-way sign appealing for the
bonus payment and started a pa
rade through Seattle. He then
decided that the only thing to do
was to take it up directly with the
Congressmen, and acting on this
thought, without a nickel in his
pocket, he started East.
Freezing in Montana was the
hardest part of the trip, but the
best part was in Chicago, accord
ing to Jack. In the Windy City
“a fellow came up to me and said,
‘You’re a stranger, aren’t you?’
and when I told him I was he said,
‘Would you like to make a few dol
lars?’ “Brother,” I said, “I would
cut your head off for a few dollars.”
So he took me to the polls and
paid me two dollars to vote for Big I
Bill Thompson, and then took me
across the street and paid me two
| dollars more to vote for him
| again.”
I “That,” said Faey, “was the only
! money I made until I arrived in
Washington, and then when they
found out “who I was and where
I was from I made all kinds of
money just talking about the trip.”
Faey was the second man in the
United States to receive his bonus
loan under the new law. “There
were 82,000 there wanting their
tomb-stone bonus,” he said, “and
it looked like old times with the
Red Cross serving coffee and
‘doughnuts, but if they pass a law
paying the other half, I’ll be right
back there after it.” — Cordova
Times.
Faey arrived in Seward on the
Admiral Watson and plans to go
Westward providing he doesn’t go
North.
