These are twenty-seven appeals from judgments of various district courts in soldiers’ compensation cases, in all except two of which the state is appellant. They fall somewhat logically into groups governed by similar principles, but their number and diversity are such as to render it impracticable to dispose of them like an ordinary series of consolidated cases. The court, however, has been advised that it will expedite the work of the compensation board to have the decisions in these cases announced now, although formal opinions have not been prepared. The following decisions, with a keynote indicating the controlling point in each case, is therefore announced, viz.:
In Horvat v. Davis, No. 25,550, and Patrick v. Davis, No. 25,552, appeals from Wyandotte county, appellees’ honorable discharges indicate that their world-w7ar service was satisfactory to the government, and appellees are within the letter of the compensation act. The words written across their discharges, “Not a citizen of the United States,” held not to lessen the force of the recitals that appellees’ service was “honest and faithful.” Judgment affirmed.
