The Wichita EAGLE wants The Cham
pion TO tell where the money TO pay the
proposed service pension is TO come from.
The required amount could be raised by
curtaihng quite number of useless eX-
pendltures-by a reduction Of the annual
appropriations for the rivers and harbors;
10y maintaining the existing tariff, which,
by the way, with few exceptions, is no
burden on ANYBODY, least of all farmers:
by retaining the internal revenue tax on
tobacco. From these and other sources
that might be named. the Sl30, G0o, 600 or
$50, ,00o.000 required to pay service PEN
sions could De raised without embarrass-
ment TO anybody or any interest And.
too, IL should be borne in mind that the
passage of \ service pension bill would
at once sweep from the calender a large
number Of private pension claims whose
aggregate amount foots up many millions
OF dollars.
