Many Bills PlgeOnhOled

Innumerable bonus bills have been
introduced but none has seen the light
of day, and few are likely to. The
American Legion at it's initial meet
ing at st. Louis practically recorded
itself against the bonus plans. The
sentiment was that with many of the
men bonus of few hundred dollars
would be spent like water and assist
the soldiers future not at all.
Democratic leaders have served no.
tice on the Republicans of the House
tina action on the soldiers measures
will be demanded They will insist
that if the Republicans cannot evolve
bill that will please not only the
veteran, but also a majority of the
majority party, it is time some of the
Democratic measures should be re-
ported by the committee in charge and
given to the House for action.
The soldiers land bill appears to be
dead The Republican leaders viewed
this as promising measure for kid
mapping during the last session and ap-
propriated it, as soon as the special
session was called. Republican causes
have demonstrated that the party floor
leader, Mr.. Mondell, whose name
adorns the bill, cannot rally a half
dozen of his flock to unreserved sup
port of it. Moreover, some of those
who understand the ideas of the Sec
rotary of Interior Lane as embodied
in the original bill, insist that Repre-
sentative Mondell has shown himself
unable to explain it's real provisions
when questioned on the floor of the
House.

CAN'T AGREE ON SOLDIERS
BILLS
Many Measures Pige0nhOled In
House of Representatives
No Action Likely

Despite the growing irritation on
the part of the soldiers and sailors,
the Republican majority in the House
of Representatives continues its fail
ure to agree upon any provision for
men who have served in the war.
Democratic charges of an entire lack
of constructive ability are privately
admitted by many Republican leaders.
Having failed in numerous attempts
to reach an agreement on the Mon
dell-Smoot-Lane soldiers land bill, the
Republican House Leaders decided to
pass the buck" by waiting the con-
vention of the American Legion, to be
held at Minneapolis in November,
trusting to get some ideas from the
men themselves. But the soldiers de-
cline to regard this as evidence of
Congressional appreciation Of their
services.
Something in the way of a stop-gap
had to be provided, so Representative
King Swope, newly elected Kentucky
member and war veteran, was Sc
lected to make the play" He intro
duced bill providing for six months
pay for every soldier and sailor, and.
although the bill has not been con-
sidered by the House, it is being her.
aided as evidence of Republican in
terest in the warriors.
An almost identical bill was intro
duced the first day of the special ses-
sion by Representative Scott Ferris of
Oklahoma, but that has been lost
sight of because a Democrat was the
proponent. Representative Ferris has
always favored the Lane bill with
amendments, but introduced his bonus
bill with the idea that opposition to
the soldiers land plan might stifie
action.

THERE ARE NOW 1000
BUFFALOE IN AMERICA

WASHINGTON, sept 4. (spL)-A
buffalo census recently taken by the
department Of agriculture shows there
are about 1000 of these animals in
North America. The most Of these
are In Canada but there are more than
5000 buffaloes in the United States,
and 1000 Of these are owned by private
individuals or corporations. There are
eight government herds, however, all
IN healthy and thriving condition, and
while six of these are under the control
Of the department of agriculture the
largest, numbering 450 bison, is in
charge OF the department of interior
and located in Yellowstone Park.
So well have the buffalo herds pros
pered that arrangements are provided
for In the current agricultural appropri-
alton whereby the secretary Of agri-
culture may donate specimens to mu-
inequalities and public Institutions. Pro-
vision also has been made for the loan
or exchange OF these animals so as to
aid In the propagation OF the species.
The decision to donate animals to
due to the fact that there is a substan-
tial surplus Of bulls In the Wichita a
tional forest and game preserve as
well as in some Of the other herds. 1t
has baen found that these surplus bulls
merely fight among themselves when
retained with the herd.
This herd In the Wichita mountains
OF OklahoIng was the first one estab-
lished under direction Of the depart
ment Of AGrieulture and when placed
there In 1906, consisted OF is animals,
being the gift OF the New York Zoo
logical society. i has now increased
to more than 100 specimens without
outside additions. Two new herds were
established during the last year, one in
Sullys Hill park, N. D., and the other
in PASCAL National Game Preserve, N.
C. Other herds are maintained in
