BONUS PLAN ATTACKED

The land settlement provision OF
the proposed soldier relief bill en-
bodies p vast scheme to foist upon
the country reclamation projects
costing billions of dollars. William
r. Wood. Of Indiana, charged on the
floor Of the House yesterday. The
controversy developing over this
plan was accompanied by the devel-
opment of an increasingly strong
opposition in the House to any SOL
der relief legislation at all.
Mr.. Wood said that previous at
tempts to enact into law what is
now contained in the land settle
mont provisions of the proposed SOL
der relief legislation had been made
by Frank w. Mondell. of Wyoming.
the Republican floor leader. and
franklin d. Lane. formerly Secre-
tary OF the Interior.
To Open Up Swamp Lands.
The proposal was to open up about
1oo.oo0.ooo acres Of unirrigated.
swamp and cut-over timber lands in
about ten different States.
The estimate that about 600, 900
former service men would take ad-
vantage of the scheme was based
on the fact that $4,000 replies had
been received from 250.000 question:
naires sent to former soldiers last
year, he said.
Answering his attack. Mr.. Mon
dell said the provision simply ma
tionalizes a policy which has been
proved successful In the
West" 1t was endorsed by every
post of the American Legion which
had studied it.
Formef Service Men Envied.
Ernest r. Ackerman, of New Jer-
sey. admitting that he had changea
his mind on soldier relief legisla-
tion. said that 1t was an injustice
to 100000 Liberty bondholders.
and that former service men were
in an "envied class" He recon-
mended that the crippled men re-
ceive bonds on the nations foreign
debt and that teachers receive more
pay.
Following denunciation by
william r. Green, of Iowa, of the
proposal to raise the money neces-
sary for soldier relief legislation by
a tax on war profits. r. Walton
Moore, of Virginia, attacked the re-
lief legislation as not compensa-
ton but a present money bonus"

TABLE DAINTIES
ONLY FOR RICH
Dealers Say Strawberries
Will Be Forty Cents ALI
Summer Here.

Forty-cent strawberries may be
with US all summer long IL predic-
tions by local retail dealers come
true.
Due to prolonged cool weather In
the South, Strawberries, which in
normal times would sell for about
25 cents a quart. are now retailing
for 40 cents and extra good ber-
ries even more than that.
\ Moreover the growers claim that
labor is scarce and even when
available is high priced and there
fore this increased cost must be
borne by those who love strawber-
ries with their morning cereal or
in the form of shortcake.
Considering the crop of home
grown berries. the dealers declare.
Washington's housewives will in all
probability have to pay winter
prices for summer berries. This is
because of killing frosts and the
high cost of picking. In the good
old days men and women were con-
tent to receive $3.50 a day for pick
ing berries. but today these same
folks can earn 81 or IS a day in the
city and the strawberry crop has to
struggle along the best IL can.
