Catholics Should Ask for Excuse.

BOSTON, March 3.-The controversy
among the citizens of Brandon, Vt, with
regard to the suspension of So Catholic
students from the high school is a matter
to be settled by the state board of educa-

ents who prefer to have their children
not hear the Bible read before school

FOR OVERSEAS MEN
Wants Service Men Given
an Option of Selecting
Homesteads - Declares
Soldiers Have Received
Nothing But Lip Service
Deserve as Much as Ex-
Soldier Congressman
Soldier Congressman

WASHINGTON March. 3.-Another
row occurred today at hearings before
the house ways and means committee
on soldier relief measures. 1t came
when Edward H. Hale, representing
veterans of foreign wars, told the com
mittee that statements made yesterday
by Franklin D'Olier, commander of the
American Legion, were "erroneous and
should be contradicted = A storm of
protest resulted, but the chairman re-
stored quiet by ruling that unless or
der could be maintained the hearing
would be discontinued. After five min
utes of wrangling among members, dur
ing which several started to leave, the
chairman ruled that witnesses should
not criticize other organizations.
Hale urged passage of a bill author
izing relief to discharged service men
at the rate of $50 month instead of
$50 with an additional grant of 800
to those who served overseas. He also
favored the passage of the Morgan bill
which would give service men the op-
tion of the selecting of homesteads.
. How could the money be raised for
this bonus?' asked Representative
Kitchin. There is a public debt of
$26,OoO,OO0,OoO now"
"Our plan, said Hale, "would be
to tax all incomes above $4,000 at the
rate of two per cent, graduating that
until seven per cent would be charged
on incomes above $1,000,000 This
would provide $2000O0,00O, according
to the internal revenue bureau
Hale said clip appreciation and
nothing more had been extended tC
discharged soldiers. "These men, ht
declared, ''have been turned back t.
civilian life with go pieces of silver ant
they have been brought face to faet
with the ingratitudc of the republic
The only wonder is that they have
stood so long this apathetic attitude o,
congress Members of congress re
ceived back pay when they were dis
charged from the army and returned
to the house, he said, adding tha
others were equally as deserving as cx
soldier congressman.
