Only Is Senators
Out of So Favor
House Bonus Bill
Opposition So Strong 1t Is
Almost Certain the Meas
ure Will Not Pass Before
Adjournment This Week

IRON, The Ttbune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, May 31.-Strong op-
position to the soldier bonus bill,
manifest in the Senate, makes it vir-
tually certain the measure as passed
by the House will not be accepted by
the upper chamber before recess, or
adjournment is taken at the end of
the week, ard indicates there Is little
likelihood Of favorable action even
when Congress resumes work after the
political conventions.
The Senate numbers among its mem
bershp few who are strong advocates
OF the hours, many who are lukewarn,
and still more who are openly hostile
Objection to the cash grant provjs on
OF the House measure is particularly
strong among members of both parties.
With the bonus project hanging fire
1T would seem that an opportunity is
furnished for the political conventions
to inject the question into the cam
paign. President Wilson, in indorsing
the platform Of the Virginia Democrats
went on record against an indiscrim-
nate bonus, while urging most liberal
treatment for those who were injured
or incapacitated in service. Repub-
lican Senators express doubt as to the
POAiIlNoi WioNciiA VI SLSdIiy increasing
taxes a this time, and openly question
whether the country and the majority
Of service men thems selves want the
bonus measure adopted.
Among hfty-eight Senators whose
views were sought it was found that
not more than eighteen could be re-
garded as certain supporters of the
House plan. Considerably more than
half the number openly opposed the
project, while nine were uncertain.
Among the eighteen are several who
consider changes necessary in the bill
passed by the House.
Similar sentiment was found to
exist in the Senate Finance Committee,
to which the bonus measure has been
referred and whose task it will be to
report it ou+ on the Senate floor if
approval is given. Among thirteen Of
the seventeen members who expressed
an opinion, seven were fatty opposed,
while six were inclined to regard the
bonus favorably. The opinions did not
follow party lines, although Southern
Democratic Senators are inclined to
oppose most strongly any attempt to
put large sums of cash into the hands
Of negro laborers, who, they assert,
would stop work.
Senate opponents of tho bonus bill
assert they favor most liberal treat
ment for the disabled.

Judge Davies to Help
Check Campaign Funds
Accepts Senate Invitation to Aid
in Framing Law for
Control of Expenses

Judge John R. Davies. campaign
manager for DR.. Nicholas Murray But
ler,. before leaving for Chicago las.
night to take charge of the Butler con
vention headquarters there, said he had
accepted the request of the Senate
committee to assist in formulating
legislation for control of the expenses
OF future Presidential campaigns.
"The investigation of campaign ex-
penditures by the Senate Committee. =
said Judge Davies, has served to
furnish ample proof of the soundness
Of Dr.. Buffers policy for uninstructed
delegates to the Republican National
Convention.
"The battle which has been so siren
uously waged to secure instructed or
pledged delegates has developed moth
ing but bitterness and dissension
among the contesting candidates and
their immediate followers, and has in
no way succeeded in producing an ex-
preston of public sentiment for any
candidate"
New-York tribune., 1920-06-01

industrial ccnters are draining the
farms of skilled and reliable help
W hile wages on farms are lower rela-
lively. they are as high as the farmer
can afford to pay in view of the prices
received for his products
Long time credit with real estate
as security is apparently available to
farmers. There is special need for
short-time personal credit.
Suggestions Received
The fertility of the soil is our great
national asset. 1t is being depleted
very rapidly. Therefore, the govern
ment should do everything possible to
encourage the importation of fertiizing
material at prices which will encourage
farmers to use it.
Farmers need and serve the united
efforts of all at this time to open up
exports, particularly on meat, milk
products and wheat"
Among suggestions received and sub
mitted for consideration are:
"Permissive legislation which will
tend to encourage farmers to organize
associations for the extension Of per
sonal credit. Farm production is
greatly handicapped now by lack of
working capital
More complete monthly reports by
the Department of Agriculture of the
numbers Of marketable livestock on
farms and the prospective demand for
livestock products, both at home and
abroad, to the end that supply and de-
mand may be brought to more stable
basis.
'tarmers generally are opposed ia
natioNal speedways, but will favor good
roads to farmers markets.
There is widespread and vigorous
demand among farmers of the entire
country for legislation which will per
NIT them to bargain collectively"
New-York tribune., 1920-06-01

fundamental Republican tenet, is this:
Just as prior to the war when a
debtor nation we had to export more
than We imported to pay interest and
ether invisible debit items, so in the
postwar period as creditor nation
we must have an excess of imports
over exports---to pay the creditor ma
tion its interest. OF the ultimate
truth of this answer there can be no
question"
Extraordinary Expansion
Accompanying the abstract on inter-
national trade and credits is one on
agricultural policies. in which the com
mittee finds, among other things, that
the producers of meat and milk have
not received price advances in propor-
tion to the advances either on all other
commodities, or on all other farm
products.
On international trade and credits
the advisory committee says in part:
"The broad tendencies in our pre-
war trade were % The decline of ex-
ports of foodstutfs and the growth Of
imports; CD the marked increase of
exports of manufactures; CD the in
in both exports and imports. We were
becoming less and less an agricultural
exporting nation and more and more
an industrial exporting nation.
The war brought an enormous ex-
pansion of exports. but the increase
was confined to two groups-foodstuffs
and manufactures. Exports of food
stuffs increased from S1,757 900, 900,
the total for the four years preceding
the war, to $4,760 100000 for the four
years July l, 1914. to July /, 1918. The
increase occurred mainly in four com
modities-wheat, -four, meats and dairy
products.
But it was in manufactures that the
most extraordinary expansion occurred
From S4,210 100000 in the four pre-war
years, manufactures exported increased
to the enormous total of $11 $50 900. e.
000 The chief gains were in military
exports, cotton manufactures, woolen
manufactures, automobiles and leathe r
goods.
"At the outbreak OF the war 1t was
estimated that we were in debt to the
world between $4,000, 100000 and
S5,000 100000. Then came a funda-
mental change in our foreign trade
situation. In the period from July /
1914, to December 81. 1918, our favor
able trade balance expanded to SILL
s08,0oO,OO0
This favorable trade balance was
settled to a minor degree by an excess
Of gold imports over exports amount
ing to S1,o29,000,000 and by shipping
