SAY THE NATION CAN STAND
THE STRAIN

The significant thing is that neither
the proponents nor opponents OF the
soldier bonus differ in their sonti-
mental feeling that something should
be done for the soldiers OF the late
war-somethlng tangible. But getting
down to the bottom Of the whole busl-
ness one finds even the enthusiasts

strain which the plan would nut on
the already overweighted creTt gys-
TEN OF the country.
Those who favor the bill say the
nation can stand the extra tax and
they point out that either a. sales tax
on retail sales above $1,000 q month
OF a retroactive tax on war profits
"ould hit only THE big fellows" But
experience with the vicious circles in
the high cost Of living has show, IN
the past year that the larger copcorns
merely tack the tax on their costs =,
