LEADERS SAY SOLDIERS
BONUS FRIENDS MUST BE
CONTENT WITH PROMISE

WASHINGTON. d. c. May g.
Republican leaders Of the house
have abandoned their plans 70 raise
the necessary revenue for a soldier
bonus through application OF a tax
on sales. With not more than so
avowed supporters among the re-
publican majority. the sales tax plan
has gone down 20 defeat.
Until the republican leaders in
the house are convinced that the
sales tax would not place most OF
the burden Of the government upon
the poor and middle classes, no
consideration viii be given 10 sales
tax suggestions.
Now that they have been driven
from the demand for a consumption
tax. the republican leaders are pro-
posing various compromises which
might assist in the enactment ct this
session Of congress OF soldier legis-
lation. IL is the conviction. how
ever. Of members OF the house in
general and republican leaders in
particular that the legislation can
not and will not be passed through
both the house and senate by June
and that the soldiers must be con-
tented with promises in the republi-
can platform 10 be adopted at Chi
cago.
Democratic leaders are for a boz
nus and are willing 70 assist in put
ting through the legislation II the
republicans, who are in control and
therefore responsible, will only make

"A sincere attempt 10 write sane leg
islation, and will not place an undue
burden on the poor and middle
classes and protect the rich.
Defeat Of soldier bonus legis'a-
ton at this session OF congress can
be charged 20 the demand OF "Old
Guard" republicans that a sales tax
be levied 10 provide the revenue.
For years, men with the theories
that a tax should be eQualized
among all persons have insisted on
the adoption OF "A sales tax Their
only argument that the poor wOul d
not carry the greatest burden IS that
the rich purchase considerably more
thai the poor and that the rich
paying n tax on each purchase
would pay a greater tax on his
greatest purchases.
This argument has received the
answer that II the owners OF Stand
ard oil buy a loaf OF bread they
pay no more tax on this bread than
the poor pay.
Those who have opposed the de-
mand for a sales tax insist that the
rich should pay in proportion with
their wealth. They take the posi-
ton that a man with an income OF
100000 a year can better pay a
tax Of so percent on this income and
still have 100000 left, than TO tax
a $1,000 income.
Blind insistence that the sales tax
be adopted brought about the stu
