FOUR-FOLD AID
FOR SOLDIERS IS
COMMITTEE IDEA

WASHINGTON, April 20.-A four
fold soldier aid program, giving the
service men the option of cash
bonus, credit toward purchase of a
farm or a home, vocational training
or paid up government insurance
is now being formulated by the house
ways and means committee, Chair
man Fordney said today.
-Four subcommittee have been
considering the four proposals dur
ing the last three weeks, and 1t Is
expected their recommendations will
according to Mr.. Fordney. The com
bined plan in the main follows de
mands of the American Legion.
All of the four optional PROPOSE
tions would be based on the number
of days a man served-that is, 8
days service would be allowed
Likewise, all of the forms of aid
would be limited to the men who, II
is believed. suffered the heaviest fl
nancial losses by reason of their
service; This class numbers about
ed in the army, navy and marine
corps.
At present, the. committee is con-
sidering proposals to, fix these
day served. The cash bonus sub
committee recently tentatively agreed
to fix the amount for those prefer
ring a cash payment at 81 for each
day, but since then strong efforts
have been made by members favor
ing a larger allowance to have the
sum increased.
The credits planned in other Sec
tions of the bill to aid in home or
land buying, vocational training or
the continuance of government in
cents for each days service in excess
of the cash bonus figure. This add1-
tional allowance is planned to encour-
age the service men to accept one
of the three optional forms of aid in
preference to the cash bonus.
Meanwhile the whole soldier aid
question is causing storm of dis
satisfaction among some members of
the house. A group of Republicans,
ways and means committee in franz
ing the bill, forced a party caucus by
circulation of a petition last night.
This probably will be held tomorrow
or Thursday night. Some members

liberal enough, while others disap-
prove the elimination from benefits

Two Negroes Held
As Suspects in Ohio
Girl Murder Case

STUBENVILLE, O.-Four negroes,
arrested soon after discovery of the
brutal murder of eleven-year-old
Frances South, near her home in
Adena last Thursday night, were
brought to the Jefferson county Jail
here. Under grilling by Prosecut-
ing Attorney Ray Carpenter, one of
them admitted he and his companions
had been in Adena the day of the
murder. They were placed in sep
arate cells, under extra guard.
The victim of the crime fought
fiercely for her life and honor, and
probably was kicked to death, Coro-
ner T. H. Kirk said today upon COM
pletion of his investigation.
According to Coroner Kirk, his in
vestigations revealed that the girl
died from a fractured skull. 1t was
his opinion that she had been kicked
in the head. He said he found evil
dence of a terrific struggle. The
coroner explained that a heel mark
and the imprint of nails were found.
The blow on the head killed her, he
said.
The cord with which the girls
hands had been tied behind her back
was lOGHIlllSu d pdlI O1 1lSI 1dI
by Mrs. w. F. South, mother Of
the child, who is confined to her
bed with influenza. 1t was first be-
lieved that the cord was from the
hat of a soldier. The hat is miss
ing and efforts to find it have proved
futile.
Two foreigners, whose names have
not been revealed, were arrested by
a posse headed by the Rev. A. N. Ash
burn pastor of the Long Run Metho-
dist Episcopal church. The men
were taken into custody at Herrick,
four miles south of Adena.
Practically every person residing
in the vicinity of Adena attended the
funeral services for the child. The
Rev. A. N. Ashburn, who led one
of the posses, conducted the services
in the Long Run Methodist Episco-
pal church.

SAYS Vote of Ireland
Was Overwhelmingly for
Establishing Republic

The people of ireland, exercising
the right of self-determination af-
forded by Americas declaration of
war aims, voted 100000 to 100000
"a proportion far greater than that
which made America democracy in
1776-in favor of establishing the re-
public of Ireland, according to Liam
Mellows, member of the Irish parlia-
ment from East Galway and North
Meath, commander of the republican
army of West Ireland in the revolu-
price of 1000 pounds sterling on his
head
Mr.. Mellows, accompanied by Chas.
P. Sweeney, Washington newspaper
correspondent and representative of
independence, is in Atlanta prepar-
ing for the address of Eamon de
Valera, president of the Irish repub-
lie, who will present the case of the
Irish people at Taft hall Friday
night.
Mr.. Mellows announced that Mr..
DeValera will be accompanied to At
lanta by the Rev. DR.. J. A. H. Irwin,
noted Irish Presbyterian clergyman
and educator, and Mrs. Irwin. DR..
Irwin, said Mr.. MelloWS, is one OF
thousands of leading Irish Protest
ants who have taken their stand for
the independence of Ireland. DR.. IT.

Congregation of Killead, near Belfast,
an dis Convener of the Sustentation
Fund which sustains the Irish Fres-
byterian clergyg. He is also the lead
er of the prohibition movement in the
Presbyterian church in Ireland.
"In my country, England has but
one argument against the expressed
will of 80 per cent of the Irish peo-
ple,'' said Mr.. Mellows, Monday.
THAT argument is force-the force
of 10000 bayonets, hundreds of
tanks, cannon, battleships, airplanes
and all the other sinews of war need
ed by an army of occupation that
Ireland is unwillingly forced to pay
for. -
'The British laws that throttle
Ireland's right of liberty are obeyed
only where the force is powerful
enough to crush US. English prisons
held 5000 Irishmen last year. Brit
ish soldiers shamelessly raided and
devastated 5000 Irish homes during
that time. A trial by jury is almost
unheard of. Yet England taxed Ire
land 85,O00,000 last year to pay for
a government in which the Irish
have no voice. Of this, $63,OO0,OO
was for England's vast military es-
adjustment in Ireland, $40,000,0OO
was to help pay the cost of a war
fought for liberty and democracy;
$50. 100000 was Englands profit"
