PLAN COUNTER ACTION

WASHINGTON, April 27.-Soldier
bouus LEGISLATION held the attention of
Congress today, but the developments in
dicate that the leaders are no nearer
a satisfactory solution Of the problem
than at any time during the past month.
The identical bills presented by Repre-
sentative Ratney, democrat, Of Illinois,
and Representative Johnson, republican.
South Dakota, levying a tax on war
profits for 1920, which will result in the
taking by the government of so per cent
Of profits from industry engaged In war
work, reused the business men In Con-
gress to q protest.
BILL TO YIELD
FULLY $1,000, OO0, 900.
It is claimed by the authors of this
bill that It Will yield fully $1,000 100000,
and that this sum will be ample to pay
any bonus that may be voted TO the
former service men.
Business men contend that the taking
of this amount of money from industry

on the business that must be handled II

that would throw the entire country in
disorder and disaster.
IN order to prevent its passage there
will be a quick lineup of those members
of congress who believe that business
and industry are carrying taxes now
about as heavy as it is safe to load upon
them
MOVEMENT MAY
COAKPLICATE SITUATION.
The result of such a movement will
tend 70 create another faction on the
bonus legislation and further complicate
the situation.
The political side Of the question was
emphasized in the house by partisan
speeches made by Representatives Long
worth, republican, Ohio. Green, repub-
Hcan, Iowa, and Garner, democrat,
Texas.
The republicans scolded the democrats
for trying to make political capital out
Of the proposed legislation and the demo
Gratis retorted that the republicans were
seeking TO capture the soldier vote by
the paltry bribe Of 81 or $125 a day
bonus.
