BILL IS FRAMED
Ways and Means Committee
Will Report Measure Provid-
ing for a Dollar a Day.
SENATE WILL AGREE
Commissioned Officers and Men
Who Served Less Than Sixty
Days Are Counted Out.

Washington, April IA composite
soldier relief bill granting adjusted
compensation at 81 for each days ser
vice to approximately 100000 former
service men will be reported to the
house within a week, Chairman Ford
ney of the Ways and Means Commit
tee announced today. Passage of the
measure by the house IS planned be-
fore May l, senate leaders having an
noUnced the bill would be approved
by the senate before the conventions
in July should it be passed by the
house this month.
With the elimination of all com
missioned officers, along with those
who served less than sixty days or
who were employed in ship yards or
received from their employers the diff
ference between their civilian incomes
and army pay, the number of those
eligible has been narrowed to ap-
proximately 100000. Experts have
informed the committe that the aver
age service is ten months making the
average payment $500 to each man.
Those who We're commissioned after
serving as enlisted men would be paid

No definite plan for raising neces-
sary revenues has been decided upon,
the plan most being favored being a
flat tax of not more than / per cent.

tee has learned from treasury depart
ment officials would net approx
mately $500, 0oO,o or more than
needed. 1t is expected that the other

scented by the American Legion, grant
ing priority in land settlements, home

tional training also will be recon-
mended by the committee.
Although the Ways and Means Com
mittee is expected to report the meas

URGES BETTER
BALINCMETHOD
Senator Ransdell Tells Cotton
Association American Bales
Are Disgracefu'

Montgomery. Ala, April 14-Speak-
ing to delegates at the American Cot
ton convention at the second day of
the convention here today, Joseph E.
Ransdell, United States senator from
Louisiana. explained the old and new
system of baling and handling cotton,
explaining how American cotton bales
reach Liverpool and other foreign
ports in bad condition.
IF ever there was slovenly, dirty,
damaged, disreputable, water soaked,
wasteful and inflammable package it
is a bale of American cotton when it
reaches the spinner on the European
continent; and not only in that case,
but before it reaches the spinner of
New England it is subjected to sub
stantia1Iy the same evil treatment ac-
corded to the exported bale and is in
nearly as bad condition" said the
Louisiana senator.
Stressing the Importance of the new
system of baling and marketing which
he explained in detail Senator Rams
dell said such a method would save
more than a hundred million dollars
and dispense with the use of more
than three hundred thousand railroad
cars annually.
Explaining the new system the SEN
ator said that approximately twenty
millions are invested in gins, and that
this would be about a total loss If
his idea were carried out.
Bradford Knapp of the University
of Arkansas, pleaded with the cotton
association delegates to diversity their
crops, eliminating much of the cot
ton acreage as possible. He presented
figures to show that 1920 does not
promise anything in the way of a pro-
fitable cotton crop. above all things
said DR. Knapp, Il plead for liberal
production of food and feed, and live
stock for the sake of the women and
children of the south.
The figures show that the greatest
per centage of women and children
toll in the fields in the cotton states
than in any other section of the United
States.
Mrs. Giles H. Mathis known as
"Alabama's woman farmer" spoke on
women as Cotton Producers and
Sellers" She said cotton farmers had
depended largely upon women and chill
dren to work and harvest it.
