Soldiers Bonus Legislation in Congress

4 Ii chance Of tpe passage of sol
"a diers' bonus legislation next win
ter seems TO have gone glimmering
Failure of the party platforms TO de-
clare for the proposition seems TO
have destroyed all hopes of favorable
action by congress.
Supporters of the bonus bin had
relied implicitly on the political con-
ventions taking stand on the sub
ject They had gone on the theory
that political pressure from the ex-
service men would be SO strong that
both parties would be sure TO declare
for some form of adjusted cOmpensa-
ton.
The soldiers bonus bill as passed by
the house week before the recent ad-
jOurnment is pending in the senate
committee on finance. The committee
has given the bill no consideration and
may prefer to allow II to slumber
without action during the coming ses-
sion. Officers of the American Legion.
however. are certain to agitate and
probably will force the committee TO
report the bill TO the floor Of the sem
ate.
Even in case the bill in some mirac-
ulous manner should get through the
senate and a conference report is 'ap-
proved by both houses its veto by

Treasury Houston 10 the house ways
and means committee fatty opposing
any bonus legislation, and also by the
attitude Of the administration spOkes-
man at San Francisco in the drafting
of the platform.
Both the Republican and Democratic
platforms declare for proper treatment
of the ex-service men, but both care
fully avoid any specific mention Of
either the cash bonus scheme or any
forms of adjusted compensation de-
signed to aid those who suffered no
wounds.
The effect of both the Republican
and Democratic platforms is TO re-
pudiate the policies of the party lead
ers in the house.
The action of the party conventions,
both at Chicago and San Francisco,
appears to have been vindication for
the minority among house members Of
both parties.
