FOR NEW BONUS PLAN
Republicans of the House Body
Decide on Program.
Cash Bonus, Aid in Buying Land or
City Homes, or Insurance for
Service Men.

Washington, April 30.-Republican
members of the house ways and means
committee virtually decided to include
in their soldier relief program a plan
Of paid-up insurance, its value to IN
crease annually by compounded inter-
est, and on which loans could be OBJ
tanned from any post office.
With this addition, ex-service men
might elect any one of the five follow
ing plans included in the Republican
program:
A cash bonus of s1.25 day for each
day of service.
Aid in buying farm land, to be re-
claimed by the government
Aid in buying city homes.
Aid in their education; or, insur-
ance.
To popularize the last four plans,
the Republicans propose to allow $1.75
a day for each day of service, instead
Of the $125 cash bonus as the basis
for computing aid.
The insurance plan was said by
committeeman to be the most attrac-
tive. The average period Of service
for world war veterans was 400 days,
they said, explaining that under the
insurance plan the. average veteran
could receive a paid-up insurance pol
icy Of $1,857. payable to him in cash
at the end of 20 years, or Immediately
to his heirs in the event of death.
The loan value of the insurance
would not accrue until the end of the
third year the plan had been in force,
and at that time an ex-service man
with record of 400 days service
would be entitled to loan of SOL.
This would be the cash value Of his
certificate" at that time at per
cent interest compounded annually.
Similarly, the veterans of 100 days
would be entitled to paid up 20
year endowment insurance of 1854,
with cash surrender or loan value
Of $137 in three years; the 200-day
veteran TO insurance Of 1923, with a
loan value of $275; the 30O-day vet
eran to insurance Of 1892. with a
loan value of Sab. and the 500day
veteran to insurance of $2,321. with
loan value of $3.50.

Government Divided Against It.
self" Says Assistant Sec
rotary LeffingWeIl.
PENNY WISE, POUND FOOLISH
While Country Faces Crisis, Many PEG,
pie Have Turned Gamblers and
Wasters-Opposes Bonus and
Increased Pensions.

New York, May 3.-The govern
ment of the United States "is dead
locked against itself, government of
obstruction" Assistant Secretary Lef-
f1ngwell of the treasury declared in
speech before the Academy Of Politi-
cal Science
Failure of the government to deal
in constructive way with any one
of the vital national problems he at
tributed largely to the fact that the
government is divided against itself"
TT is at least questionable" Mr.. Lef-
fingwell continued, whether the prog
ress of reaction would have been so
complete or so disastrous if our insti-
tutions had not given this country,
during the most critical period of the
worlds history, a government divided
against itself, and therefore incapable
of effective leadership in national or
international affairs.
''At this most critical moment in the
history of Europe, when financial and
economic stake in Europe's affairs is
so great that disaster there could
mean only disaster here, many of our
own people have turned gamblers and
wasters For plain living and high
thinking we have substituted wasting
and pickering. We enjoy high living,
while we grumble at the high cost Of
living"
There is only one remedy, Mr.. Lef-
fingwell said. The nation must get
together, stop pickering and face the
critical situation which confronts the
world as we should foreign war;"
Government expenditures must be
cut to the quick" he said, and 1--WE
must abjdre bonuses and realize
promptly on all saIeable war assets,
including ships, applying the proceeds
to the war debt" He argued for a
national budget with teeth in it."
Mr. Leff1ngwell assailed the govern
ment's administrative policy as ''pen-
ny wise and pound foolish" reciting
how congress had struggled to effect
economies at the expense Of efficient
administration while it takes time to
add $65,G0O,0O0 to Civil war pensions"
Instead of telling the people frank
ly and boldly he said, that prices
are high because they are wasting, we
fix prices and prosecute profteers in
order that the people may build more
and pay less Instead of telling the
young men who were drafted to fight
the war, and who came back better
and stronger and more fit to fight their
own battles than they ever were be-
fore, to go to work and save their
money and look out for themselves
as any self-respecting man should, we
listen complacently to their organized
demands for a bonus, euphemistically
called adjusted compensation
Senator Edge told the convention
that there is too much government
in business and not enough business
