Republican Leaders Seek New
Compromise.

WASHINGTON, May with plans
abandoned for passing the soldier relief
bill next Monday because the Repub-
lican party caucus last night developed
such opposition to the proposal for
raising revenue by sales tax that
its elimination was declared to be GER
tain. Republican leaders today were
seeking to effect a new compromise.
After being in session four hours,
during which all efforts to obtain the
united support Of the party for the bill
as drawn by the ways and means COM
mittee failed. the caucus adjourned No
date for the next conference was set,
but Representative Mondell, floor lead
er, announced it would be held late
next week.
Supporters of the measure today,
however, were working in an effort
to devise a plan that not only would
swing the support Of "insurgent" mem
bers of their own party to the meas
ure but would also obtain the backing
of number of Democrats.
