SOLDIERS BONUS BILL TO
 COME BEFORE SENATE TODAY

Washington, May 30.-The soldier bo- nus bill, passed yesterday by the house. 2S9 to 92, will be received tomorrow by the senate. The measure will follow the regular course and be referred to committee.
 Inasmuch as a recess and possibly ad- journment will be taken by congress Sat urday until after the political conyen- tions, the bonus bill seems doomed to a long sleep in the senate committee. If a recess is taken leaders do not con template reconvening until about Sep tenber 1. Some senators are quite frank in saving that the bill will never get any further and that tomorrow's reference to a committee will in fact be an intern ment."
 Opposition to soldier relief has been more pronounced in the senate than in the house.

AN EFFECTIVE METHOD OF
 CURBING SPEEDING AUToIsTs

Athens, May 3O.-Policemen of this c;tv have an effective and rather unique method of curbing speeding autoists. Ocers posted along the principal streets carry blanks studded with long sharp nails and when they see car ap- proaching at rate they believe is ex- cessive. they drop the plank in front or the machine. If the car IS speeding II cannot be stopped in time, and as a re- s,,It its tires are punctured, but if the machine is proceeding at a reasonable mace it can be stopped before the plank is reached.
 The chief of police finds the system is cheaper than maintaining motor cycle squad, and has the additional ad- vantage of making the capture of speed CTS comparatively easy.
