Washington. April -(Special.) )-There ss surprise in Washington that either of the Alabamians in the House who were 1 loyal to the government during time of war, should have had opposition in their efforts to secure reelection. For dur ing the war they had fine opportunities to do something in a material sense for their districts, and practically all of them took advantage of such opportunities.
 Of all the Alabama members who were able by their efforts to bestow material benefits on their districts, none exceeded Representative Dent of the Second dis trict, or Representative Blackmon aof the Fourth district. And yet each has oppo- stion. Both are experienced in legisla- tion and have attained high rank in com Iaittees. Tn matters of legislation their opponents are inexperienced, and were either elected he would have to start at the foot of tine class, in which position he would be unable for years to come to acheive in a material sense for his peo- pie.
 While neither Mir Dent nor Mir Black mon regards his opposition as formid-

REPUBLICANS JOCKEY
 WITH SOLDIER BONUS

Washington, April 2l-tspeciAL)- republicans are still jockeying with the soldiers bonus. There is not chance for any complete legislation in this con- nectfon prior to the adjournment of Con- gress in June, or the holding of the na- tional conventions.
 The republicans like the democrats
 want to do something for the soldiers who fought the war But they have in- formed the country that they will present in June reduction in governmental ex- pendtures which will prove startling Therefore, they cannot make good with the soldiers unless the soldiers are will ing to abide their time in the light of
 promises that after the battle is over
 we will give you whatever you want" In the immediate present, the demo-
 crats are urging the republicans to do something other than promise In the fall the democrats, if republicans are still in charge, will be compelled to exert them selves to prevent the republicans giving the soldiers more than they require ol,
 ask for Already. there is rumblng on ! the part of democratic thunder Some ] thing is being said as to the inadvisa- 1 bility of giving the negroes a succulent l bonus which will work to their detri- ment."
 The republicans have delayed bonus
 legislation practically one year. In the House they are getting busy. They know that after the House finishes a bill if must go to the Senate andSthat the Sei. ate Will not have time prior to the convention to complete the work There fore, the republicans afe ousy and they | have the soldiers all wrought up over false expectancy. This expectancv however, will, in accordance with demo- cratic conviction, change itself into | chagrin and then into anger In that event. the soldier vote may after all be democratic vote.
 In connection with the bonus, however there are certain points which apparently demand the attention of statesmen rather | than politicians. It has ben determined by the House to discard those schemes such as that proposed by Republican Leader Mondell. involving the giving of farms or homes. It seems to be the plan to give each soldier, sailor and ma
 rine $l for each days service This plan
 would necessitate the production of s1.-
 000, ,00o, 000
 For the raising of the money various schemes are given consideration. One is the taxing of everything purchased one half of l per cent. Another is the tax ing of war profits beyond a certain sum. this scheme being aimed directly at the ] rich men. who as result of war oppor tunities, became multimillionaires over night.
 Another plan involves the payment of ! the sl,ooo,oOo, ,Oo0 from the sum collected as premiums on war risk insurance An other still would turn over to the soldier
 the money collected by the sale of Ger
 man property in the United States, a sum approximating s700 1000. GOO to he increa cod 1 through the collection of war indemnities.
 The soldiers are apparently uncon | cerned as to how the money is raised
 They have indorsed the ''S1 for each days
 service" plan.

Surprise That Blackmon
 and Dent HaUe Opposition
Few Men in Congress Made Better Records During War, Both to the Nation and to Their Distrcts-Repub-
 Hcans Still Jockeying With Soldier Bonus
By HUGH W. ROBERTS

able both were surprised that it deVel- I cped, just as every other Alabamian in
 Washington was surprised. During the war, Mir. Dent was chairman of the House committee on military affairs. He exerted great influence in the location throughout the south of those camps in
 which soldiers were trained for the de-
 struction of the Germans. One of the largest of these camps he located in Montgomery. Because of the existence
 of that camp, everybody in his district,
 with anything to sell, had ready mar
 Ret. ana everyoody Tn one way or an- other was benefited. In addition, MT. Dent secured an aviation field for Mont gomery, and thereby enhanced the value
 of his previous service.
 At present, MT. Dent is ranking demo-
 cratic member of the military commit tee If the democrats carry the elections the coming fall, he will be restored to the 1 leadership of that committee. Were his opponent to be elected, it is highly proob- able that he would tall ot Ianu a place on the committee, or landing, would as- suredly take his seat at the bottom of the table.
 During the war, MT. Blackmon induced the government to buy a large acreage in Calhoun county for the purpose of con structing permanent tralnlng fed and camp. Camp Mcclellan was the result. It served the purposes or war, but un- Like practically all others will not go into the discards. Camp Mcclellan is owned i, by the government, and will be utilized by the government for all time to come. And Camp Mcclellan has a big future. The government intends to abandon 1 Camp Mel Fherson. near Atlanta, in June. 1921 When that abandonment takes place. the troops therein located will be 1 transferred to camp McCIellan. with the result that the future population of that camp will approxnmate 40,O00 men, more people than is possessed by any city of the state with the exception of Birming- ham. Mobile and Montgomery.
 The general opinion in Washington is that NIT. Dent and MT Backmon are two of the most useful members of the Ala bama delegation. This fact, in addition to the service they have rendered has emphasized the surprise in that they have opposition.
 MT. Blackmon is now in Alabama, and MT. Dent, when certain pressing business
 is discharged, will go there. MT. Black mon writes friends here that his elec- ton is apparently assured, anu MT Denl $ sole cause for worrying IS that the news
 is too good.
