FOR
SOLDIERBONUS
Hope to Aid Ex-Service
Men After u. S. Adjusts
Funds
BOND ISSUE
is IMPRACTICABLE

WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.-Adlustment
OF the nations financial situation
must be worked out before the con-
sideration to adjust compensation for
former soldiers can be taken up. ac-
cording to the views expressed by
Senator Harding, in an interview with
Stars and Stripes, a veterans pubkca-
ton, whichj was made public here to-
day. Senator Harding expresses the
conviction that every consideration
should be given TO the men and
women who served in the war but
points out the difficulty OF additional
expenditures while the country is
still saddled with a tremendous war
dCbt.
How much would a cash bonus
COST" Senator Harding is quoted as
asking. "P.rhaps S2.OOO,OO0000. Now,
with our present Liberty Bonds be-
low par, what would be the result If
we proceeded TO issue more bonds ?
During the war. OF course, the people
Of the country laid their all on the
altar of their country, Just as the
soldiers laid down their lives. Can
we honestly say that conditions are
now the same? II we did sell bonds
TO pay the proposed bonus and 10
meet present conditions offered a
higher rate Of interest than on our
previous Liberty Bonds, what would
be the effect on those bonds out
standing?
