Lloyd George And De Valera Open Their Negotiations

Premier Lloyd George and Eamonn de Valera.

 LIEF EXPENSIVE
Liberalization of Compensation Law Will Cost S350, 100000 Year.

Washington, July 13.-The Sweet bill, to provide more adequate and eff ficient relif for disabled veterans, was halted by d new set of hurdles when it reachmed the Senate Finance Committee today with a favorable re- port from the Smoot subcommittee.
 Some members of the committee ex- pressed astonishment at the probable cost of the bill. which EenatOr Shoot predicted, on the basis of official esti- mates, would run close to half billion dollars annually.
 Although the committee seemed to be unanimous in it's desire to afford every facility for the care and treat ment of disabled veterans, there was nevertheless, a disposition to inquire into Section 13, winch is designed to liberalize the present compensation law Estimates fthe probable in- creased expenditure to carry out the provisions of this section vary, but Senator Shoot thinks it will be close to $350oO0,00o annually.
 Secretary fthe Treasury Mellon, who first called the subcommittee's attention to the section, is scheduled to appear before the whole committee tomorrow, and the members expect to question him closely. Heretofore the administration has made no recommen- dation regarding Section 13. preferring te leave settlement of the question wholly to Congress
 Advocates fthe bill contend that the present law is too restrictive in it's allowances, particularly in failing to provide compensation for ex-seryice men, who are less than 10 per cent dis abled The subcommittee allowed Sec ton 13 to stand just as it passed the House. It's fate is now in the hands If the whole committee

The ease with which he dismisses trusted servants, even those when he has hitherto treated as perosnal friends without explanation of his motive, does not promote, but weakens, the spirit of confidence as it has prevailed for generations in the service of the kings of Prussia ''
