FIRST step TO FIND
HOW TO Get MONEY
TO PAY WAR BONUS
(Bv Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE
house ways and means committee, now
that the tariff and the revision are
off its hands for the present at least,
will take up the soldier bonus Ques
ton Immediately after the Christmas
recess. Chairman Fordney announced
today that the committees first order
of business for the new year would be
legislation. Its primary concern he
added, would be to determine how
funds with which to pay bonus can
be raised.
The house membership, according tc
present indications, will be divided in
it's views as to how bonus payments
should be financed. The opinion ap
pears to be general, however. that
such y bill must provide a means OF
raising the funds it intends to dis
tribute-a feature which was lacking

IRE which received the approval of the
house during the last session but
which was placed indefinitely in com
mittee in the senate.
Propose Special Tax
Among the proposals now being put
forward as a means of raising bonus
funds is either a manufacturers tai
or a general business sales tax. Il
is also contended by some that if E
bonus is voted, it should in some way
be linked up with settlements by for
eign nations Of the debt owed the
United States.
House leaders said today there wa:
a growing demand among members

tion next fall, for disposal of the bonu:
question at an early date. Mr.. Ford

a measure. although he made it plail
that he could not state definitely whel

SUBSTITUTION
WILL SETTLE
NAVAL SLASH
American Delegates Agree for
Japan to Substitute Mutsu
u. S. to Save Her New
Warships.
AGREEMENT AT HAND

WASHINGTON, Dec IA. - Agree
ment on the principle issues involved
in limitation of naval armaments was
understood to be practically at hand
as the Big Three of the Washington
conference went into session late to-
day at the state department.
The American delegates, it was said
officially, had agreed 20 the Japanese
reservation for substitution of the new
battleship Mutsu for the old 12-inch
gunship Setsu, on the condition that
the United States be permitted under
the limitation proposal to maintain the
newer battleships, Colorado and Wash
ington, in place of the Delaware and
North Dakota
The final detail remaining to be ar
ranged. it was added, was the modifi-
cation desired by Great Britain in the
armament limitation program to bal
ance against substitution by Japan of
the Mutsu and by the United States of
the two newer ships. This detail was
expected to be arranged at todays
meeting.
Delay Shantune Action.
Meanwhile in another branch of the
conference, in negotiations relating
to Shantung, progress seems TO have
been arrested, temporarily at least, by
misunderstanding between the Japan
ese and Chinese delegates as to their
respective positions regarding finan-
ctal settlements involved in Japanese
withdrawal from the Kiao Chow lease
hold.
The question, however, which will
be taken up at another session of the
Shantung conference today, is not re-
garded by other delegates as likely to
prove cause of serious delay in the
negotiations.
The counter proposal of China for
the purchase from Japan of the Kiao-
Chow Tsinanfu railroad, in Shantung-
province, has been cabled to Toxic by
The Japanese arms conference deIega-
t1on, which has been carrying on oil
rect conversations with the Chinese
delegates in an effort to settle the
Shantung problem outside the confer
ence.
TOXIC, Dec. 1.-THE question of
Japan's acceptance of the ratio of ma
val limitations proposed by the United
States had been referred to Admiral
| Baron Kato az Washington with rec.
/ ommendation by the diplomatic al
visory council. The nature of the rec
ommendation is the subject of much
conjecture in the newspapers hero.
! which generally assume that unofficial
reports saying acceptance with quail
fications, was recommended are cor
rect. The correspondent is advised,
however, by well informed persons,
| that 1t would be premature to accept
these reports as authentic.

Curley Election in Boston
Is Cify's Greatest Upset

BOSTON, Dec 1.-THE election as
mayor yesterday of James NJ. Curley,
who was defeated for reelection four
years ago, was discussed today as one
of the greatest political upsets in the
city's history. Opposed by all Boston
newspapers except one, and withouu
assistance from any recognized leader,
Curley gained a plurality of 2,698
votes over John R. Murphy, the candi-
date of the Good Government associe-
ton.
Revised figures today gave Curley
T4,260 votes against II ,562 for Murphy.
The other two candidates, Charles s.
Baxter and Charles S. O'Connor were
far in the ruck, Baxter polling 1926
votes and o Cannon 10,818. All were
without party designation.
Although the election was among
the closest in the history of the city,
and was marked by extreme campaign
bitterness, there were no disturbances.

Why l Buy Christmas
Seals And Why You
, Should Buy Them
BY
WILL ROSS

When I see Christmas Seals on sale
IN the drug stores and department
stores and sold by smiling young wo-
men in the postoffice Hobbies, or when
little school children importune me to
buy them, do not think OF these
brightly colored little seals as simply
strips of gaudy paper. To me they
are smiling, bright, active little IN
dividuals, each one Of them filed with
one cents worth of ability to help
drive out this scourge OF tuberculosis.
Perhaps tuberculosis means more 10
me than it does to you. Perhaps 1t
does, for have had 1t, and ! know
what 1t means to be shut up for weeks
and months, into the years. fighting
this disease that only time. rest, good
food, fresh air, and persistence can
hope to beat.
And / buy Christmas Seals gladly
up to the limit of my ability. Perhaps
i even stretch this ability bit. For
to me each one Of these seals brings
up visions of well equipped tubercu'
losis sanatoria where those with
tuberculosis are given fighting
chance to get well: of visiting nurses
going into homes 10 relieve those al.
ready afflicted and to protect the well
against the dangers Of contracting the

for know, as you know, that no one
of us can forsee when he or she must

So you and this Christmas should

The L'Anse sentinel. (L'Anse, L.S., Mich.) 18??-current, 1921-12-16

Look for the Christmas seals
Dent wait for any one to ask you to
buy them. The soldiers and sailors,
sick and dying, who will among 9TH
ers, benefit by the sale of these seals,
did not wait to go into action when
you were in danger. Yes, you did
yours, we all did ours. when the ro-
nance and fever of war stirred our
blood and melted our hearts. But
there yet remain among us many of
those who bear the scars of war. And
they are not all scars. They are open
bleeding wounds, gas-filled lungs that
make fertile field for tuberculosis.
If Christmas ever meant anything to
yea, be it the means of remembering
these men-all men and women
fighting the white death.--A. p.
