SOLDIERS BONUS
SITUATION CHAOTIC
Congress Feels That Legisla-
ton Cannot Be Long
Delayed.

Soldiers bonus legislation II
enacted at this winters session of
congress may not embody any spe-
cific plan for raising the necessary
funds.
So chaotic is the situation that
Representative Mondell Of Wyom-
ing. Republican leader of the House,
said yesterday that he is not pre-
pared to say whether bonus legisla-
ton will be included in the program.
for the present session. The House
leaders with the exception OF Repre-
sentative Fordney of Michigan,
chairman of the Ways and Means
Committee. have been disposed to
wait until President Harding con-
siders the financial condition OF the
government such as to warrant
enactment OF bonus legislation.
Influential Republicans of the
House generally realize that senti-
ment throughout the country for
bonus legislation is so strong that
it cannot be long delayed. Many
of these members believe that leg
ent session, even though President
Harding does not actively champion
il.
II legislation providing alterna-
tive plans for adjusted compensation
is passed, but without any provision
for the raising of revenue, 1t will
probably be predicted upon the the
DRY that interest in foreign loans
will become available in time to
supply the funds.s 1t seems certain
that negotiations for funding foreign
loans will not be completed in time
to make available exact information
relative to future interest payments,
but they may be sufficiently ad-
vanced for Congress to take a
chance on their successful conclu-
sion.
In the Senate, Senator LaFollette
has served notice that he will fight
the sales tax to a finish. Senator
Lenroot OF Wisconsin. on the other
hand, although opposed to the sales
tax in general. has indicated that he
might accept Ii as q means of rails
ing funds for a soldiers bonus IL all
other sources of revenue were eN-
hausted. A majority of the sixty
Republican senators have indicated
their approval of a sales tax, but
during consideration of the revenue
bill a majority of the entire senate
was shown to be against it.
Congressional leaders all agree
that the proposal for a soldiers
bonus to be raised by a tax on light
wines and beer will not receive seri.
Gus consideration.
