Before you link the two facts in your mind with
any suggestion that the men who gave up the most
valuable years OF their life country fought
in the expectation OF rewards, remember the basis
upon which this bill rests
The number Of men who fought and won the war
left comfortable homes. good positions chances
advancement TO fight for $50 a month. Their jobs
were filled by others who drew much higher wages
because Of the need of labor while they were away
The bonus would hep rectify the injustice
placed upon them when this country. calling for
service failed call all citizens of whatever age
to its service and place them upon equality That
was not advisable.
Neither Is it advisable for those who gave such
willing service to remain under the feeling of
justice.
If there was anything for which America fought
1t was justice.
If there be any bill which is based upon justice
at home, it is the bonus measure
1t Is significant that at the same hour these
events were happening at the Legion gathering in
Kansas City Sen Reed was making valiant fight
for the bonus measure. How does this comment
from his lips upon those who oppose the bill strike
you?
"The real argument against the amend
ment is that the republican senators do not
want TO vote on the soldiers bonus. They
say out OF corner OF their mouths that
they can't get money pay the bonus,
while out of the other corner they say they

Frank Loqmis. Loren Muchison and
Jackson Scholz were found to be
guilty of charges of professionalism
brought against them they would
be disciplined. He asserted that
those responsible for the games con
ecrned would also be adequately
punished.
81 believe that the people who
tempt boys to violate amateur rul-
ings are more guilty than those ac-
tually committing the breaches of
discipline" he said.
Mr.. Sprout added that judgment
ought not to be passed by the pub
lie on the athletes involved until
they were proven to be guilty. He
declared that to his knowledge Ray
had always been very moderate in
his experience accounts.
