VETERANS TO
 DISCUSS BONUS

Cleveland, July 14-Bonus for war veterans will be one of the principal subjects discussed during the second annual convention -of the Rainbow Division Veterans Association, organ ized from units from 26 states, which opened a four day session here today Early indications were that it would be brought up at today s session
 The question was expected to pre- cipitate a lengthy debate.
 Although the last convention at Birmingham endorsed the bonus plan, and its supporters believe they are still in the majority, many of the chapters of the organization are un- derStood to have instructed their delegates to oppose the plan until disabled soldiers have been cared for.
 Perpetuation of the division as a national guard organization through action of congress and the war de- partment. also will be taken up. An other subject of discussion will be whether the Rainbow Division shall continue in it's present form or be divided into regimenta1 associations with a national organization.
 A campaign to move the headquar- terS of the division from Columbus to Washington was started today by rep resentatives from the District of Co., lumbia chapter. They contend a Washington office would be better able to handle legislation affecting the veterans and to supervise the col lection of compensation for wounded men.
