HELP FOR BONUS PROMISED SOLDIERS
 BY US. SENATORS

Washington, Feb. 11-An American Legion delegation was told by Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania, Senate finance committee chairman, that he would favor increase in federal taxation if necessary to provide for the proposed cash bonus for war veterans He ex- pressed doubt, however, whether the legislation could be put through during the present session of Congress.
 Senator Penrose and Senator Mo Cumber, republican, North Dakota, who has charge of the bonus bill, were in- terviewed by the American Legion rep resentatives, including F. w. Galbraith of Cincinnati, national commander, and Gilbert w. Bettman of Cincinnati, chair man of the legion's legislative commit tee. The executive committee of the legion will meet here Monday to discuss the situation.
 The opinion that the American people favor adequate and satisfactory pro- vision for soldiers, their widows and relatives" was expressed by Senator Penrose to the legion representatives.
 T further. told the committee" said Senator Penrose, "that the country was in very bad financial situation and hardly able to meet its requirements and that revenue undoubtedly would fall off to very marked degree in the next fiscal year.
 At the same time I conceded that 1t was teh duty of the government to pro- vide the revenue for this patriotic pur- pose and were it necessary that an add ed tax be levied I would favor these taxes at this short session, but it was obvious that this Is impossible"
 Hope for action on the bonus bill at the present session was expressed to the legion delegation by Senator McCumber If no agreement can be reached regard ing taxation necessary for the bonus provision, Senator McCumber said, the question could be kept open'by deferring operation of the bill until the subsequent Congress could enact necessary 1egis1a- ton.
