SOLDIER BONUS
SEPARATE BILL
Chairman Fordney Consents
to Divorce it From
Debt Bill
Leaders of Party Hope to Finance
Measure From Allied Bonds

Washington. Jan. 1S.-A COM
promise has been reached between
the White House and the Capitol upon
the question of soldier bonus-debt re
funding legislation. The outstanding
terms are:
Passage of soldier bonus bill along
the broad lines of that already adopt
ed m the House without any reference
to foreign indebtedness.
Postponement Of action on new
taxation as a means of meeting the
bonus payments until it can be learn
ed whether or not those payments can
be met out of collections. from abroad
or from the proceeds of the sale OF
reSunded foreign bond issues.
information regarding this COM
promise came from the most au-
thoritat;ve sources this afternoon tol-
lowing conference between Presl-
Gent Harding and Chairman Fordney,
of the House Ways and Means Com
mittee, at the latter's residence.
Each side, it is stated, found it nee
essary to make concessions to avoid
a clash between the President and
Congress. The Congressional leaders
will not tie up bonus legislation with
the Refunding bill, which is in line
with the ultimatum delivered by MI
Harding. He had given notice pr.
yately that he would veto bonus bill
which had been consolidated with that
providing for refunding.
The President will not insist literal
Nv that the bonus bill provide on its
face for raising the money to cover
the deferred compensation payments,
it is stated further, Notwithstanding
his demand to the contrary OF te"
days ago. This is victory for the
legislators.
The President, it seems has become
convinced that it would be worse poll
tics to lay fresh tax burden upon
the country for the purpose OF rails
ing soldier-bonu money than it would
be to scrap the bonus legislation al
together. The support to be lost
through resentment against higher
taxes, he has been told. would be more
serious than that which would result
from soldier dissatisfaction.
Even so, it appears, Mr.. Harding
insists that bonus legislation, if it is
passed at all, must be n good faith
that the former service men be not
given an empty promise, and that Con-
gress must be prepared to raise the
bonus money by taxes if it cannot be
raised in any other way.
