Bonus Bill Vetoed
By Chief Executive

President Harding vetoed the sold
iers' bonus bill Tuesday, informing
congress in a written message that
while he was in accord with "the
avowed purpose" of the measure, he
did not subscribe to its provision.
The executives action was regard.
ed generally in Washington as max
ing impossible a bonus for the world
war veterans, at least for some time
to come, as it appeared to be almost
certain that the veto would be sus-
tanned by the senate
President Harding set forth a num-
Der of reasons for disappearing the
bill. These included:
Failure of congress to provide q
means of financing.
That inevitably the bonus would
mean increased taxation.
That the legislation would wipe
out everything thus far accomplished
to reduce government expenditures
wherever possible.
That a peace bestowal on the for
mer service men was "a perversion
of public funds" and suggested that
future defense is to be inspired by
compensation rather than conscious
ness of duty to flag and country"
That to add one-sixth of the total
sum of the public debt for distribu-
tion among less than 100000 of no.
100000 people, would undermine con-
fdence on which the nations credit
was builded and establish the pre-
cedent of distributing public funds
whenever the proposal and the num-
bers affected make it seem politically
appealing to do so"
That the $4,000, 100000 of matur-
ing public debt in the next six years
would be difficult to meet without
adding the complication of added
borrowings on account of bonus
That the adjusted service certif-
cate plan of payment. with its bank
and government loan provisions, was
little less than a certified inability of
the government to pay, and invited
practice of sacrificial barter" by vet
Grams.
That the bonus would not dimin-
ish the later obligations in the way
of pensions to the world war veter-
ans.
Asserting that this obligation would
"cost more billions than I venture to
suggest" the president declared that
rational financial policy today is
necessary to make the nation ready
for the expenditure which is certain
to be required in the coming years"
Mr.. Harding also called attention
to the sums now being expended for
the care of the diseased, disabled or
dependent, and asserted that the to.
tai cost of this work, with insurance
liability added, probably would ex-
ceed $25,000, 100000
Only once did the president refer
to the interest on the foreign debt,
out of which proponents of the bill
have contended it could be paid. He
told congress that the government
was facing a deficit of $3.50 900, 900
during the current fiscal year and
further deficit for the year succeed
ing, "even. after counting upon all in
terest collections on foreign indebted
ness which the government is likely
to receive"
