SENA TIE WILL TAKE UP
DEBT FUNDING AND BONUS

ference to take up the bonus bill i'm
mediately after the funding measure
has been passed was forced by SEN
ators who believe that the two sub
jects are related.
One Of the chief arguments ed
vanced by individual Senators who are
clamoring for the immediate enact
ment of bonus law Is that II satis-
factory arrangements can be made
with foreign Governments substan-
tial percentage Of the amount needed
to finance the bonus proposition will
be assured.
Senate conference to-day Is eaid to
have disclosed the fact that no def
mite plan for providing the money for
the purpose has been devised or ut
least none has been produced that
meets. with general favor. The pro-
posal to use the interest payments On
the foreign debts for bonus purposes
Is regarded as without merit at pres
ent.
The scheme to raise the money
needed by sales tax Is also In an
the Senatorial supporters Of the bonus
plan Eave canvassed the subject thor
oughly enough to justify even a rea-
sonable estimate as to the probable
financial returns.
The fact is that the bonus plan has
become legislative white elephant
Senators and Representatives pri-
vately admit that they doubt the wis
dom of imposing further taxes on the
people OF the country In order to raise
the amount that will be required to
carry out the bonus projects.
The lowest possible estimate Of the
amount necessary to meet the more
moderate OF these plans Is s1.750,000,-
600 with a possible maximum Of
| $4,000, 100000. The authorities do not
appear to know just how much 1t will
take.
The Importance Of the bonus propo-
sition rests largely on political poten-
tialities affecting the individual for
tunes Of Senators and Representatives
who will have to meet the issue In the
coming Congressional election. The
outside promoters Of the bonus project
are conducting systematic propaganda
campaign to compel Congress to pass
bill granting bonuses to all service
men regardless of the financial condi-
ton Of the country and the certainty
OF resentment on the part OF people on
whom tie burden will fall in the
saape OF increased taxation.
One Of the Senators who partici-
pated In the Republican conference
to-day expressed the opinion that
mot half a dozen members of the
Senate are really IN favor Of this
bonus proposition, but they are afraid
to be against It,"
Tie truth is that the Administration
and Congress are really against It
but the possible political consequences
are too serious to be disregarded. The
soldier vote is organized and is likely
to play decisive part in the coming
election.

BRITAIN WILL FIND
DEBT REFUNDING EASY
Alone Able to Resume Inter
est Payments to U. 5.

LONDON. Jan. 10 Thursday. In
connection with the proposed refunding
by the American Government of allied
debts. the London Times says the TASK
Of refunding the debt OF the British
will no doubt prove the easiest and
simplest of all, because Great Britain
is the only country in-a position to re-
sumo the payment Of interest suspended
for period Of three years ending in
April.
Noting that Great Britain Is owed
by foreign countries q great deal more
than she owes the United States, the
Times says that obviously the question
of priority will arise in connection with
the British and American loans to Con-
tinental borrowers.
