Bonus Sentiment
America Is Big and Rich Let Her

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: A bonus for every soldier who
served us in the World War is in the
heart Of America Whether drafted
or volunteer. whether in camn or
office in America, or III trench or on
h.ing line. overseas. every man offered
his life on The altar OF patriot-
ism. even if no: called upon "to Law ii

was no longer in his own hands. but
in the commands of his government.
If between December and December
10 100000 declared for "co-operative
limitation Of armsment.' how many
millions Of US. think YOU, would de-
clare for a blanket bonus for our
soldiers?
"No question * ever settled until
settled right" nor viii this one be.
When in the worlds history will
America have another such q chance
TO eNalt The patriotism and loyalty OF
her sons? Who would bcgrudge these
men who served the world so well IN
its dire need some token OF recornj-
ton; some small mead of praise .
Why should tue richest nation on
earth be afraid of the dollars it will
cost (billions or otherwiso) to sav
"thank you" to our gallant armies in

Granted petty politics in unworthy
hands and Tor campaign purposes pre-
c,ptated the bonus question in an in.

we're all home even and before the
plan had grown up in the hearts Of The
people.
DO these ienobe facts in any way
alter our relations 10 the men from
whom as nation VIC accepted such
sacrifices? No ndeed'
From the day when "our unknown
soldier" received such honors az Ar
lington, some honor for our known
soldiers, has seemed assured Let
something generous and worthy Of
America be done. Our people Will re

They will buy bonus bonds. They viii

agree that the men who won the war
shall have share in every dollar Of

Why not take few years to unhurder
our national debt without fearing
bankruptcy? Why not pay the bonus

method Of payment would express as

And after all, that is the point.

"Denatured Americans

on Prohibition
To the Editor Of The Tribune.

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: | have derived much amuse-
ment. if not information or inspira
tom from the letter Of my fellow Jer-

Tribune last Sunday. Whenever Mr.
Maxim takes his pen in hand to write
! about prohibition he gets real excited
| and throws rhetoric around regardless
Of consequences.
He would have us believe that the
Spirit of li76 WAS booze; or rs he
supcrlstivcly phrases it. "Thosc old

make the home hoocla OF to-day seem
like soda water" Those "rngged Con

and brain that framed tho pronuncia-
ment" Of freedom, The Declaration OF

liberty, the Constitution Of the United
States; and the same arm it was. guild

glass to the lips that said, Give me

This means that the founders of this
Republic drank liquor. Sure they did
They also kept slaves. and slaughtered
the aboriginal Americans, and classi-
tied women with their chattels. Their
descendants have progressed as they

learned that the Liberty Bell that pro-
CLAIMED liberty throughout all the land
unto all the inhabitants thereof,' was
merely sounding brass so long as four
millions Of human beings were traf-

the Thirteenth Amendment. They
learned that the guaranty in what Mr..
Maxim terms "our architrave of lih

Reply to Mr.. Maxim
America s Separatencss
To the Editor OF The Tribune.

TO the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: France has heen much in tho
headlines Of late, and there seems &c
be 8 lsmentable and growing tendency
to befog the public mind in regard to
her policies and the fundamental CUES
tors under discussion. TO cite one
example: France Ignores American
Loans" This, OF course, Is prcpos-
ferrous. As q matter of fact. there
pro baby is nothing which is giving
French fnaucierS and statesmen more
concern than this staggering war dobt.
Nor is il hard to find legitimate rea-
CONS to explain why France omits from
thc 1922 budget any provision for the
payment of interest on her debt to the
nited States. in the first place. there
s still ground for hope that Congress
VIII defer its demand for interest pay
nent. Secondly. France knows only
200 we'll that If she is ever to pay the
principal of that debt she must now
eNpend all her energies, all her re-
sources ON rehabiitating her indus
tries. on maintaining the integrity of
her frontiers and on demanding fulfill
ment Of the Treaty Of Versailles.
Il is shocking to hear any American
sugeest that the pound of flesh" be
eNacted from France. America does
not need this blood money and should
DC ashamed to ask for it. 1t is shock
ing, ! say. for America to press France
for payment when our own pockets
are' bulging with war profits and her
people are struggling for the bare ma
terial neccsSaries of life. OF all ma
tons IN the world, France has the most
just claim to Americas 5 generosity and
understanding or trust even without
full understanding. As the mighty
Nashington declared. she IS entitled
tor all time to the most unaterable
gratitude Of the American people
Secondly, it is reported that the
French budget provides for The ex-
penditure Of $3.50 per capita for it's
srmy and navy, while the United
States Is eNponding only $50 for the
same purpose. If the first figure is
based on the population in France
alone the statement is misleading. be-
cause two important factors are lost
sight Of; - France is in duty bound
to protect her colonies. whose popula-
tions number many millions. and ~
the population of France alone is.
roughly. little more than one-third Of
The population OF the United States.
Our government, therefore, is actually
spending very much larger sum for
national defense than France. whereas
our danger. immediate and future, is
infinitely less.
