SOLDIER BONUS BILL
VETOED BY HARDING
President Sets Forth Number
Of Reasons for Returning
Bill Without Approval.

| Notwithstanding soldiers bonus
bill failed of enactment NedheSuaE'
the senate sustaining President Haru-
;ns's veto. Previously the house hao
overridden the veto by large margin
The senate roll call showed "A yeas
| to % nays, or four less than the t"o-
thirds majority necessary to enact 'he
measure without the presidents APP
prevail. The vote in the house was ZOO
to 50. or so more than the required
number
The house vote on the first passage
of the bonus last March 23 was so"
/ to 10. or AIS to one, as compared Win
ATT to one Wednesday. The senate
. vote Wednesday compared with ~ 10
/ %. by which the measure was lirSt
passed on August 81.
Washington. President Harding We
toed the soldiers bonus bill Tuesday,
/ informing congress in written mes
! sage that while he was in accord WIN
the avowed purpose of the measure
he did not subscribe to its provisions.
The executive action was regarded
| generally in Washington as making iin-
+ possible bonus for the world war
veterans. at least for some time TO
come. as it appeared to be almost Ger
tain that the veto would be sustained
by the senate.
Mr.. Harding sets forth number or
reasons for returning the bill to the
house without his approval These IN
clude:
Failure of congress to provide a
means for financing.
That inevitably the bonus would
mean increased taxation.
That the legislation would wipe out
everything thus far accomplished TO
reduce government expenditures wher-
ever possible.
That a peace bestowal on the ex-
service men was a perversion OF pub
lie funds, and suggested that future
defense is to be inspired by compensa-
ton rather than consciousness OF duty
to flag and country"
That to add to one-sixth of the total
sums of the public debt for distrlbu-
ton among less than five million or
11O,OOO,OOO people would undermine
confidence on which the nations cred
It was builded and establish the pre-
cedent of distributing the public FUNDS
whenever the proposal and the num-
bers affected make it seem politically
appealing to do So
That the $4,000, 100000 maturing
debt in the next six years would be
difficult to meet without adding the
complication of added borrowing on
account of bonus.
That the adjusted service certifi-
cate plan of payment with it's bank
and government loan provisions was
little less than a certified inability of
the government to pay and invited "a
practice of sacrificial barter" by the
veterans.
Asserting that this obligation would
cost more billions than / 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 de-
pendent, and asserted that the total
cost of this work with insurance liza
bility added probably would exceed
SIS, 900, 100000.
