Senators regarding Mr.. watson's In
dianapolls statement. It would
cause the greatest surprise II It is
found that Mr.. Watson correctly
represented the Presidential views
on the bonus in his address.
The majority OF Senators. as al
ready said. are quite sure Mr.. Wat
son merely reflected his personal
opinion as to the prospects of bonus
legislation, and not those of the
President. Mr.. Harding's positions
has been made perfectly clear in the
public statements made by him that
he does not view with approval any
bonus legislation that is not financed
with a sales tax.
Democratic Senators manifested
more interest in bonus legislation
yesterday than at any other period
OF its turbulent and spectacular his

! by Chairman McCumber has caused
! a tremendous change in Democratic
! sentiment, but so far has not result
ed in the adoption OF any definite
program.
The Democratic attitude has been
that the cause of that party can best
be served by forcing the Republican
majority TO increase the burdens Of
taxation on the people to the extent
of $4,000. 100000. Many of the

with the votes necessary 10 report
his bill out OF the Finance Commit

The Democratic Senators have
been following a ''go-as-you-please"
plan without reference to or respect
for the policies of the Wilson Ad-
ministration, the logic OF political
emergencies or recognition of their
own leaders. Since Mr.. McCumber's
failure to win the support of a ma
jority OF his colleagues in the Fin
ance Committee the Democratic
position has shifted materially.
The minority Senators have not
fully recovered from their resent
ment against Mr.. McCumber re-
fusal to permit the Democratic /
members of his committee to assist |
in the preparation of bonus bill |
until II has been completed by him
self and other Republican bonus
associates OF that body.
When the Finance Committee /
chairman discovered on wednesday /
hat the ten Republican members
we're evenly divided he announced
hat the Democrats would be per-
nitted to come in and help him to !
Dry his bill from the deadlock thus

Some Democratic Senators who
ire Of broader vision than their as
iociates started discussion Of a def
lite policy regarding the bonus. 1t
vas based on the conviction that a
genuine opportunity of tremendous
political potentialities has been fur
nished by the Republican muddle.
The promoters Of the new plan
which may result the next two or
three days are in favor of taking a
position squarely against the bonus.
These leaders argue that by oppos-
ing the bonus their party would re-
ceive the credit for protecting the
people OF the country from further
oppressive burdens Of taxation.

as it would tend to clarity a num-
Der of questions which are in dis
pute and of which there is doubt.
He expressed the hope, however,
that the board would employ special
counsel. AS counsel for the city as
a whole, Mr. satterthwaite would be
placed in an equivocal position
should he argue in behalf of the
board and against City Council, of
which he also is the legal advisor.
The contemplated action would
take the form of an application to
the Superior Court for the Issuance
cf n write of mandamus compelling
Council to give the school board the
amount due il under the law. 1t is
doubted in legal circles. however,
that II the court Should decide that
the board is entitled to more funds
than allotted to II by the finance
committee of Council in the new
budget, that the board would be
given more than S45O,OOO, for which
il asked originally.
There also is a question whether
the court would grant the board
more money than the city will be
able TO provide unless the tax rate of
S1.90 as now set should be in
creased. For these reasons an exact
Interpretation of the school law is
regarded as urgently needed.
