CONFEREES REACH AGREE
MENT ON BONUS BILL
Bill to Be Reported to House Today
Not TO Be Called Until After
Tariff Report

ees OIL the soldiers bonus bill reach
ed an agreement late today and it
was announced that the measure
would be reported tomorrow to the
house. 1t will not be called up there
however until after the conference
report on the tariff bill has been dis
posed Of, which may be on Wednes-
day or Thursday. After the house
acts, the bonus will go to the senate
where also it is to be put behind the
tariff.
Four major changes were made in
the bill in conference. They were:
Elimination of the Simmons
amendment authorizing the financing
of the bonus out Of interest from the
foreign debt. y
Elimination of the land reclama-
ton feature which, under the senate
plan embodied in the Smith-McNary
reclamation Dill, would have lnvolv-
ed an expenditure Of $350,OOO, 600.
The limiting Of the time III which
veterans might file applications for
bonus to january, 1923.
Acceptance of the house provision
fixing the amount to be advanced for
farm or home aid to the amount Of
the adjusted service credit increased
by 25 per cent in place Of the senate
plan of amounts ranging from 100
per cent of the adjusted service cred
lit if the application were made In
1923 to 14O per cent if applications
were made in 1923 or thereafter.
No important change was made in
the adjusted service certificate op-
ton, with its provisions for loans TO
veterans by banks in the next three
years and for government loans
thereafter. The vocatioai training
aid option and the provision for cash
payments to veterans whose adjusted
service credit would not exceed sou
also were unchanged.
Much of the three hours session
of the conferees was understood "
have been devoted to a discussion OF
whipping the bill into such shape as
would meet the publicly expressed
objections Of President Harding. 1T
was represented by some of the Re
publican managers that the measure
probably would have a better chance
of presidential approval without the
Simmons amendment and the reclaim
alton option and, accordigly, those
were voted out.
There still was no official intorma-
tion as to whether Mr.. HARDING
would approve the measure in Its pre-
sent form, but proponents believe ne
WILL while opponents are firmly OF
the opinion that he will not. Owing
10 promised fight on the tariff bill
conference report in the senate, 1t
NAV be ten days before the measure
reaches the White House.
Two Of the ten conferees-SeAa-
tor smoot. Republican, Utah, ana
Texas, voted against the bonus as
finally perfected. Senator Simmons
was among those supporting the mea-
sure.
