Ways and Means Committee, which
have been struggling with the prob
lem Of raising the funds for the
bonus, that he would give them an
answer on their latest proposal to-
morrow afternoon.
National Wrath Over Plan.
Leaders in Congress admit that the
eight point plan of taxation proposed
by the House Ways and Means Com
mittee for raising the needed funds
has been tested by public opinion and
wrath at the proposal has swept
through the nation like wildfire.
Representative Longworth (Ohio), a
member of the subcommittee in charge
of raising the bonus fund, said to-day
the eight point tax plan was as fair
and equable as any which can be de-
vised. He declared that. il the nation
would not stand for II. then ii will
not stand for any system of taxation
for the fund. which lsaves the only
alternative the bond issue plan under
consideration"
Advocates OF the bonus say the bond
issue plan would not affect the bond
market to any extent and would be
the best means of raising the funds
But there Is a strong feeling among
some Of them that Secretary Mellon
will put his foot down on the proposal
and that he may be made the political
goat"
President Harding talked over the
telephone to-day with Secretary Mel
Ion, Senator McCumber, chairman Of
the Finance Committee, and Chairman
Tordney about the proposed bond
issue.
While Mr.. Mellon refused point
blank to make any comment concern
ing the proposal. 1t was learned from
authoritative sources that his posi-
ton on that matter has not changed
from tho stand he took on January
"a, when in letter TO Chairman Ford
ney he declared such a plan was not
feasible. Although much pressure Is
being brought 10 bear upon Secretary
Mellon by the Republican leaders who
desire him TO pull them out OF
hole" the indications arc ho will con-
slider first the condition Of the Treas
ury and put his stamp of disapproval
on the whole proposal
Fordney's Explanation.
Chairman Fordney. OF the House
Ways and Means Committee. In ex-
planning to-day the suggested bond
issue said Il was proposed TO raise
about 500, ,000. 900 in that way quar-
terly for the next two or three years.
He thinks the Treasury could float
the bonds with ease and the issue
would not seriously affect the market
for Victory and Liberty bonds.
Representative Longworth said he
thought s125.000,00o worth of bonds
would be needed for the first install
ment OF the bonus, and that they
should be marketed at once. so that
the first payment could be made to
the soldiers on October 1. Mr.. Long
worth added that Il would require
some s400. .000, 900 to finance the bonus
tho first year and perhaps the same
amount for the following two years.
during which time a large number of
the short service men would be paid
Off. After that. he said, part OF the
fund needed might he raised from in
terest or sale of bonds obtained from
foreign Governments for the war debt
owed TO this nation.
There is no denying the fact that

mittee and the House Ways and
