sonally denied that he had ever made
any such statement and supplemented
his denial with>the declaration that he
had not changed his mind regarding

Plan of Campaign shifted.
This caused the bonus raiders to
shift their plan of campaign. They
diverted their attention from the main
grab to a suddenly awakened interest
in the welfare of the MANNED. wounded
and sick victims OF the world war
Through the intermediary of a per-
sonal friend of the President the
bonus raiders in the Legion made
complaint that 10000 sick veterans"
meriting medical treatment were un-
able to obtain it in the hospitals built
|or leased by the Government for their
care. A
This statement Immediately aroused
the ire of the President and he caused
an instant investigation to be made
of it. When the facts and figures We're
placed before him he Immediately
communicated them to the press. The
Investigation disclosed the fact that
the declaration of the bonus raiders
was grossly inaccurate. Instead of
there being 10000 sick veterans un-
| able to obtain hospital accommoda-
tons the figures sent to the President
showed that there are now 5000
empty beds in the hospitals under
Government control.
With the completion of progressing
plans for additional hospital facilities
there will be around 10000 more beds
than there are patients within the
next six months SO much for the
declaration OF the bonus raiders re-
garding the treatment by the Govern
ment of it's incapacitated veterans.
The incident is of more than pass
ing interest because it shows that the
ablebodied seekers for Government
cash are still playing the old game.
The cost of caring for disabled vet
Grams is the largest single item in the
national budget. The Government has
already spent s1.72s, ,7sO, 1865, and
bills are pending that will swell this

the next year

TALKS AT YALE MEETING
William Hepburn BuckIer
Also Addresses American
Historical Association.

Special Dispatch to THE New York HERALD.
NEW HAVEN, Conn, Dec. 2S.--F'or-
mer Premier Sir Robert Laird Borden
of Canada spoke tonight before the
American Historical Association. in
session at Yale University. Former
Secretary of State Robert Lansing
presided
Sir Roberts address set forth the
dramatic development of Canada into
autonomous nationhood within the
British Empire. II am of those who
believe" said Sir Robert. that the es-
sential unity of the Commonwealth
has in no sense been diminished by
it's development into an organization
which is virtually Britannia league
of nations. 1t seems paradexi-
cal to affirm that as its ties have in
form become looser they have in truth
become stronger; yet this was DEM
onstrated beyond question when the
storm of war broke upon the world in
1914.
"At London and in Paris during 1913
and 1919 the Canadian Prime Minister
had discussed with the British Prime
Minister, as well as with the Foreign
and Colonial Secretaries. the Importance
and desirability of direct diplomatic rep
resentation OF Canada at Washington.
"The subject was surrounded with
certain difficulties OF international i'm
port, and there was possible danger that
such n step might be taken to imply a
lessening of the ties which connected
Canada with Great Britain and her sis
ter nations. Apprehension ON this sub
ject was eventually removed and finally
an arrangement was reached which was
announced to the Canadian Parliament
in May. 1920. II is in the following
terms: AS a result Of recent discussions
an arrangement has been concluded be-
tween the British and Canadian Govern
ments to provide more complete repre-
sentation at Washington Of Canadian in
terests. Accordingly it has been agreed
that his Majesty, op advice of his Ca
madam Ministers, shall appoint. a Min
lister Plenpotentiary. who will have
charge of Canadian affairs, and who will
at all. times be the ordinary channel of
communication with the United States
Government in matters OF purely Ca
madam concern. In the absence
of the British Amba ssador the Canadian
Minister will take charge of the whole
embassy and of the representation of
imperial as well as Canadian interests "
The speaker referred to the irish Free
state, saying that while the constitu-
tional powers conferred upon the Irish
Free State are defined i'm several in
stances by reference to the political rela-
tions Of the Dominions, and especially
Of Canada, 1t is not improbable. On the
other hand, that the status of Ireland
will have q certain influence upon CON

stitutional development in the other self

stitutional development In the other self

Sir Robert advocated an extension and
the placing upon a permanent basis OF
the conference idea in operation In the
British Empire during the war. for the
sake OF opportunity and means for the
voice of the Commonw as a whole
TO be heard on vital issues affecting for
eign policies especially. He said how
ever. that while the present condition
continues the best that can -be hoped for
is a system OF frequent consultation by
cable, and occasional consultation and
discussion by conference wherever do
mestic political duties permit the Do
minion Ministers to attend"
Referring to the League of Nations
Sir Robert continued I'm like manner
the worlds unity for peace must be
found in the realization Of public right
and International justice and in the
understanding and cooperation that can
only be gained around a common council
board and these essentials cannot be
secured without Il recognized system of
periodical international conferences at
which representatives of the nations
shall meet upon equal footing. Although
denied the powerful aid of the United
States. the League of Nations has accom-
plished great things for the worlds peace
during the last three years. On at least
four occasions the league has prevented
the outbreak OF war in Europe"
William Hepburn Buckler Of London
and Baltimore, who addressed the meet
ing of the Archaeological Institute Of
America and the American Historical
Association, said he was hopeful that
the new treaty now being arranged with
Turkey would give ample opportunity
for archaeological excavations and re-
search. particularly in Anatolia. The
Department OF State. he said. Is doing
its best 10 promote such studies in
Turkey where the Americans are popu-
lar.
Mr. Buclller said that the Anatolian
monuments and documents range through
a period OF 5000 years. from the cunei-
form tablets of South Cappadocia Of the
third millennium. B. c.. to the architec-
ture and Inscriptions of the Seljuk Turks
of the fifteenth century. A. D.: that the
subjects covered includeN- law, politics,
economics, education. language. religion,

all these materials are of interest and

always been a main highway of history
over which civilization has come to
Europe and so to America"

PIanS.Just ms Muddled.

1t cannot be said that the promoters
Of the scheme to make profiteers out
of the national heroes have learned
anything since the refusal of the Sem
ate to override the veto by the Presi-
dent of the measure which political
esSpediency and coercion compelled the
two houses of Congress to pass. As
far as developed the plans of the
sordid element in the Legion seem to
be just as Muddled and indefinite as
any of those proposed during the last
session of Congress.
Even Representative Fordney. the
'1ame duck" sponsor of the bonus IN
the lower house. has not been sue
cessful in devising a satisfactory
formula for imposing the bonus
raid on the taxpayers which. would
meet tho objections raised by Presl-
dent Harding and Secretary ofe'the
Treasury Mellon. Legislative agents
of the Legion and their Congressional
allies are still canvassing the same
impractical. absurd and even grotesque
schemes which figured during the
consideration of the bonus raid in the
last session.
None of them has evolved a plan
that will stand the acid test. Not
one of the projects for which the
bonus promoters in the Legion are
trying to work UP enthusiasm has
proposed any plan for raising the
$4,000. 100000 to pay the bill without
imposing further taxes on the people
of the country. who are vigorously
protesting against those which now

The mercenary element in the
american Legion, which Senator John
Sharp Williams charged yesterday is
ambitious to degrade heroic soldiers
to the level of war profiteers, is back
on the job again.
The announcement recently made
that the thirty fifth bill to raid the
Treasury Of s5,OO0,OOo,O 900 will shortly
be presented fully confirms the pre-
diction made by Senator Williams. The
picturesque veteran and wise states
man from Mississippi uttered a proph-
ecy during the final bout over the dis
credited bonus measure in September
which has come true.
Expressing his condemnation of the
raid measure then pending, Senator
Williams said:
Don't worry. gentlemen. Whether
the boys get the bonus this year or
not they will be back next year for
more. the year after for moye. and
every year fw more until the time for
pensions rolls around"

same old Talk Resumed.

There is the same old talk of the
FIVE way plan, the four way plan, the
three way plan. the use of the for
eign debt, the restoration of war
taxes and all the other fly by night
schemes that fell by the wayside a
few months ago.
One of two new angles which have
figured in the discussions between the
bonus raiders in the Legion and their
Congressional allies is for a free tax
bond maturing In twenty years and
paid up insurance policy. A year
ago the bonus raiders were demanding
spot cash regardless Of the manner
in which IL Was to be raised and de-
spite the lack of funds In the Treas
ury to pay the shot.
The bonus raiders have discovered
that since the last defeat OF their
scheme to burden the country with
more taxes for the benefit of able
bodied men capable of earning their
own living there has been trefnen-
dous change in Congressional senti-
ment. A few short months and an
intervening election has made all the
difference in the world The next elec-
tion is two years Off.
Consequently Senators and Repre-
sentatives are not now displaying the
same fear,of political reprisals that
plunged them into panic three or four
months ago. reduced them to- abject
servility and made them easy prey
for the mendacities of the bonus raid
ers in the American Legion.

More than 1900 cases were found

Becker. Avondale, Cincinnati, were
arrested in connection with the dis
covery and held under bonds of $1,000.
Though armed with a search war
rant issued by Oscar H. Roetken,
United States Commissioner of Cow
ington, the prohibition agents were
forced to break two locks sealing the
warehouse because men in charge re-
fused to aid them in the search.
Becker, who said he was acting I'M

dent of the Old rs Company, and Hax
Morris, also an officer of the distillery,
refused to permit the officers to en-
ter, even after they had obtained the
search warrant, the latter later re-
ported.
The empty cases all were found in
the free warehouse, where they had
been stored preparatory to removal by
legal permits. No examination was
made of the bonded warehouse, which
is under direct charge Of government
and gaugers.
Prohibition officers promised furth-
er developments in the case, but
would make no announcement of ac-
ton to be taken.
