other
II was authoritativoly indicated
that Poincare presented to Lord
Curzon assurances from Kemal that
he will not attempt to move against
the neutral zone at present.
The French emphasized, 1t was
understood, that England stood
alone in her proposed action against
the Turks. Poincare, it was stated,
pointed out to Curzon q solid con-
tinental bloc of nations-France,
Italy, Rumania, Jugo-Slayia-aganst

Washington, Sept. ?0.-The house
today took up President Hardines
veto of the soldier bonus bill. Be
fore night, leaders expected to get
a vote overriding the veto.
The house proceeding was mere
formality as IL was a foregone con-
olusion that more than the neces-
sary two thirds would vote to make
the bonus law in spite of Mr.
Hardings emphatic objections to It,.
Interest in the bonus fight cen
tered, therefore, in the senate, where
both sides today claimed the votes.
II was apparent that in that body
the veto would be sustained or
over-ridden by a scant margin. The
advantage today appeared to rest
with Mr.. Harding and the anti
bonus senators. The senate prob
ably will take up the veto tomorrow
The presidents vigorous message,
delivered late yesterday to the
house was counted on by anti
bonuscrs to give some senators who
have already voted for the bonus
an "alibi' for changing their posi-
tions now. The clear picture Mr..
Harding painted of the financial
disaster the bonus would bring about
II irsisted on at this time was ex-
pected to be used by number OF
senators in explaining to their CON
stituents Why they changed front
Points Harding Made.
In his message-by far the most
pojnted and vigorous he has dellv-
cred since entering the white house
Mr.. Harding told congress:
That he could not approve the
bonus bill because it failed to pro-
vide means for raising revenue TO
nav the $4,OOO,0OO0OO bonus.
That, while the American people
will never cease to be grateful to
chose who served in the war they
are not under monetary obligation
a. those who came through the war
unscathed and who, while they were
in the service, did not expect a
bonus.
That the bonus bill puts patriot
ism on cash basis and that in so
doing. it is inadequate and stingy
and furthermore suggests that IN
the future men will join the army
Tor money and not because OF duty
to flag and country.
That the certificate plan OF de
ferred payments provided by the
hill is certified inability of the gov
arnment to pay, perversion OF the
public credit and economically un
sound. in that no provision is made
10 meet the eventual liability.
To the injured, disabled ant
diseased he said, the country owes
an undeniabel obligation, which il
il paying and will pay with unstint
ed generosity.
Hanford MacNider, commander o.
the American Legion, in signed
statement, took issue with Mr.. Hard
ing on the veto. N
"The Legion feels this to be
lust obligation" said MacNider
