WORDS OF WISE MEN

Speak well Of your friends
and, If you cannot do the same
Of your enemies, say nothing.
The men who wins Is the
man who holds on until he can
hold on no longer-and then
doesn't give up.
Cheerfulness is like money
well expended in charity; the
more we dispose Of It the greater
our possession
Let the man who has to make
his fortune In life remember
this maxim: Dare, and The world
always yields II it beats you
sometimes, dare 1t again and 1t
viii succumb.

1nE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION

The so-called soldiers bonus bill
last week passed the United States
senate by vote of AZ to %. It had
already twice passed the house by an
overwhelming majority. However, it
is long road yet until the bill be-
comes law. In fact, it is generally
claimed that it will not become a law.
Pres. Harding, although he pledged
himself to the bonus to get votes when
he was candidate for president, is a
bitter opponent of the bill and has
thrown every obstacle in the way of
its passage. He once went before
the Senate with special message de-
manding that its passage be at least
postponed. Later, he intimated that
he would veto the measure if passed
by Congress. And that's right where
the bill stands now. It has passed
both houses, and will soon be mes
saged to the President. The wealth
fer interests are pinning their hope on
Harding's vetoing the bill
Sec. of the Treasury Mellon has
been an implacable foe of the bill
from the start. Mr.. Mellon is a
Pittsburg millionaire, one of the rich

yard. It is even confidently claimed
!, by their crowd that several senators
who voted for the measure did not
want it to pass, and plan on switch
ing when the bill comes back vetoed
by the President.
The adjusted compensation bill
would not break the; United States.
It would not even jar it financially /.
Had the war lasted only few more
weeks, as much money woulS have
been expended as the whole thing
would ever cost. And nobody but a
fool would claim that Uncle Sam
would have been unable to hold out
financially few weeks longer. Let
Congress cut out some of the annual
"pork barrel" legislation and the
money could be easily raised to pay
the .''bonus. !" The various other ma
tions, less well off financially, have
no trouble in paying bonus.

the enemy when he is elected. certain

When the war was on, those fellows
were willing to do anything to get
the boys between their property and
the enemy. But now that the emer-
gency is over, as cold-blooded prac-
tical business proposition, it is folly
to let go of a dollar more than nee
essary.
There has been great howl from
many of the larger newspapers and
from some of the wealthy business or
CARNATIONS that raid was being
made on the treasury, that the SER
vice men were placing dollar value
on their patriotism, that the country
would go broke if the bill was passed,
ETC., etc. Selfishness, pure and SIM
pie, has dictated most of the howl.
A bonus would need money to pay it,
and those fellows don't pay anything
they can get out Of.
Many Of the service men are just
a little bit too independent by nature
to beg anyone for a "bonus," as it's
enemies have dubbed it. They took
their chances at a dollar a day, while
home wages Jumped to from five to
ten bucks day for almost any ordi-
nary labor. Bonuses were passed
out to the railroads, the shipyard
workers, the clerks IN Washington. A

more wealthy brother because he has
the temerity to suggest that a 'bo-

a ways in equalizing the pay he re-
ceived in the army with the pay of
the civilian who was able to demand
his own price.

The coal strike seems to be patched
up temporarily and the miners have
gone back to work. The settlement
was a very nice arrangement. II
was handled in this wise. The oper.
ators decided to give the men all they
wanted, and to raise the price of coal
enough to pay the men and leave a
little additional profit besides for the
operators. There being shortage
of coal. and coal being necessity,
the public, no matter how unwillinely,
will be required to kick through.
That coal strike was a MIGHTY fine
arrangement-for the operators and
the miners themselves.
