WASHINGTON, Aug 24.-CBy A.
P)-The soldiers bonus bill received
but little attention today IN the SEN

Chairman McCunber OF the finance
committee yesterday that there was
danger that the former service men
would not respond in the time of
crisis unless bonus legislation were
enacted. He declared he had no
such low opinion" OF the veterans.
Sen. Underwood declared the
measure was not an adjusted COM

properly named by the public-a
