PAPAL CROWN.
10000 Crowd St. Peters to
Witness Ancient Catholic
Ceremonial.
SCENE IS IMPRESSIVE
Old Romans Say Reception Accorded
New Pope Has Never Been EqualIsd
In Their Memory 100000
Fall to Get In Church.

Rome-Pius XII was crowned Pope
In the basilica of st. Peters Sunday
amid scenes of pomp and enthusiasm
and in the presence of princes and
dignitaries of the church, the diplama-
tic representatives of foreign coun-
tries, members of the Roman aristo.
cracy and vast assemblage filling
the great structure to the very doors.
The ancient custom was carried out
with impressive ceremonies and the
newly elected pontiff now occupies the
throne Of the first pope reported
crowned, Leo III, who reigned from
795 to SIG. I.
Ancient Precedent Observed.
With the exception of Leo XIII and
Benedict XIV who, owing to the strain
ed relations existing between the
Quirinal and the Vatican, in 1873 and
at the beginning of the World war,
preferred to be crowned in the Sistine
chapel, the coronation of all the popes
elected since the erection Of the bash
lica has been celebrated there.
Plus XI again blessed the crowds
from the outer balcony of st. Peters.
This time nearly 100000 people cheer
ed "long live the pope," and waved
handkerchiefs, many of them multi
colored, and admission tickets to the
Vatican, which had failed to find them
room inside the great church.
Blessing From Outer Balcony.
1t had been officially announced
that lowing to the cold weather" the
pope would not bless the crowds from
the outer balcony but such was the in
sistence and warmth of the cheers,
lasting three quarters of an hour, that
the pontiff finally decided to heed the
call of his children.
Thus, it was long after 1 o'clock
in the afternoon when the Holy
Father appeared on the balcony, &C.
companied by Cardinals vanutelli,
Gasparri, Mercier, and Bourne and be-
slowed the apostolic benediction,
again waving with his familiar little
shake of the hand as he disappeared
into the interior of the basilica.
Previous to this 10000 gathered
within the editice, rising spontaneous
ly, had cheered the Holy Father as
Cardinal Lega placed upon the pope's
head the tiara, emblem of supreme
sovereignty. The cheers continued for
so long that Plus was compelled to
make signs with his hands as If seek
ing silence in order that the ceremony
might continue. Old Romans, who
had witnessed the coronation Of sev.
eral popes, say that the enthusiastic
reception accorded the present pope
has never been equalled in their
memory.

Bureau Budget Calls for Appropriation
Sufficient to Pay 10000 Men and
$4,000 Officers.

Washington-Demand for a reduc.
ton in the size of the army to 100000
enlisted men, or, even to maximum
of $4,000, will be made in the House
when the annual army appropriation
bill comes up for consideration, men,
bers of the subcommittee which is
drafting the measure predicted.
A formidable bloc of representa-
tives, the subcommittee members de.
clared, was preparing to wage a de.
termined fight to limit the armys size
to $4,000 men, while others who favor
reduction had indicated they would
be satisfied If the maximum was fixed
at 100000. Other factions among the
House membership were said to favor
125,000 maximum or to oppose any
reduction in the present size, which
under limitation for pay of enlisted
men approximates $4,000.
War department estimates transmit.
ted through the budget bureau call
for an appropriation for the fiscal
year, beginning July J., sufficient for
the pay Of 100000 men and approx
mately $4,000 officers. Chairman An.
thony of the subcommittee in charge
of the bill, announced that three new
estimates had been called for from
the War department to be computed
on the basis of an army Of $4,000, of
100000 and 125,0OO enlisted men.
The budget estimates call for total
appropriation Of $154,266,512 for pay
of all persons connected with the
army, including field clerks and Of.
ficers on the retired list. The total
requested in estimates for the War
department is approximately 1884,.

BONUS BILL TO Be
READY IN 10 DAYS
Representative Garner States
That Bill Is Being Framed
to Secretly.
BILL MUST GO THROUGH
Tax on Production Rather Than on
General Retail Sale ls Looked
Upon as Favorable by
President Harding.

WashingtOn.-Th outstanding de-
velopments in the bonus legislation
situation was the unexpected an
nouncement in the house by Chairman
Fordney Of the ways and means com
mittee that the bonus bill would be
ready for presentation to a caucus Of
the house Republicans within the next
ten days.
A moment after this statement was
made there was shout from the
Republican side of the chamber when
the chairman, lifting his voice to its
highest pitch, declared the soldier
measure would be passed by II Nepub-
lican house.
Breaking into the thick of row
over charges by Representative Garner
of Texas, ranking Democrat on the
committee, that the bill was being
framed secretly with the aid Of Rep
resentntivcs of the American Legion,
Mr.. Fordney shouted to the Demo-
cratic side that the Republicans did
not deem 1t proper to seek advice on
the bonus from those unalterably op-
posed to it,
Can't Be Headed off Now.
'"rhere is no power in the house to
head off the soldier bonus now," said
Republican leader, which seemed to
be the view Of most members insisting
upon it's early passage.
Democrats opposing the measure in
sisted, on the other hand, that the OBJ
lection to the sales tax was so strong
in some quarters that if that plan Of
meeting soldier payments was pre-
sented squnrely it might be defeated.
But il the sales tax method is re-
sorted to it was said President Hard
ing would view with favor tax on
production rather than on general re-
tail sales. The executive was SAID to
favor this form, it was said at the
White House, for 1t was, he believed,
the simplest form of this tax and
would avoid problems of exemptions
Which would probably arise in case a
geenral retail sales tax was decided
upon.
Opposition to the sales tax proposal,
however, was expressed in several
quarters. II. G. Atkeson, Washington
representative of the National Grange,
characterized it as designed to shift
the burden of taxation from those
most able to pay it. to those least able
to pay" and Samuel Gompers, presi-
dent of the American Federation of
Labor, declared it would work ian in
justice upon the whole people,"
