COMPROMISE
BONUS PLAN
APPROVED BY
NIT TEE
Elimination OF Cash Bonus
Over $50 With Loan
Provisions For Full
Amount Given Approval
TRepublican A. P. Leased WlreI

WASHINGTON, March "A COM
promise soldiers bonus plan under
which the cash feature would be
eliminated where the former service
men would be entitled to more than
$50 adjusted service pay was agreed
upon today tents lively. but unan-
imously by a special subcommittee
of the Republican members of the
house ways and means committee
In the nature of a substitute for
the discarded cash feature there
would be added to the adjusted serv-
ice certificate title a provision which
would enable the men selecting the
certificate option to obtain imme IL
ately from banks loan equal TO one
half of the adjusted service pay 70
which thew would be entitled on the
basis of 81 a day for domestic serv-
ice and $1.25 a day for overseas
service.
In announcing the compromise
agreement, Chairman Fordney said
it probably would be week before
all details of the loan provision could
be woked out and the original bill
amended to conform 10 it. He ex-
pressed the opinion that the plan
would be so well received by house
members, generally that it would not
be necessary to submit the new bill
to party conference, thus speeding
UP the time Of its submission to the
house.
For the first time since the ways
and means committee majority began
consideration OF the bonus problem
an official statement Of what hap
pened behind the closed doors was
issued. 1t was prepared by Chair
De-. a
HawIey of New York and said:
Committee Statement
1.-THE subcommittee. consisting OF
Chairman Fordney and Messrs.
Green. Longworth, Hawley. Tread :
way and Copley, have tentatively
agreed upon and prepared a pro-
vision to be submitted which in sub
stance is as follows:
''The elimination of the cash fea-
ture of the bonus bill where the vet
erans are entitled TO more than $50
adjusted service pay, but adding a
new loan provision to the adjusted
service certificate title which will
enable holders OF such certificates
to borrow from any national bank
or bank or trust company incorporat-
ed under the laws of any state. SO
percent OF the sum of the adjusted
service pay prior 10 September 80,
1925. This date was fixed because
after that time the bill as originally
drafted by tie committee provides for
a larger percentage of loan by the
government and has not been changed
by the subcommittee.
Chairman Fordney and other COM
mitteemen said they believed the new
plan would meet with general favor
in and out of congress for three rea
sons, which were summarized as fol-
lows in formal statement issued by
Representative Green Of Iowa. rank

End FactionaI Fights
The first action OF the committee
was TO pass a resolution declaring at
an end the antagonism which they
declared had existed between the u.
;. Grain Growers, Inc, and the CO.

Numerous accusations and charg-
es as to the methods and purposes. of
each group have been made by rep

to the detriment of each. and to the
disadvantage OF all grain growers" !"
the resolution declares and contin-
ues, all OF the associations herein
represented must recognize the good
faith and high purpose of all the va

CHAIRMAN MADDEN
SAYS NAVY BUDGET
WILL FUEL SHIPS
TRepubIlcan A. ?. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, March 2--The dis
cussion of the amount Of fuel the
navy will need for the rest OF the
fiscal wear reached the floor of the
house today when Chairman Madden
OF the appropriations committee, in
opening debate on the governments
second deficiency bill for the year,
declared in reference to the dispute
over fuel oil that this was the first
time in framing the measure that
naval experts had failed TO raise the
specter of an impending war with
Japan.
Mr.. Madden added that in cutting
the figure for fuel oil from around
$12, ,OOO. 900 to $6,000,000, the commit
tee had reached it's conclusions on a
basis of a million and quarter dol
lars a month which, according to one
of the best men in the navy. whose
name / will not mention, will suf-
flee"
Officials at the navy department,
however. disagreed tonight with this
estimate asserting that even If every
shin in the navy at home or abroad
were brought to anchor Immediately
and kept idle until July / next, the
fuel bill at the end of the year would
exceed the limit the appropriations
committee have proposed by at least
a half million dollars.
It was made clear by department
officials that the general order di-
recting that ali naval vessels except
those in the Far East, the Near East
and in Mexican and South American
waters. stop steaming where they are,
and remain at anchor or at dock until
the end of the fiscal year, could not
be delayed many days without great
Iy increasing the probable fuel de-
ficiency beyond the limit proposed by
the house committee.
Ships that will be permitted to
operate under steam, II the order. is
issued, will be only those engaged on
missions abroad to which they were
sent at the request Of the state de-
| partment.
Mr.. Madden coupled with his state
ment a vigorous warning to def
| cheney fiendsp against exceeding ap-
preparations. In this connection of
ficers pointed out tonight that under
/ an act first passed in 1861 and re-
vived in 1906, the war and navy de-
partments were specifically author
1 lied to incur deficiencies for the sub
/ sistence, transportation and hospital
! care for soldiers and sailors and for
! fuel for the ships or TO heat quarters

German Brewers
Fear Prohibition
Drive In Europe

BERLIN, Mar. minutes which
have just been published here Of a
recent secret convention Of German
and Swiss brewers disclose that the
brewers admitted they feared prohi-
bition would sweep Europe.
1t was decided at the convention
to Immediately send a representative
Of the brewers, DR.. Neumann. to the
United States to study the effects of
prohibition there and to start cam
paign in the newspapers of Europe
against prohibition of the use of al
cohol. The campaign in the press
would attempt to prove the tonic ad-
vantages of alcohol. especially with
regard to beer.
DR.. Kuery. president of the Swiss
Anti prohibition association as
serted that it was necessary for the
brewery interests of the world TO
unite in o campaign against the anti
alcohol movement and particularly
TO fight together against the an
tagonists Of beer. The newspaper

resent the viewpoint of the users of
the beverages and not over estimate
the beneficial effects of alcohol. lest
there should be reaction against the

ASKS RECALL
Of GOVERNOR
E.MONT REILLY
Resident Commissioners Of
Porto Rico Carries Fight
Against Rely To Con-
gress For Investigation
TRepubIIean A. q. Leased WIG.

WASHINGTON, March a. Felix
Cordova Davila, resident commission
er of Porto Rico, declared in the
house today that Governor e. Mont
Reilly, "Iies. lies, and knows he lies.
IL he stated that his first official act
as governor of the island was the
vetoing of an illegal act of the legis-
lature by which the commissioner
was to have received $4,000 in added
salary during a four year term OF SER
vice.
The flare up over the row between
the governor and some of the resi-
dents came at the conclusion Of an
hours speech by Mr.. Davila, who sits
as a delegate in the house. In his
speech, the commissioner demanded a
congressional investigation of the
governors conduct, looking to his
removal from office. He presented
a series of charges and told how his
people had appealed to the Hardins
administration. "for relief from Rely
methods"
Taking the floor in Governor
Reily's behalf, Representative Tirch-
er, Republican Of Kansas threw the
house into turmoil by charging that
Mr.. Davila's .animosity was personal
in that the governor had stopped Da-
Villas hand before he could take the
$4,000 from the treasury. Indig-
nantly denying the charge, Mr.. Davila
vainly sought a chance to speak. He
was cut off by the expiration OF his
allotted time but later given time tc
answer the Tincher allegations and
shouted his denunciation Of the gov
ernor.
Says Harding Imposed Upon
Declaring the people he represented
asked that this step be taken "only
after the Harding administration was
given free opportunity TO act" Mr.
Davila, who is a member of the
Cnionist party of the island. ex-
pressed the BELIEF that il Governor
Reilly should be called as a witness
before an investigating committee
"he himself will be the best evi-
dence of the justice OF our demand for
his removal
Preceding a long series or charges
against the governor, Mr.. Davila told
the house that while he believed
President Harding made a mistake
in appointing him, he knew "the
President was imposed upon" there
fore the appointment was not made
knowingly or with the least malice
toward the people of Porto Rico"
Mr. Davila charged among other
things:
That Governor Reilly "announced
publicly that he intends to make
5000, 900 during the next four years in
office, whereas the salary as governor
Is $4,000 /"
That he has endeavored "to stir ur
strife and discord among the citi-
zens."
That he unlawfully 'interfered with
the courts of justice and attempted To
intimidate judges:
That in public speeches "ho uttered
disregard of the feelings and senti-

CONGRESS MAY GIVE
WEEKS FINAL WORD.
ON MUSCLE SHOALS

WASHINGTON, March 2.--Exam-
ination of two of three offers for pri-
vate lease, operation and completion
of the governments war projected
properties at Muscle Shoals, Ala, was
virtually concluded today by the
house military committee, it was an
nounced by Acting Chairman Nc
Kenzie of Illinois that the last offer
before the committee for considera-
ton would be taken up tomorrow and
that investigation of the proposals of
Henry Ford and the Alabama Power
company had been practically COM
pleted.
The announcement was made when
the committee adjourned that the
bid Of Frederick Z. Engstrum of Will
mington, y. c., would be the business
for tomorrow and Mr.. Engstrum and
his advisers had been requested to
appear. Representatives of Mr.. Ford
and. the power company were afford
ed the privilege of reappearing If they
desired to bring other evidence.
Earlier in the day members of the
committee decided in executive ses-
sion in favor of making a personal
inspection OF the Alabama projects
and authorized Chairman Kahn to
confer with house leaders on ques-
tions of paying expenses Of the mem
bers who might make the trip and
fixing the time for it.
Ending OF all hearings on the Mus
Gle Shoals question by the military
committee next week, was predicted
by committeeman tonight. They ex-
pect TO conclude with the Engstrum
offer within two or three days and
begin immediately preparing a re-
port for the house.
The impression prevailed among
committeeman that their report
would take the form OF resolution
authorizing the secretary OF war TO
enter into a contract with one OF the
bidders for the disposition Of the
Shoals projects under conditions 10
be set forth by congress.
