this afternoon with loss OF life.
which first reports stated was four
with II more missing and the com.
plete count not made
According to the first reports. the
rudder broke as the ship circled'
over the army base and the bag
slowly descended TO The earth.
As its nose plowed into the ground
tremendous explosion shook the
frame and the bag was Immediately
enveloped in flames.
-Four bodies we're picked up by
the first squad OF relief workers to
reach the scene and every efwrt
was being made to ascertain wheth-
er or not there were others caught
in the wreckage and burned.
The intense heat of the wreckage
rendered the rescue work impossi-
BILE insofar as the twisted parts OF
the frame was concerned.
Witnesses declared that as the Dag
neared the earth, some Of the men
we're seen to leap from the carriage,
but the majority remained at their
posts. The explosion is believed to
have caused the death of several
and officials fear that SOME were
entangled in the wreckage and
fdrned to death. e
The Roma was one of the largest
craft of its kind in the world and
was the greatest in this country.
It was recently chrlstened at Wash
ington.
The Roma was scheduled to start
soon on tour of the large cities
Of the United States. The purpose
Of the flight was to be to prove the
contention of the army air service
that the semi-rigid airship is highly
efficient. The ship recently per.
formed to perfection and created
great deal of favorable comment by
making a record flight from Langley
Field, Va. to Boiling Field at Wash
ington, through fierce gale.

HARDING FAv0RS
DELAY SOLDIERS
BONUS MEASURE
President Strongly In Favor Of Post
ponement, He Tells Republican
Senator Who Called Upon
Him at White House.

Washington, Feb. 21.-President
Harding is strongly in favor OF post
poning the soldier bonus legislation
until next year, 1t was learned on
reliable authority today.
The president communicated his
view to this effect to republican
senator who called at the white
house. lie did not say that he would
veto the bonus bill If it was sent to
him, but indicated that he might do
so If protests continue to reach him.
In an effort to block the sales tax
within Vac committee, twenty-five re-
publicans, opponents of this kind of
q levy met and framed petitions
which were freely circulated and
signed before the house adjourned.
Representative Dickinson of Iowa
who called them together said II was
the hope to obtain sufficient sigma
lures to convince the majority com
mittee members that ii would be i'm
possible to put a sales tax provision
through the house.
The petition declared in favor of
adjusted compensation, but in opposi-
ton to the financing of 1t by sales
or manufacturers tax and sets forth
that signers "will oppose any rule
for the adjusted compensation that
does not permit separate vote on
any sales or manufacturers tax pro-
vision therein"
While the ways and means com
mittee was discussing the bonus
question it was made known at the
White House that President Harding
had received many communications
opposing enactment of the bonus
legislation for the present.
Besides referring the question Of
finances to the subcommittee, the
ways and means majority discussed
the bill itself as finally approved by
special subcommittee.
One administrative change agreed
upon Monday is designed to protect
/ former service men borrowing money
on the proposed insurance certif-
Gates.
| Under the amendment those adj
vancing money to the men and ac-
cepting the certificates as collateral
would b erequired to surrender the
certificates when the principal and
interest of the loans had been paid.
