Bill Is Returned To Congress 7oday---
Apparently To Die. House Expected To
Pass It, May Get Death Thrust In Senate
VITAL POINTS IN THE VETO MESSAGE

Mr.. Harding set forth a number of reasons
for returning the bill to the House without his APP
prevail. These included:
Failure of Congress to provide means of fl
nancng.
That inevitably the bonus would mean in
creased taxation.
That the legislation would wipe out every
thing thus far accomplished to reduce Government
expenditures wherever possible
That peace bestoWa on the ex-service men was
"a perversion of public funds" and suggested that
future defense is to be inspired by compensation
rather than consciousness of duty to flag and coun
try"
That to add one-sixth of the total sum of the
public debt for distribution among less than 500O-
600 of 100000 would undermine confidence on
which the nations credit was builded and "estab-
fish the precedent of distributing public funds
whenever the proposal and the numbers affected
make it seem politically appealing to do So"
That the 100000 100000 of maturing public
debts in the next six years would be difficult to meet
without adding the complication of added borrow
ings account of bonus.
That the adjusted service certificate plan of
payment, with it's bank and Government loan pro-
vision, was little less than certified inability of the
Government to pay and invited "a-practice of sac
rificial barter by the veterans
That the bonus would not diminish the latter
obligation in the way of pensions to World War
veterans. sq,asy zr.ssa
Asserting that this obligation would cost more
billions than | venture to suggest the President
declared that "a rational financial policy today is
necessary to make the nation ready for the expen-
diture which is certain to be required in the coming
years.
Mr.. Harding also called attention to the sums
now being expended for the care of disease, disabled
or dependent and asserted that the total of this cost
Of this work. with insurance liability added, prob
ably would exceed S25,0000 900, 100000

TODAY'S DEVELOPMENTS IN
THE NEAR EAST,

Now that a Balkan war seems
to have been averted, Allied
representatives are comforting in
Paris today upon plans for
Near East peace conference. II
may be held within fortnight.
Great Britain has formally re-
fused the request OF Turkish
nationalists to occupy Thrace,
or the eastern part, until the
peace conference establishes the
new frontiers of Turkey.
According to London press
advices Lord Curzon, British
Foreign Secretary, who s In
Paris has been instructed to ar
range for Allied occupation of
the Galipol Peninsula with Al
lied troops from the Aslatic
shores Of the Turkish Straits.
This would be concession to
the Turks.
There was an unconfirmed re-
wort from ConstantinopIe that
Turkish cavalry had approached
the outskirts OF Bigha In the
Allied neutral zone, but neither
the British nor French war Of
fees would verify IL.
Greece has undertaken reorgan-
ixation OF her army In Thrace
as the result OF widespread mu.
tiny. Additional reservists may
be called up.
Despite advlces from Paris
quoting Ahmer Ferid Bey, the
Turkish envoy as saying that
Turkey will never accept an Al
lied protectorate for CONSTANT
nopIe, British officials believe
that the situation is rapidly
clearing and that solution will
be reached without fighting.

Washington, Sept. 2o.--Unde.
tered by President Hardines
vigorous disapproval, expressed
in his veto message, the House
this afternoon passed the SOL
diers' bonus bill over his veto.
The action of the House,
however, was regarded as con-
shutting little more than empty
gesture, as the bill now goes to
the Senate where the enemies
of the bonus are stronger and
where the Presidents veto will
be sustained thus effectually
killing the bill so far as the
present session of Congress is
