HARDING CERTAIN TO
VETO BONUS MEASURE

WASHINGTON, June Bonus
Legislation which has reposed with an
air of Observation-Disclosures conf
denee among republican members of
congress going before the polls this
fall, has received a severe setback.
A member of the senate, who re-
quested his name to be withheld, af-
ter a conference at the white house
stated that the president emphatical-
ly expressed his intentions of veto
ing the bill unless a revenue-rais-
ing clause was added.
President Harding, the senator de-
clared, was bitterly opposed to the
legislation as it now stands. He is
said to favor the sales tax feature as
the only means by which funds for
meeting the $4,O00,000,000 expendi-
ture can be raised.

CUTTING DOWN
PREPARATION

THERE was a time when both
L Lloyd-George and the French
government insisted that Germany
should pay every last cent of the
expenses of the war amounting to
more than a hundred billion dollars
in gold, several hundred billions if
they were literally estimated. Now
it is proposed to cut the total down
to about ten billion, or fifty billion
gold marks. 1t marks the distance
the allies have travelled in estinat-
ing the ability Of Germany to pay.
The old adage that you can't get
blood out of a turnip was just as
true after the armistice as it is to-
day, but when the allies began to
talk about indemnity payments
they seemed to grow crazy. They
demanded the impossible. The cost
Of collecting all they have been
able to collect up to date has just
about equalled the sur they have
collected. That is to say it paid
the cost of the army of occupation.
Now Germany can pay no more
and wants a two years rest before
being called on for any more in
stallments. If the allied troops
are kept in Germany during that
two years the German debt to
France will be increased by a sum
greater than the original figures.
Great Britain is certainly play
ing a generous part in these indem-
nifty negotiations. The cable dis
patches say that she is willing to
give up to Germany her share of
the indemnity. and thus increase the
ability of Germany to pay her debt
to France, and also to cancel five
billion dollars debt of France to
Great Britain as compensation to
France for agreeing to a two year

FIRST IN BRITAIN
New $1,00O,O 900 Edifice Being
Completed at

Special to the Tribune.

Lethbridge, July 1S.-One of the
many points of interest to tourists in
southern Alberta is the great white
temple erected by the Mormon church
at Cardston, and which will be dedi-
Gated next year and then closed to the
general public. This $1.O0o.00o edifice
is now open for the inspection of vi
%sitors. guides being provided by the
church to escort parties through the
building daily. explaining the signifi-
canoe of each room and the sacred
rites and ordinances performed there
in. Cardston is reached by good
motor highways lying directly on the
main trail between the Yellowstone
and Glacier National parks and Banff.
It is adjacent to the beautiful new
southeastern Alberta playground,
Waterton Lakes park.
This is the first Mormon temple to
be built on British soil, although it
is the eighth to be built by the church.
1t is built of granite, and is entirely
unique in construction. there beng no
building in Canada which approaches
it in architectural design and interior
furnishings and decoration. The first
sod in the construction of this temple
was turned by the late church head
Joseph F. Smith of Salt Lake City.
November 9. 1913.
Everything connected with the build
ing bears the imprint of solidarity and
artistic design. The foundations are

cessation Of German paymSts and

cessation of German paynNts and
a reduction Of the sum total de-
manded. Great Britain loaned
France five billions during the war
She also loaned other allies grea,
sums, so that the total of her war
loans is even greater than the ten
billions Uncle Sam loaned during
the war. None Of the debtors OF
Great Britain have paid her any
of the principal or interest due her
SO far. but in spite of that she is
prepared to pay US the five billion
we advanced to her or to others
on her Endorsement. When i,
comes to paying debts Great Bril-
tain is certainly there in good
shape, and she is taxing herself in
a heavy way to do it. The allies,
including France, owe her about
thirteen billion dollars, and it is
doubtful if she will finally collect
much of it. If Great Britain for
gives France her debt the other ma
tons that owe her will demand the
same treatment we expect. Surely
Great Britain did her share in the
war.
