MELLON ASSAILS
The BONUS BILL
Is "FOreed Borrowing by the
Government, He Writes.
NO "OUT" FOR TAXPAYER
If Compensation Must Be Paid, Let
it Be Direct From Revenue, He
Says.

Says.
Washington. The new soldier
bonus bill, as drawn by house
Republicans, was attacked by Secre
fary Mellon as involving "a dangerous
abuse of government credit"
Replying to request for the treas
ury's comment on the new bonus bill,
Mellon, in a letter to Chairman Ford
ney, of the house ways and means COM
mittee, sharply criticized the features
Of the proposed measure providing for
loans by banks and adjusted service
certificates as indirect and forced"
borrowing by the government.
He suggested that the direct and
regular way" to provide for paid up
endowment insurance feature would be
to authorize insurance certificates with
provision for direct policy loans to be
financed by the government.
Mellon commended that "it is both
dangerous and unwise" to attempt to
avoid the cost of the bonus for the
time being
"There is no way" he said, "by
which the American taxpayer can
avoid the burden, and if a bonus is
to be imposed it is far better for all
concerned that it be Placed on direct
and definite base and paid for each
year out of current revenues. To do
this at this time will necessarily mean
the imposition of additional taxes for
the purpose"
The secretary estimated the cost Of
the bonus under the bill, considering
each of the possible choices offered to
veterans, at more than $f,200,O00,000
by January /, 1925.
Whatever form the bonus measure
might take, he asserted. would mean a
cost to the government of from $780,
100000 to S400,O00,000 for the next
three or four years, and possible con-
tinuing liabilities thereafter of more
than $20o,000,000 a year until 1913.
Accompanying his letter. Mellon
transmitted statistical tables prepared
by treasury experts showing the vary
ing cost of bonus according to what
percentage of veterans might choose
the different pl rs of payment offered.
Mellon called attention to the fact
that the bill makes no provision for
raising additional revenue to meet the
cost of the bonus, and recalled to
Fordney President Harding's letter of
February 16, in which it was suggested
that general sales tax be enacted to
provide the necessary funds or the
bonus legislation be postponed.
