PROF|TEERS owe
BONUS TO SOLDIERS
SAYS SEN, CAPPER

Washington, Aug. 29.-AnnOuncIng
his support OF the soldiers bonus as
nothing more than a square deal
for the boys who did the fighting"
Senator Capper, Republican, Kansas,
told the Senate today that 1.-THE war
profteers and the peace profiteers
owe a bonus to the soldiers Of the
World War"
There is no better guarantee
against militarism than to require
the men who profit out of war to
pay for t." he said Those who
remained at home made enough here
in the United States to enable us
to pay many timesover the debt we
owe to the men who fought our hat
ties. Wall street wants to pay it
with sales tax which would be paid
largely by the farmers, the laborng
people and others in the form OF q
tax on food and clothing and other
necessities.
"Profiteering during the war pro-
duced one American millionaire for
every three American soldiers killed
in France. | would like to see the
government recover the hundreds of
millions Of dollars stolen from the
treasury by the crooks and graflers
who profiteered off the government
in war contracts and then use that
money to pay the soldiers bonus.
Then there is another way we can
raise the money. Let's go after the
billions that the foreign governments
owe US. collect the interest promptly
and pay it to our soldiers"
Senator Capper said the most pow
erful influence against the bonus was
the United States Chamt er of Com
merce, which he charged, had taken
a referendum of its membership not
upon the measure before Congress,
but upon a measure Of its own Con
cocting."

was desirable although without any

One immediate result of the ne

II the anthracite coal strike should
be settled this week, the people Of
Maine would probably not get any
of this coal before January, State
Fuel Director Andrew P. Lane an
nounced Tuesday. This is on account
of the Northwest priorities and the
priorities to New York State.
Director Lane emphasized the
statement that it is up to the peo-
pie of the Maine industries to get in
their soft coal supply now. The
lowest price offered for coal since
the great strike, was received Tues
day by Director Lane.
The news came in the form Of a
cablegram from the Vivian Coal
Company of Cardiff, Wales, offering
a cargo of between 1000 and 5000
tons Of Welsh Admiralty coal two
thirds large and one third small,
delivered at Portland at $3.50 per
ton.
On receipt of the communication,
Director Lane notified the coal deal
ers and industries of the State of the
offer.

Ford Will Carry Out
Intention Close Plant
Sept. Is Is Report

Detroit Aug. 29.-(By A. P)-Cn-
less the Ford Motor Co. receives coal
from an unexpected source. it Will
close all its manufacturing depart
ments in the Detroit district Sept. 16.
This statement was made at Mr.
Ford's office today in answer to a ru-
NOR in circulation in Detroit and else
where to the effect that a way had
been found out Of the company's fuel
problems.
When they heard a report to the
effect that the federal fuel committee
was considering steps to provide coal
for the Ford company at the normal
price, sources close to Mr. Ford assert
ed they had not been officially advised
with regard to the matter and added
Nothing has been done yet to sell us
enough coal to operate at anything like
profiteering prices" Mr. Ford, it was
reiterated, is firm in his conviction
that for him to pay incrca scd prices
for coal at this time would have the
effect Of keeping coal costs up at the
expense of other manufacturers and
the houscholders of the country.

PEPPERS PLAN

Washington. Aug. pa proposal
that the strike in the anthracite coal.
fields be settled Immediately on the
basis of the wage scale in effect last
April was advanced through Senator
Pepper of Pennsylvania tonight at
conference of representatives of OPP
orators ana mine union officials.
Some of those participating in the
conference expressed belief that the
proposal offered hope of ending the
long continucd suspension in the
hard coal fields j.
Under the proposal. THO contro-
versial issue of arbitration as
means of reaching agreement on
wages would be set entirely aside.
and the only important question to
be decided would be that of how long
the compromise would be effective.
Senator Pepper and his associate
from Pennsylvania, Reed. who also
participated in the preliminary con-
ference, left the meeting after the
proposal had been laid before tine
opposing delegations. Mr.. Pepper oX-
pressed the opinion that the opera
tors who have insisted on arbitra-
ton. might easily retire on this issue.
since there was every prospect that
a federal commission soon would be
set up to investigate the entire nm
ct,.,, hn
same purpose as the proposed arbi-
trail tribunal.
