for all the men who died when the great army airship Roma was de- stroyed last Tuesday, but, because many of the bodies destined for homes in widely sepated parts of the coun- try, had been sent from the city ear Her, it was arranged for one body to represent all the services. So a lone soldier, without name, was chosen from among those remaining that all might be honored.
 Moving in funeral step to the strains of the dead march from Saul, played by a band from Langley Fiel the funeral procession entered the square which had been roped off on the Casino grounds overlooking the James river. Gathered about the square were thousands. As the body was laid in its natural catafalque, a squad of airplanes from army and navy flying stations nearby swept in great circles high over the flag can opied coffin, swinging nearer and nearer to earth in ever smaller turns. Finally. with mighty roar, they scooped one by one over the square scattering showers of lilies and crushed rose leaves.
 There was a short prayer by Chap lain Samuel J. Smith of Fortress Mon. roe, and another by Rev. J. E. Deg. afferelly of this city. Attorney Gen eral John R. Saunders of Virginia, de livered a eulogy
 Then a crisp order rang out anC the rifles of a Langley Field firing squad clicked their cartridges into place. Their sharp volleys crackei and as the echoes died, bugIer's notes mounted the breeze with the soldiers last farewell.

 Leaders of the house Republican opposing a sales tax, waged a Yigor ous campaign against this form O. levy before the committee met toda! to resume it's consideration of the fin ancing problem. They said the ranks of opponents had been swelled con siderably within the past two days and that whatever doubt there might have been about the result of the iF sue in the house had been removed.
 It becaem known today that Repre sentatives Frear and Dickinson, o1 Iowa, and Woodruff, of Michigan called on Chairman Fotdney late yes terday and frankly laid before hin the whole situation, placing emphasis on it's political aspects. They were understood to have contended that 2 sales tax would cause general dissat isfaction throughout the country. would make the soldiers bonus ex tremely unpopular with the people and might result in political upheay- als in many normally solid Republ, can districts.
 Those favoring the passage of { bonus bill without any provision foi raising the revenue said such legisla tion could be followed by another bill giving the secretary of the treasur! authority to use proceeds from the re funded bonds in paying the bonus The ysaid the expectation now was that some, at least. of the foreigr bonds would be in hand by June oI July, and that money could be realize on them before the cash payment tt the former service men would become due. Special machinery for paying the bonus will have to be set up 1T the war department, it was said, with a large staff of clerks necessary t examine the records of the men tt determine the exact amounts tha each is to receive.
