ERNST LINES UP
AGAINST BONUS
Senator Forsakes Adj
ministration Says
Any Action Now
Is Unwise

Washington, Feb. l7-Senator
Richard p. Earnst, Republican, Ken
lucky. lined up against the bonus
today: Representative Ralph Gilbert,
Democrat, Eighth District, reiterated
his opposition to any cash bonus, and
other members Of the Kentucky dele
cation who were here voiced their
opposition TO the proposed sales tax
and against the bonus.
Mr. Ernst, who had not discussed
his position in regard to the bonus
since the proposed legislation was re-
vived recently. said today that he
thinks il would be unwise to enact
bonus bill at the present time. He
pointed out that he might vote either
way at any other time, but that the
economic condition Of the country
would be taken into consideration
whe nhe voted. IL am an Admins
tration man." he said. "and | like to
be with the rest Of the crowd, but,
at the present time, ! think II is I'M
wise 70 enact bonus law. For that
reason | am not at all clear but that
il would do more harm than good
just now. No matter by what tax, in
any way devised, the bonus was paid,
an injury would be wrought to BUSH
ness at a time when we are trying
to restore general prosperity and to
make il possible for the former ser
vice man TO get employment-every
day in the year. That seems to be
our proper course now and IL seems
TO be the best thing for the former
service man"
Senator A. o. Stanley. Democrat.
who favors the bonus. said that the
proposed sales tax would not be fair;
that il would place all the burden on
the consumers.
II do not think the bonus will 20
through with the sales tax" he said.
I'VE have passed other bills carrying
large appropriations without specify
ing in the appropriation measures
how the revenue was 10 be raised" he
continued, why we specify in the
appropriation bill the means Of
raising revenue for the bonus?"
Mr.. Gilbert declared he still was
opposed TO the cash bonus-"by
whatever means they determine to
raise the revenue" He said that he
was not opposed to other features Of
the bonus proposition, such as grants
Of land. But a cash bonus, he said,
would retard economic readjustment.
Representative Alben W. Barley,
Democrat, First District, said he was
opposed to the sales tax and that
he would vote TO eliminate il, but he
would make no statement as how he
would vote IL the sales tax and the
bonus were linked together. Repre-
sentative W. J. Fields, Democrat,
Ninth District took the same posi-
ton.
Representative John W. Langley.
Republican, Ninth District. said that
he was for the soldier bonus "in
whatever way it is proposed to raise
the money TO pay it,"

Dog Owners Lax, Clerk saws.

The subject of dogs and tax collec-
tions on dogs. the four-legged can
ines, is proving source of lots of
grief these days. not only to the city,
but to the county as well. County
Clerk r. t. Brown is the latest Of
ficial to join the chorus of those who
are protesting against the non-pay-
ment of dog taxes, Two, years ago.
Mr.. Brown declares. residents of
Umatilla county paid taxes on 1900
dogs. So far during 1929, licenses on
only 1S0 have been paid for and is
sued from his office. He brought the
matter to the attention of the county
court Saturday and asked the coop

coming. season. Rather he declared,
he will concentrate his efforts to
strengthen the team in several de-
partments and build 1t into a. formid-
able machine.
Second base and shortstop are the
main difficulties Cobb says he il fac
ing. Last year. he said, opposition
clubs punched >holes through the key
stone position Of the infield that lost
many a ball game. But he has strong
hopes of plugging up these infield de-
fects before the season opens.
"The Tigers should finish, fifth OF
better the Georgia Peach declared
I'VE have a very good chance Of fin
ishing fourth or possibly third, We
are still unsettled at second base and
at short. Last year III errors were
made at these positions but If can

The boys are all imbued with the
spirit to win, and any club that ex-
poets to find the Tigers easy picking
Is going to be handed, rather un-
pleasant surprise, according to Cobb.
Last year ePep'' Young and q
youngster by the name Of Sargent held
down the positions Of second and
short.
Cobb did not state whether he con-
templated any trades to strengthen
his team, but appeared satisfied with
the prospects OF the club fore the
