BONUS BILL OUT
McCumber Plan Reported Out
to Senate by Finance Men.
Little Change Made From Form
in Which It Passed House.
MEASURE MAY BE DELAYED
Tariff Bill Has Right of Way,
Some Senators Declare.
But McCumber Says He Will
Try to Expedite His Act.
MEASURE MAY Be DELAYED

Washington, May 31.-The COM
monty known McCumber soldier bo-
nus plan was ordered favorably re-
ported today by the senate finance
committee The vote was nine to
four.
The effective date of the biH was
changed, however, from next october
to January 1, 1929, after Senator
Walsh, Democrat, Massachusetts,, told
the majority that it would take six
months to get the bonus machinery IN
operation.
The Smoot plan providing for paid
up life insurance in lieu of all other
forms of compensation was defeated
by a vote of to 5, the three Demo-
Gratis preSent-Simmons, Walsh and
Gerry-voting against it,
Republicans supporting the Smoot
proposal were Senators Smoot, Nc
Lean, Frelinghuysen, Calder and Dill
lingham. Republicans voting against
it were McCumber, Curtis, Watson,
Sutherland and La Toilette.
Senator Mclean Breaks Tie.
Senator Mclean broke the tie which
has existed among the Republican
members on the vote to report the NC
Cumber plan which is the house bill
with some amendments including
elimination of the land settlement or
reclamation project. Senators said
reclamation was not discussed altho
house leaders and some senate sup
porters of reclamation legislation have
urged that the Smith-McNarry recla-
nation bill or some similar legislation
be attached to the bonus measure.
Several of the majority members
of the committe gave notice to Chair
man McCumber that they would op-
pose laying aside the tariff bill for
senate consideration of the bonus at
any time in the near future.
Bonus and Tariff Conflict.
McCumber replied that he intended
to get as prompt consideration of the
bonus bill as could be worked out.
but did not state whether the tariff
measure would be laid aside.
It was reported that the Republican
leaders hoped to work out some plan
by which the bonus measure could be
expedited without delaying seriously
the tariff bill.
Senator Simmons, ranking Demo-
cratic member announced on behalf
of the three Democrats present, that
they voted to report out the McCum-
Der bill only to get action promptly
and not because they favored the
measure.
The Democratic leader expressed
the belief that the McCumber bill
would be of little benefit to the serv-
ice men and said the minority reserved
the right to offer a substitute bill in
the senate or amendment to the Nc
Cumber plan.
The committee before approving
the McCumber plan eliminated the
forfeiture provisions as contained in
the house measure.
The house measure would have
limited the time to July 1, 1923. The
senate bill as reported would provide
for the payment of cash to veterans
whose adjusted service credited would
not exceed $50 as proposed in the
house measure, and would give to
other veterans one of these four op-
tions:
Adjusted service certificates, farm
or home aid, vocational training, and
land settlement.
