Slashes in proposed ex- penses for the year commencing next July 1 total sS31. 900, and saving of an additional half million is contem plated in the financial code.

Philadelphia, Feb. 15.--Whether a
telephone operator overseas during the
world war was member of the mill

orator with base hospital 3S.
She died January 10. 1919, leaving
an estate valued at $7sO,0OO. Heirs

BONUS Up IN AIR Governor SETS
WITH SALES TAX PACE BY ATTACK
FORCES HOPING ON LEGISLATURE
Harding Objections to
E;ght-Point Program
Has Proposal Adrift.

Washington, Feb. 15.-The soldiers
bonus question is still very much in
the air.
Congress was without any official
word from President Harding as to
his views on the subject and, mean
time. the committees which have been
handling the problem continue to mark
time.
Among senators and representatives
generally. there was considerable pri-
yate discussion and conjecture. with
the revival on the house side of talk
about slashing of annual appropria-
ton bills as means Of providing the
necessary finances for the bonus.
MondeII Couldn't See Harding
Representative Mondell, Wyoming,
and some other leaders in the house
were understood to be giving this pro-
posal close study. Mr. Mondell called
at the White House early in the day.
but did not see the president He
said afterward that the supply meas
ures would be examined carefully to
determine whether much of the sum
needed for the bonus could not be OBJ
tanned from that direction.
This proposition met with consid-
cradle response from members OF the
house. where, apparently. there is a
growing desire to put the bonus
through.
Might Cut Navy S2o0, 100000
There were suggestions that, as a
result of the agreement for naval
holiday. as much as S200.0OO,O0O could
be cut from the naval bill and that
another large sum could be saved by
cutting down the size of the army. Mr..
Mondell and other leaders were not
prepared, however. to make estimates
until more careful study of the sub
ject had been made.
With the executive known to look
with disfavor upon either the suggested
eight-point tax program, or a bond
issue. sales tax proponents pushed
their campaign with renewed vigor
and were understood to have been well
satisfied with the progress made.
Congressional leaders we're under
stood to be without information as to
when the president could communicate
with Senator McCumber Or whether
his letter would contain suggestions
that might assist congress in shaping
it's program.

Peer at Least Of Movie Talent
The record of Weinberg's escapades

he gave a sumptuous banquet to the

Shortly after, as Lieutenant Com

general for Roumania," he paid an Off
cial visit to the battleship Wyoming at
anchor in the Hudson river, and repaid
the courtesies he received on board by
dining the ships officers at the Astor
hotel The guests reported the affair
a huge success, but the hotel man
agement was less enthusiastic, because
the host of the occasion skipped out
without the formality of settling the
bill.
Next, in 1918, as Lieutenant Roy

New York. Feb. 15.--The appellate
division of the supreme court Wednes-
day reserved decision on a motion by
Marvin Taylor Of New York and Lean
der III. Lachance of Chicago to reverse
the decision of Surrogate Pelletreau of
Suffolk county, which ousted them as
guardians of Mrs. Marian Stewart
Honeyman of Chicago. 20-year-o old
daughter of the late J. X. Stewart.
George w. Field. law partner of Mr..
Taylor, and John d. Black of Chicago
in removing the guardians on the
ground that in Illinois, where the legal
age of women was Is. Mrs. Honeyman
was no longer minor. because she
was an infant under the law of this
shte, and the guardians could not get
a legal receipt from her in the event
they turned over her property In this
state.
Robert B. Honeyman. whose son
married the heiress some months ago.
charged that, although there were but
four comparatively insignificant items
of property belonging to Stewart in
this state. and the bulk of the millions
was in Chicago, the guardians trans
ferred a vast fund to New York with
the idea that they would hold on TO it
as guardians.
He asked the court to take cogni
zancc of charges of mismanagemcnt
and misconduct he had laid before Sur
rogate Pelletreau.
Mr.. Black contended that Stewards

was referred to committee for the
purpose of making some changes.
William Brandt, Newark, intro
ducer of the resolution, said he be-
lieved it's adoption would go far in
alleyiating what he termed was a
growing impression that every one
connected with the motion picture in
dustry was immoral, and would be q
means of offsetting the notoriety to
the industry caused by the recent
staying of William Desmond Taylor
at Los Angeles The resolution
called attention to the fact that the
theater owners themselves had ruled
from the screen Arbuckle pictures as
well as those featuring Clara Hamon
and Fred Beauvais.
The convention went on record as
opposed to drives, campaigns or
special weeks which they claimed
were getting to be 80 common as to

A resolution that the association
should extend the hand of co-opera
