PREACHERS ARE ASKED TO HELP
 IN GHOST HUNT
Canada Lays Claim to Still Another Husky Spook; Hurls
 Man Across Room

HALIFAX, N. &, Mar. 16.-Cana- da's two ghosts today apparently had been " laid"
 Not a peep was reported from Anti. gonish county after Dr. Waited Franlin Prince, New York stalker of the ephemeral, last night issued his 1000 word report, expressing be- lief that mysterious fires ill the house of Alex Macdonald could be attributed to Mary Ellen Macdonald, the farmers foster daughter, subject to altered states of consciousness
 His ghost hunt over, Dr. Princeswas preparing to return home tomorrow.
 Dispatches from Windsor, Ont, which yesterday reported the Spirit of Leo Leonard of Jackson, Mich, walking abroad, stated that no fur ther uncanny incidents had occurred overnight at the home of his son-in- law, Franklin Crandall, who charged the ghost with having hurled him across the rim.
 Indeed. a ghost would have had a hard time squeezing into the small house, which was thronged all day with the curious. Two clergymen were invited by the family to visit the house to lay the spirit by the DOW CT of prayer
 Rev. H. M. Paulin said after his visit that there was no doubt that the family was in a state bordering on panic.
 My opinion of the whole matter is that these visits of Spiritualist me diums have excited the minds of all of them that their imagination is running riot he added.

(Continued from Page One) whether a formal conference call would operate to delay consideration of the legislation. Chairman Fordney { declared it still was his determination to bring the bill up Monday under a suspension of the rules, if that could be done, and if not, to call it up Tues day under a special rule, if such a rule could be obtained.
 Speaker Gillett is due to arrive to- morrow from Florida, and at that time the question of whether the bill will be taken up Monday probably will be settled. Fordney said the con- ference with the speaker probably would be in perfect harmony" and that if Gillett held against a suspen- sion of the rules, he would proceed with plans to bring the measure up under a special rule. E.
 The chairman went on to say that it was not his desire to limit debate; that if the measure was taken up un- der a suspension of the rules, he would ask unanimous consent for two days of discussion, which would throw tite final vote oyer until late Tuesday. Should his request be denied, debate would be limited to 40 minutes under ithe house rules. The majority report on the bill was approved by all of the . Republicans of the ways and means committee except two - Representa- i 3tiHes Treadway, of Massachusetts, and {Tilson, of Connecticut, who voted , against the measure in committee and who were not present at the session of the majority today when the report was finally revised.
 The estimate in the report that the total cost of the bonus would be $4.- 09S.719.S50 was based on the assump- tiOn that 70 per cent of the 4,45S, ,I99 veterans who would be eligible for compensation would accept adjusted service certificates; 212 per cent vo- cational training aid 10 per cent farm and home aid; and 712 per cent land settlement aid. The remaiIing 10 per cenl would be paid in cash after pas sage of the bill under provision re- quiring veterans whose adjusted com pcnsation would not exceed $50 to ac- cept cash payment.
 Total costs under the various op- tions of the bill were estimated as follows: cash payments $16,000 ,O00; certificates, on account of deaths $577.571,00 and on account of ma turity 54.S23.S50; vocational train ing $52.325 .0O0; farm and home aid $1S6,0O0.000, and land settlement $112.000,000
