the Currency Crissinger, that if the
revised soldier bonus bill was passed
he would advise national banks not
to accept adjusted compensation
certificates as security for loans to
former service men created stir
among members OF congress. leaders
regarded it as unlikely that his stand
would swerve a majority Of the ways
and means committee members from
their determination TO report the
measure to the house.
With opponents OF the legislation
conceding that the bill would have
enough friends in the committee to
reach the house with recommenda-
ton that it be passed, speculation
centered on the attitude OF the cur
rency comptroller and its probable
effect.
Breaks Into Debate.
Republican leaders indicated there
would be no change in the plans for
consideration OF the bill by the ways
and means committee on Saturday
and for a vote under suspension OF
rules week from Monday.
Twice during the day the bonus
question broke into the debate on
the floor of the house--once when
Representative K II i 6 h t, republican,
Ohio. denounced the bill as "inde-
fensible from either the economic or
patriotic standpoint and again when
Representative Luce, republican.
Massachusetts,. protested against the
plan to take the measure up under
suspension of rules, which would
limit debate to 30 minutes under or
binary procedure and would shut OFT
amendments from the floor.
Another development in the sit
uation was the announcement by
Representative Mills, republican.

to the bonus bill. He indicated that
he would vote against favorable re-
port of the measure.

manitarian reasons and not as a
political measure, Joseph w. Ford
ney, chairman of the house ways and

speech before meeting Of the Amer
