CONFEREES REACH
AGREEMENT ON
Soldier BONUS

Washington, Sept. 11.-Conferees
on the soldiers bonus bill reached an
agreement today and it was announc-
cd that the measure would be report
cd tomorrow to the House. 1t will
not be called up there, however, I'M
til after the conference report on the
tariff bill has been disposed of, which
may be on Wednesday Or Thursday.
After the House acts. the bonus bill
will go to the Senate, where also 1t
is to be put behind the tariff.
Four major changes We're made in
the bill in conference. They were:
Elimination of the Simmons amend
ment authorizing the financing of the
bonus ont of interest from the for
cign debt.
Elimination Of the land reclamation
feature, which. under the Senate plan
embodied in the Smith McNary re-
clamation bill, would have involved
an expenditure Of $3.50, 100000
The limiting of the time in which
veterans might file applications for
bonus to January l. 1928.
Acceptance of the House provision
fixing the amount to be advanced for
farm or home aid to the amount of
the adjusted service credit increased
by % per cent. in place of the senate
plan of amounts ranging from 100 per
cent. of the adjusted service credit If
the application were made in 1923 to
40 per cent. if application were
made in 1928 or thereafter.
No important change was made in
the adjusted service certificate OPP
ton. with its provisions Tor loans to
veterans by banks in the next three
years and for government loans
thereafter. The vocational training
aid option and the provision for cash
payments to veterans whose adjusted
service credit would not exceed $50,
also We're unchanged.
Much of the three hours session of
the confereees was understood to
have been devoted to a discussion of
whipping the bill into such a shape as
would meet the publicly expressed OBJ
