Choice of Bonus Plans for Veterans

of congress drew up the tentative bill
which was introduced as expressing
the composite views of the service
men.
AT the outset emphasis is laid on the
fact that the purpose of the bill is not
TO hand ''gratuity" or a money
gift" TO the fighting forces. Its intent
is to adjust to some extent the eco
nomic disadvantage which fell upon
the soldiers and sailors All the stress
is laid on the discharging of an "eco-
homie debt" not sentimental debt"
The soldier or sailor was out of the
velvet" when wages were running
high; he got back to find himself out
of touch with the economic fabric !;
often his job gone or conditions
changed at the Office or in the shop or
his business or practice shot to pieces.
Estimates are that the bill would
apply to some 4,565, 700 men who served
in the army and navy. Its benefits are
limited to those below the rank of cap
tain in the army or marine corps and
lieutenant in the navy. Men who were
given commissions while doing clerical
work in the departments also are ex-
Guided.

man left in the senate who holds his
state politically in the hollow Of his
hand. The only one of the eastern
leaders left is Senator Lodge of Massa-
chusetts and he is not boss of his state
and never has been. He is the Re-
publican leader of the senate.
The outstanding leaders of the SEN
ate today are such men of the West-as
Cummins and Kenyon of Iowa, Nc
Cumber of North Dakota, who succeeds
Penrose as chairman of the finance
committee; Lenroot of Wisconsin,
Smoot of Utah, Watson of Indiana,
Borah of Idaho, Johnson of California,
and Warren of Wyoming.
The seniority rule still holds in con-
gress and the West has risen to power
because it has been re-electing Its
senator's and representatives more
generally than has the East in recent
years. Rising to the top of the list
through the operation of this rule,
western senators now dominate such
major committees of the senate as
agriculture, appropriations. commerce,
education and labor, finance, inter-
state commerce, judiciary and post
offices.

Federal Personnel Board Is Planned

planned as follows:
The board shall be composed of
one representative from each depart
ment and independent establishment.
The president of the civil service COM
mission of the United States shall be
ex-officio chairman Of the board. or
said commission may designate a chair
man to act.
"The duties of tie board shall be
to formulate policies and plans de-
signed TO place the personnel admins
tration OF the federal government
abreast of the best practices In private
enterprise with due regard to the pecu-
liarities of the public service"
In the prosecution of its activities Il
shall consider, among other things, the
following:
THE perfection of methods whereby
the civil service commission viii be
advised regarding the success or fall
ure of persons selected through its
examinations. and whereby provision
will be made for the reessignment or
the separation from the service of per-
sons who are unsatisfactory"

ing. There has been no charge OF
crooked work" The boxers complain
merely that the judges are doing bad
work because they don't know better.
Jack Dempsey is willing to put his
title at stake, but there is no one In
the field to give the heavyweight
champion a battle. Jack Britton is
willing to fight in New York. but there
are no welterweights threatening him
unless it might be Benny Leonard, who
is rapidly reaching his poundage. In
cidentally, the Britton-Leonard bout
seems sure thing before the winter
is over.
KiIbane Wants Big Money.
Johnny Kilbane is willing TO risk his
title in the Garden, but he wants so
much money for the risk that even
Richard can't meet his terms.
The bantamweights are about the
only ones willing to get In and listen
TO the decisions but they are having
a lot of fun passing the title around
among each other. They figure, per-
haps, that if they go in the ring often
enough their opponent will get bad
decision and they will get a good one.

Marines Are Still Needed In Haiti

C0NTINUED maintenance of Ameri-
can armed forces in Haiti, APP
pointment of an American high
commissioner and approval of sug-
gested new loan are among important
recommendations of the special senate
committee investigating conditions in
Haiti. The formal report will not be
made at once, but summary was
given out by Senator Mccormick after
conferences with Secretaries DENLY
and Hughes. The report says, In
part:
1.-THE members of the committee are
unanimous in the belief that the con-
tinued presence of the small American
force in Haiti is as necessary TO the
peace and development of the country
as are the services to the Haitian gov
eminent of the American officials ap-
pointed under the treaty of 1915. There
can be no abrogation of the treaty,
and, at this time, no diminution of the
total force of marines.
at is important that steps should
be taken forthwith TO coordinate the
labors of the representatives of the
United States in the government of
Haiti and of the so-called American
treaty officials.

CHARLES w. PADDOCK
SAYS FORM Is BUNK
Great Splinter Runs Because OF
Love of Sport.
Advises Athletes to Pick the Fellow in
Race Most Feared and Then De-
feat Him-concentratio Is
Big Keynote.

"Pick the fellow in the race you
fear the most and then do your best
to beat him TO the old finish line"
That's the advice of Charles w.
Paddock, one of the greatest sprinters
in the world, who recently established
a new record for the 220-yard dash by
stepping the distance in 20 As seconds.
when a man is running short
dash, his mind is so concentrated that
everything in his past, present or fu-
ture comes TO his mind" declared Pad
dock today. 1T is the same as with
man who is drowning they both
think of everything. The more con-
centrated a mans mind is. the better
race he will run.
1T is a peculiar matter that the
physical things are not felt in hard
race. A runner may be spiked or he
might strain a tendon and he'd never
know it until after the race. scarcely
feel the ground the last 20 yards, in
fact do not touch it the last is feet,

In high school and one fellow who was
running fourth place came in second

There should be appointed spe-
cial representative of the President, a
high commissioner in whom should be
vested the usual diplomatic powers of
an envoy extraordinary, and to whom,
furthermore, all the American Off
Gals appointed under the treaty, as
well as the commandant of the ma
rine brigade, should look for direction
and guidance.
"They believe there ought to be no
further delay in the matter of the
new loan, in order that the debt held
in Europe may be discharged on adj
vantageous terms, and the just claims
of Haitian citizens against their own
government may be promptly paid.

running, just as an animal does
Athletes learn to concentrate better
than any other individual, in fact it is
exceedingly true with athletes that
concentration is the keynote TO sue
cess People claim the better the
athlete the poorer student, but 1 don't
agree with them If any athlete was as
interested in his studies as he was in
his particular event, he would be a
better student than the average, be-
cause he has learned to concentrate
better than the ordinary person"
Paddock attributes his great speed
to his ability to get in and dig" from
the start to the finish
Charles w. Murchison, of the New
York Athletic club. one of Paddock's
rivals, recently declared that if the
Californian would leave his marks
quicker he would run the century in
9 Is seconds.

Big Fund to Aid Uncle Sans Shipping

~ IRECT remuneration of Amer
lean ship operators out of a fund
amounting to probably $4,000
600 for the fiscal year 1929, and
establishment of a $100,O0OO00 mer-
chant marine loan fund, are among the
features of the comprehensive plan for
the aid of the American merchant
marine submitted TO the shipping board
by the committees of experts recently
appointed to work out program for
presentation to congress by President
Harding.
The program, as submitted by the
experts, embodies both direct aid and
indirect aid for the American mer-
chant marine. The aim, as stated in
the recommendations of the experts. is
to put American shipping on an even
competitive basis with British ship
ping.
The remuneration would apply to all
American steamships plying in and
out Of United States ports regardless
of their service
Indirect aid for the American mer-
chant marine as proposed, includes
the following:
