BONUS COMMITTEE
 WAITING MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT
Much Private Discussion Fol- lows Revival of House Talk About SIaShing of
 Appropriations
By Associated Press

Washington, February 15.-The soldiers bonus question was tonight 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 continued to mark time.
 Among senators and represents lives generally there was consider able private discussion and conjec- ture with the revival on the House side of talk about a slashing of an- nual appropriation bills. as means of providing the necessary finances for the bonus.
 Representative Mondel1 of Wyom ing, and some other leaders in the House were understood to be giving Nis proposal close study. Mir. Mon dell called at the White House early in the day, but did not see the Presi- dent. He said afterwards that the supply measures would be examined carefully to determine whether much of the sum needed for the bonus could not be obtained from that di- rection.
 This proposition met with consid- erable response from members of the House, where apparently there is a growing desire to put the bonus bill thRough. There were suggestions tha4 as a result of the agreement for naval holiday as much as $200. 000,- GOO could be cut from the naval bill and that another large sum could be saved by cutting down the size of the army. MT. MonGeu and other leaders were not prepared, however, 10 make estimates until a more care full study of the subject had been made.
 With the executive known to look with disfavor upon either the sug- gested 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. They were said to be hopeful that the President would suggest this mica ton to Chairman McCumbe of the Senate finance committee.
 Some senators also thought that Mir. Harding might make such a sug- aSestion but this belief did not appear 10 be general. Sentiment in both House and Senate against a sales tax was said 10 be so strong that there was little probability that the bonus bill with a provision for this tax could be passed.
 Congressional leaders wsre -un Aer- stood to be without information to- night as to when the President would communicate with Senator McCum- Der or whether his letter would con tain suggestions that might assist Congress in shaping its program.
