Labor Delegates
Condemn the Ship
Subsidy Measure

CINCINNATI. June 13-Unquali-
fled condemnation of the ship subsidy
bill was voted unanimously today by
the delegates at the American Fedora
ton of Labor convention almost sim
ultaneously with President Harding's S
dispatch of a letter asking congress
to pass the measure under threat of
an extra session
The cony&tion also voted to send
q protest against passage of the bill
to the senate and house leaders.
The bill was termed by the reso-
luton adopted by the convention as
a "cunningly devised scheme to en-
rich certain classes of so-called
American ship owners at the expense
of the truly American taxpayer and
also to provide patronage which is
certain to be used for purely polit-
ical purposes"
The resolution concluded with the
statement that the bill was con
demned as in mical to the public in-
terest and particularly destructive to
the nations hopes for sea power
The action by the delegates was
their first attack on the Harding ad-
ministration, which it was indicated
by the federation's executive council
report would be the brunt of other at
tacks during the two weeks conven-
tion. All other matters We're laid aside
for considering the shipping bill, but
the only floor discussion that came
while the measure had the right of
way was from Andrew F'uruseth. the
D resident of the SeamenS union.

BONUS, AVER
REPUBLICANS
Administration 1Leaders
Say Harding Backing
Fight Against Sidetrack-
ing Tariff

WASHINGTON. June Senate
Republican leaders who are opposed
to the plan of Chairman McCumber
of the finance committee to side
track the tariff bill for the soldiers
bonus have the support of President
Harding. The executive, it was
stated officially today at the White
House, regards tariff legislation as
most important and worthy of the
undivided attention of the senate.
Plans for consideration of the
bonus still are very indefinite, but
they may take shape after the return
here tomorrow of Senator Lodge of
Massachusetts, the Republican leader
-who has been campaigning in his
home state.
Some leaders desire that a party
conference pass upon the question of
the right of way as between the two
bills, but should such a conference
be called Senator McCumber and
other proponents of the bonus are
expected to make a fight against de-
laying senate action on that measure
until the tariff bill has been disposed
of.
Senator McCunlber has given no.
tice that he will call up the bill in
the near future. He has not vet
fixed upon a definite date.
Some leaders said today there was
a probability that the bill would be
called the latter part of next week
or early in the week following unless
an agreement was reached in party
conference 10 defer action.
Ladd Has Amendment
ATcaf h L.
for the amended house bonus bill are
being put forward. The latest was
offered today by Senator AcCumber's
colleague, Senator Ladd, Republican,
North Dakota.
It would provide for cash bonus
to the soldiers TO be paid by the
issue of $25a0,000 or less of legal
tender treasury notes to be retired
over period OF % years out of pro-
ceeds from special taxes on banks
anG interest received from foreign
indebtedness.
Senator Ladd's plan contenplafes
a tax on all banking institutions hay-
ing a capital stock Of 500 600 or more
equal to so per cent OF the profits in
excess of L per cent and all other
taxes. Should these taxes and the
interest on the foreign debt be In
sufficient 10 pay the annual refund
ing installments OH the legal tender
issued to the veterans, the deficiency
would be made up out of the federal
treasury.
Explaining his amendment. Sena-
tor Ladd said in formal statement
that few would contend that in the
light Of present economic conditions
banks should make profit greater
than IL per cent. He argued that
this plan would cause no initiation OF
credits and contended that in this
manner the soldiers could be paid at
little expense TO the government.
Charaeterizing the certificate plan OF
the McCumber bill as little more
than bread bill' for the veterans
Senator nadd said they had asked
for meat and have been given q
stone" Senator Kendrick, Democrat,
Wyoming. delivered a prepared ad-
dress in favor of compensation and
urging that the Smith McNary recia-
nation bill be attached to the bonus
measure as n land settlement option.

this time.
Declaring that the toiling millions

wealthy still laughed at the Volstead

finds it negation and a farce on
the ships that sail the sea under the

that the President could suffer no
greater disappointment than that
which would come through unfavor-
able action on the shipping bill. The
house leaders who have talked with
him on the subject have stated that
he has been most insistent that the
measure be taken up, if necessary as
a straight party issue, believing its
enactment of the greatest value to
the business welfare of the country.
