CERTALNTYOF VETOHURRIES
SENATE VOTE ON THE BONUS

ognizing the principle OF the bonus, "
should be put through now and
precedent established. Mr.. McCumber
and his associates who want to liqui-
date their pledges to the bonus claim
ants as soon as possible deny they
have any intention of abandoning the
measure which bears the name OF the
North Dakota Senator. Their attitude
during the debate clearly reflected the
determination to put through the
scheme as reported by the Finance
Committee.
Most of the day was taken up by
a discussion OF the McNary amend
ment. which will probably be adopted
on the theory that actuates a small
boy to tie tin can to dogs tail.
The McNary project Is In the nature
ofa substitute for the land option
feature of the bonus bill passed by
the House but eliminated by the
Senate. Secretary Mellon estimated
that if all the veterans availed them
selves of the discarded House scheme
it would cost the people of the country
around $4,000, 100000.
The McNary scheme comes cheaper.
But the late Col Mulberry Sellers, of
theatrical renown, would have re-
garded his own visionary projects as
''piker" proposals as compared to the
McNary plan. The scheme advocated
by the Oregon Senator would cost the
people of the wholS country about
$3.50 900, 900 at the start. How much
more 1t would cost is matter of
guessing The money would be used
to reclaim" swamp, arid and other
worthless lands In ten or eleven
Western States. and the whole coun-
try is to pay the bill.
Glowing Picture Painted.
Mr.. McNary painted glowing pic
ture of the great advantages of his
scheme to humanity when the bonus
was called up this morning. He de-
clared a i6rge number of ex-service
men had expressed themselves IN favor
of the plan to give them preference in
settling on the land after its improve
ment. He pointed out that the pro-
visions of his bill would apply to 20,-
100000 acres OF arid land in the West
and 96,000,o00 acres of swamp land iD
the South and Southwest. All of the
Senators from the far Western and
Southwestern States which would
profit at the expense OF the other
States naturally rallied to support of
the McNary scheme.
They privately admitted 1t would be
a good thing" for their respective
States. although Senator Dial Is. CO.
dryly observed that the cutover lands
of the South will be more suitable for
homes for soldiers than swamp lands
filled with tadpoles, insects and croco-
diles. I
Senator Pittman (Nev) in urging
the acceptance of the McNary plan
paid high tribute to "the munificent
support OF reclamation projects rem
dered by Theodore Roosevelt" Sena-
tors Nicholson (Col), Walsh (Mont.)
and Hef1in (Ala.) indorsed both the
McNary plan and the bonus BILL
Senator Sterling (S. d., while ap-
proving of the McNary scheme, said
he would vote against the bonus bill
as a whole.

Colorado Has More Coal
Than It's Industries Need

Special Dispatch TO THE NEW YORK HERALD
DENVER, Aug. 2s.-Officials of the
State Coal Mine Inspectors office de-
clared tonight that there was no possi-
bility OF industrial or public utility
plaEts having to shut down or curtail
operations because of a coal shortage.
Much OF tho power used in Colorado is
supplied by hydroelectric plants, and
Colorado's coal production this season
Is more than 100000 tons in excess
of the corresponding period a year ago.
While the rest of the nations coal
fields were tied up by the strike OF the
United Mine Workers 80 per cent, of
Colorado's $4,000 miners were at work
In non-union mines and an ample supply
Of coal has been maintained throughout
the summer. Not only has Colorado
been able to produce enough coal to
supply local requirements but much has
been exported to other States.

vote for the McCumber bill despite
the condemnation OF it by the Presi-
dent. Secretary Mellon and the tax
payers of the country, is, Of course
10 record themselves worthy OF the
political support of the prospective
soldier beneficlaries.
Buck Passing Is the Aim.
Mr.. McCumber and his bonus asso-
clates, therefore, plan to put through
the bill bearing his name as per
schedule. What happens to II after
that is something else again. The
deal with the political leaders of the
American Legion will have been con-
summated The buck will have been
passed TO the President.
How much effect the debate in the
Senate will exercise on the final vote
is a matter of conjecture. Probably
not much. bonus Senators predict
that there will be more than sixty
votes for 1t and not more than twenty
against 1t. A canvass of the Senate
indicates that In excess of thirty votes
will be cast against 1t in the first in
stance and more than forty to sustain
the Presidential veto.
If President Harding has any inten-
ton OF intervening in the bonus con-
troversy as he did last year he has
not taken any Of his Senatorial friends
into his confidence. They do not ex-
pect him to do so. On the contrary,
they believe he will avail himself Of
the opportunity, which the panic
stricken supporters of the bonus bill
provide, and return 1t with a message
of condemnation that will add greatly
to his reputation for political presci-
ence and certainly to his popularity
among the people of the country.
The supporters of the President in
Congress as well as outside of 1t are
extremely sanguine that in the end he
will emerge from the bonus conflict
with flying colors. Mr.. McCumber and
some of the leaders of the American
Legion still cling to the flimsy chance
of changing the Presidents viewpoint.
They do not really believe he can be
brought to approve of it. but by subtle
nnuendo broadly hint at it.
The politicians in the American
Legion who are subjecting the Execu-
tive to the full pressure of their propa-
ganda machine held the same belief.
AT least they say they do. The fact
s some of them have urged their
Senatorial supporters to >take the
teeth out of the McCumber bill by
eliminating all provisions for cash
payments. They believe If this is done
they will have a better chance of get
ting what they want at the hands OF
the next Congress. or course, they
will take anything they can get in the
way of a bonus BILL
Recognition of Bonus Principle.
Some of the more sagacious of the
Legion politicians have recently ex-
pressed the opinion that a substitute

Cotton Mills at Lowell
Do Not Fear Shutdown

Special Dispatch TO THE NEW yonK HER.Ln
LOWELL, Mass, Aug 2S.-Industry
here, which comprises miles Of cotton
mills. is in no immediate danger OF a
shutdown by lack OF fuel. The situation
is caused somewhat by mills running
only on part time, due to the strike and
a lack Of orders. Mill agents say they
have enough coal to last four or five
months. Schools In Lowell will have to
burn soft coal for the first time. Three
hospitals have only limited amounts Of
coal. Electric light and gas light plants
say they are well supplied. Only one
fourth OF the householders have partial
supplies OF coal.

Plants in New Jersey
Must Get Coal at Once

Special Dispatch to THE NEW York HERALD.
TRENTON. Aug. 2S.-"Just muddling
along" was the expression used to-day
by a pottery manufacturer in describ-
ing the industrial situation due to tho
coal shortage. In most of the fifty
pottery plants, comprising the largest
single industry In the city, the coal
supply is practically at an end. For
several months the potteries. largely
dependent upon antracite, have been
running merely to fill orders, and have
not attempted to replenish their stock
as 1t was depleted. The use of "sift-
ings" and. where possible, comoina-
tion with substitutes for hard coal has
enabled operation of all plants thus far
on limited output. Brick yards have
experienced similar difficulty.
In other industries. where bituminous
coal forms a possible substitute, the
future depends entirely upon the con-
tinued supply of that form OF fuel for
most of the plants have ALMOST reached
the end of their present supply.

FALL RIVER, Aug. 2s.--There Is no
likelihood at present that the eighty
cotton mill corporations here will be
seriously affected for some time at
least by the diminished coal supply. As
n matter of fact many OF the mills have
been gradually changing over during
the last two years TO the use Of oil and
as consequence the coal situation Is
not source Of worry to them. other
Industrial plants, hat factories and ma
chine shops and the like have been
