REV. w. F. FRAZIER
Is
Elected by Vermont Congregational Con-
ference - Organic Union of Pro-
testant Churches Approved.

SPRINGFIELD, May 11.-Rey. Viii
liam F. Frazier of Vergennes was yester-
day elected secretary of the Vermont
Congregational conference, in succession
to Rev. Charles c. Merrill, who resigned
to become superintendent Of the Illinois
conference.
Mr.. Frazier was born in Bath. y. Y.
81 years ago. lie was graduated from
Oberlin college in 1910, and from the
Drew Theological seminary. Madison. y.
J.. in 1917. He accepted the pastorate
at Nergennes on Feb. /, 1919, after doing
mission work among foreigners at Little
Ferry. \. Y. Previously he had spent
two years preaching in the mountain
district of Pennsylvania.
The conference approved the plan of
the Presbyterian body for organic union
Of all Protestant churches into a federal
body to be called The United Churches
Of Christ in the United States, with a
council having two representatives for
every 100000 members. for the purpose
of co-ordinating missionary efforts and
uniting churches in local communities.
The national Congregational conference
in Los Angeles last fall referred the mat
ter to state conferences for action. and
the Vermont conference is the fourth ia
approve it.

Speculation About a Veto.

Curiously enough despite Mr.. Hard
ing's positive statements to Washington
correspondents to the effect that he
hasn't changed his mind on the bonus
question and would soon reiterate his
views to members of the senate. specu-
lation continues as to whether the chief
executive will finally veto the bill. Some
predict that he will not sign it, prefer
ring to let it become law by the lapse of
10 days. Others who have heard the
President express irritation over the
tendency in some congressional quarters
TO regard him as changing with the
winds believe he win give an example of
steadfastness this time and stick to his
original position. if for no other reason
han to stand by Secretary Mellon and
TO impress congress- with the fact that
he means what he SAYS. Some presi-
dents have had sufficient influence with
their own party in congress to prevent
embarrassing measures from being
brought to vote by mere threat of a veto.
The inclination of Republican leaders
has been to force Mr.. Harding to ap-
prove measures which he would just as
soon see shelved for other bills of more
vital Importance to the administration.
The bonus fight is a test of executive
backbone but at the same time it will
also be proof of congressional insistence.

sheriff and he became sheriff in 1906.
He continued to hold Office until 1919.
when he retired and Henry Il. Adams,
the present incumbent, was elected, APP
pointing him deputy.
Fish had been an officer of the law
for 60 years. He is survived by two
brothers. The funeral will be at the

Especial Despatch to The Reformer.)
Copyright 1922.
WASHINGTON, May 11.-President
Harding win veto the bonus bin if it
comes to him in its present form, which
seems certain now as the American
Legion leaders have expressed themselves
as opposed to the plan suggested by Sem
ator Smoot and in favor of Senator Nc
Cumber's proposals which are in line
with the house bill.
Should Mr.. Harding veto the meas
ure the chances are it will become law
necessary two. thirds vote available in
the house and the senate vote, while
close, VIII be sufficient to enact the bin.
There may be a change, of course, by
the time the bill comes up for a final
vote following the veto, but if the Presi-
dent were to send such a message to-
morrow and the vote were to be taken
Immediately thereafter the measure
would become law over the veto.
Enough members of the senate have
committed themselves to the bonus by
public speeches or private letters to in
sure a majority. Realizing that the real
hight may come after the veto, the pro-
ponents of the bogus are busy trying to
line up more strength for the initial
vote. If they can commit enough mem
hers of the senate the first time they
will have little difficulty after the veto
as it rarely happens that votes are
changed after a veto message.
Hopes Sentiment Will Change.
The President, nevertheless. will at
tempt to swing public opinion in his
direction with the letter he is writing to
Senator McCumber, chairman of the
finance committee. He will have an
other opportunity when the veto message
is written. Mr.. Harding hopes that the
tide will turn in favor of postponemen
IF the bonus payments until government
finances are in better condition. He will
not ppose the bonus in principle. He
feels committed to that because of his
campaign pledge. But he insists thai
1t should wait.
Canvass of the senate by members of
the American Legion shows. however,
that the Presidents plea will not be
headed by enough senators to postpone
the bonus. Nineteen senators have
lined up definitely and answered mo
TO the American Legion's canvass. while
Do senators have said yes" Twenty
one have not been heard from but out OF
those at least IL are counted on to sup
port the McCumber plan. This would
mean more thar the necessary two
thirds.

An interesting chapter is do voted to the killing, through the op- eration of a mantrap-a loaded gun set to gu9rd a dcor--of an Indian at Chilkoot. and the trial in the course of which it was sought to connect the hero with the crime.
