Democrats Are Chuckiing.

Senator Simmons IN. CO. said he has
been so busy with the tariff bill that he
has not had time to give any serious
thought recently to the bonus. and thus
he dismissed the subject.
In truth the Democratic Senator's
those for and against the bonus-are
secretly chuckling over the distress In
which the Republican leaders find tnem-
selves over the bonus. They realize 'hc
odium for such an economic blundcr
will be on the majority party.
Senators opposed to the bonus pointed
out that inasmuch as the Treasury De-
partment's plans TO redeem Victory
notes and Liberty bonds soon to mature
by using the funds from the foreign war
debt likely will fail to materillize, i
would be a legislative crime for Con-
gress to saddle the Treasury Depart
ment with the bonus measure.
The fact Is that recent developments
concerning the loans made to European
govern ments have been a severe blow to
the bonus raiders. They are now like a
drowning man grasping at straws, hop
ing thus to be saved.
Another distressing development to-
day for the bonus battalion was the
failure of the Senate 10 agree upon an
carly vote on the tariff bill. Charges
were made in the corridors and the
cloakrooms that the real reason back
OF the move TO block a vote on the
tariff bill was the desire Of the Repub-
lican leaders TO sidestep the bonus issue

Man Seen Leaving House.

Last Friday a maid in the home OF
Mrs. Willard Straight at the corner
of Fifth avenue and Ninety-fourth
street saw a man leaving the Marks
house, carrying two large suit cases.
The maid knew the house was empty
and reported the matter to a private
watchman. The watchman made hasty
examination and then notified the police
OF the East 104th street station. Until
yesterday the police we're trying to
communicate with the members of the
two families
Justice Greenbaum lamented particu-
larly the loss of large silver loving
cup, three feet high, which had been
given him by his children on the occa-
sion OF his silver wedding. War trophies
belonging to the Justices son Edward
were also taken. The son served in
the Judge Advocates office in the war
and had gathered together In France a
number Of relies of the battlefield which
he had contemplated taking to his own
home. He was married recently and
had given up his room in his fathers
house.
Mr.. Marks also lost innumerable OBJ
jects of sentimental value, including
the loving cup given him for his work
in behalf of daylight saving and medals
and other loving cups given In testi-
mony of his public activities. Some OF
the things taken were of comparatively
little intrinsic value. but the burglars
overlooked nothing.
The police put the loss down as
considerable" Neither owner would
make any estimate yesterday. A ue-
scripticn OF the man seen leaving the
Marks house is in the possession Of
the police and general alarm has been
sent to pawnshops and dealers TO look
out for such of the valuables as are
known to have been stolen.

Justice Greenbaum was with his ram

on his way back. He returned to this
CITY last Friday, but didn't go TO his
home because the house was closed, the
family being away.
In the Greenbaum house books had
been pulled from the shelves and
thrown onto the floor as the robbers
searched for hidden valuables. In the
Marks house a small safe on an upper
floor had been blown open and emptied'

Washington, ID. G., Aug. ;.
The gloomy prospect of collecting
the foreign war debt, as evidenced by
the suggestions made by Great Britain
that all nations cancel their war obli-
cations. caused great anxiety to-day in
the ranks of the bonus battalion OF the
Senate.
Practically every Senator on the
Democratic side, who favors the s5, 5,Oo0,-
100000 recommended, is on record in
favor of paying the bonus from the
interest on the money owed to the
United States by European govern
ments. They have argued that If such
a method of payment is provided in
the bill, taxpayers would not feel the
burden.
That argument was used also by many
members Of the House when the measure
was before that body. When the ques-
tion came before the Senate In May
Senators Simmons IN. c., Jones On.
NJ. Harrison (Miss.) and other Demo-
cratic Senators condemned the different
taxation proposals to raise the funds
saying the people already were saddled
with taxes that were almost breaking
their backs. Then they urged the use
of the foreign loans for the purpose.
For a time Chairman McCumber of
the Finance Committee thought favor
ably of that plan, but reluctantly he
agreed with the Treasury Department
that any money collected from Europe
was needed to redeem Victory notes and
Liberty bonds soon to mature.
The New York herald., 1922-08-04
Hopes still fingered.

Time and again In the early discus
sions of the bonus bill It was asserted
on the floor of the Senate that the
interest on the foreign debt especially
that owed by Great Britain, would be
available by July l OF this year. When
that time passed and no funds had been
received advocates of the plan still
entertained lingering hopes that the
money would be forthcoming In time Ia
meet the obligations of the bonus bill
since its passage had been delayed.
But even the most optimistic OF the
bonus Senators. and those most deter.
mined. to jam through the BILL have
abandoned all hope Of having the meas
ure financed In whole or in part. by the
foreign war debt. Not that they intend
to submit gracefully to the suggestions
thrown out by Great Britain for can
collation. OF that obligation. There is nc
denying the fact that the sentiment Is
almost unanimous in the Senate in favor
OF demanding full payments of the loans
in keeping with the terms agreed upon
when they were made to the allied
nations. Yet the Senator'S realize that
the settlement In all probability is a
matter of the future. and the question
may become so involved that il would
be absurd to base the bonus bill upon
such fiimsy foundation.
Democratic Senators In favor of a
bonus are not bothering much about the
financial problems involved.
THE Senators on the other side are
shaping the economic policies Of the
Government at this time" declared SEN
ator Harrison tMiss.) when asked what
plans the Democrats now have to
finance the bonus.
