McCugl1ber Bonus Plan
VIII Go TO President
If Harding Favors Measure Il;
VIII Bc Rushed Through
the Senate

From The Tribpte's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, May 4.-The Nc
Cumber bonus plan viii be laid be-
fore Pres dent Harding by Senator Nc
Cumber and other leaders on the Sen
ate Finance Committee.
It was decided to-day at meeting of
the Finance Committee Republicans to
present the plan TO the White House
and Senator McCumber was intrustcd
with making an appointment with the
President. The audience probably will
be Saturday, inasmuch as tomorrow is
Cabinet day.
The Finance Committee Republicans
at their meeting tentatively indorsed
the McCumber plan, though the ad-
herents Of the Smoot insurance plan
have not changed their views, and one
or two of those who have given their
support to the McCumber plan reserve
the right to seek changes on the floor.
The situation is such that if the
President indorses the bill it will be
reported quickly and will be passed by
the Senate. On the other hand outright
opposition from the Executive will
complicate the situation materially and
increase the difficulties in the way Of
forcing the bill to a vote in the Senate
The bill will pass the Senate when
a vote can be reached. This is gen
orally conceded. However, there is
uncertainty how far the opposition will
delay the bill by discussion when it is
reported. and continued Pres idential op
position would encourage those who

Contest in Senate
On Confirmation Of
Coldstcin Forecast
Spcncer's Nomination Held
Up Pending Reeds Views
on Missourian Who Took
Check inLowdcn Campaign

From Thc Trtbunc'e Washington B'r'cau
WASHINGTON, May a. The Senate
Finance Committee at meeting day
took up the nomination Of Nat Gold
stein to be collector Of internal reve-
nue. for the St Louis district officially
known as the 1st District Of Missouri.
The committee in all proba ability will
report the nomination favorably, but
there will be contest over it when it
reaches the Senate.
Senator Spencer, Republican, of Mis-
souri,, who sponsored the nomination
of GoldsteIn, and who strongly com
mends him. is desirous Of having him
confirmed as speedily as possible. At
to-day's meeting, which was attended
by the Republican mem bers, it had
been about decided to make a favor
able report, when Senator McCumber,
the chairman, called attention to the
fact that under the usual practice the
colleague of Senator Spencer should be
consulted and asked if he had objec-
tions. 1t was therefore decided to as
certain the views of Senator Reed, who
is in Missouri
Whether Senator Reed will fight the
confirmation of Goldstein is not dis
closed here. 1t is generally assumed
he will do so. He is a member Of the
Finance Committee.
Senator La Toilette, one of the Repub-
llcan members of the committee, indi-
Gated that he desired opportunity to
look into the qualifications Of Goldstein
for the Office. He is expected to oppose
confirmation.
Goldstein is one of the two men who
received check for $4,000 from Jacob
Babler, national committeeman of Mis-
souri,. before delegates we're chosen to
the Republican convention at Chicago.
1t was the understanding that it was
Lowden campaign money. Goldstein
testified he did not use II, and that he
intended to turn it over the Lowden
organiza tion if Lowden should be nom
mated, and hand it back if the Illinois
man was defeated.
The matter became prominent in the
days Of the Chicago convention and in
the investigation by a Senate commit
tee.
Senator Spencer feels that Goldstein
was done an injustice in the affair
and commands him as high type of
citizen and one fully qualified for the
office to which he has been appointed.
However, there is no doubt that Demo
cratic Senators will assail confirmation,
and they may be joined by some Of the
Republicans,

The document is signed by Owen

Advantage for De Valera
The truce conference was most
friendly, and the fact that it was pro
longed is taken here to point to the
arrangement of plan for unity which
the Dali Eireann can accept to-mor-
row. If any such agreement is reached
it is believed to mean an improvement
in the position of Eamon de Valera
and his followers, who would have a
chance to share in the portfolios of the
Dali cabinet. Likewise the dissident
army supporting the De Naleraites
would coalesce with the official army
general headquarters and its generals
resume their high commands in the re-
united body.
Moreover, De Naleras persistent pro-
test against June elections would be
met. for the new parliament to debate
the constitution would be elected with
out contests, labor being given due
share in the new body. This, instead
of displacing the Dali in June, would
give it new lease of life during the
transition period, which, however, must
end before next December, since the
Anglo-lrsh peace treaty prescribes
that Free State elections shall be held
within twelve months of the signature
Of the treaty.
