IN CONGRESS-
SENATE


The Senate met at II a. m, and
recessed at 6:10 p. M, until today at
II a. m.
The Senate spent the day voting
on amendments to the soldier ootius
bill, anticipating a final vote on the
bill today or tomorrow.
Adoption an amendment offered by
Senator Simmons (Democrat), North
Carolina, providing for payment OF
the bonus with interest on foreign
! Indebtedness TO the United States
The amendment further provided
that if the interest charges are not
J sufficient TO meet the appropriation
that the necessary funds to be paid
out of the Treasury.
There was no roll call vote on the
Simmons amendment, but DIVISION
showed 80 senators for 1t and L
AGAINST it. Senator Harry New (Re-
publican), Indiana, cast the negative
vote.
After discussion lasting throughout
much of the day, the McNary land
reclamation amendment to the sold
Ter bonus bill was adopted by vote
of 3 to 20.
Opposing the McNary amendment
in a spirited speech, Chairman Nc
Cumber declared it would add hun
dreds of millions, and perhaps bill
lions of dollars to the cost of the
bonus program.
Replying to a query by Senator
McCumber, Senator McNary said ne
thought he could say the President
thinks more Of his amendment than
of other features of the bonus bill.
Opposition to the principle of It
bonus was expressed by Senator Ster-
ling (Republican), South Dakota,
who declared the pending measure to
be ''indefensibe."
Senator Sterling declared the very
terms of the bill were vicious; that
instead of encouraging thrift, they
invite prOdigality and recklessness. "
Senator Simmons said that he con-
sidered neither the bill nor the Nc
Nary amendment were perfect, but
announced that he proposed TO vote
for both of them.
Senator Lenroot (Repubhcan), Wis
consin. among others, warned friends
of the bonus that the addition Of the
reclamation project might furnish an
additional reason" for an executive
veto That project, he said, was inn
portant enough to be considered sep
arately on its merits.
Senator Capper (Republican), Kan
sas, declared he considered the bonus
cas- nothing more than a square deal
for the boys who did the fighting"
and that "the war profiteers and the
peace profiteers owe a bonus to the
soldiers of the world war"
In his report on the administration
bill to prevent profittering in coal
through control of interstate ship
ments, Senator Cummins said that
unless the cOal-carying roads can
speedily increase their facilities the
country will be in the same position
as though the bitUminous coal strike
had not ended.
The report said it seemed to the
committee that Congress must
choose between 4 measure Of this
