SENATE FINANCE
TO TACKLE SOLDIER
BONUS BILL TODAY

Washington, Apr. 21-Republicans
of the Senate finance committee will
hold their first conference tomorrow
on the soldiers bonus bill passed last
month by the House. Chairman Nc
Cumber said today there will be a
general discussion of the whole sub
ject, adding it was too early to I'M
dertake to say what form the bill fin
ally would take.
The North Dakota sc nator made,
known his opposition to the plan
suggested recently by some Republi-
can senators, Of attaching the bonus
bill to the pending tariff measure.
He said also that he was not favor
ably disposed to any plan of financ-
ing the bonus with certificates of in
debtedness, but declared that even
this was preferable to any PROPOSE
ton calling for added taxation.
1t is Senator McCumbers idea that
the bill reported to the Senate should
contemplate minimum of expendi-
ture in the fiscal year 1923. He re-

great a strain on the federal treas
ury at the start.
Chairman McCumber said he was
hopeful that a plan Of financing the
bonus bill by use of part of the re-
funded foreign debt could be worked
out but he suggested no details.
With the American debt refunding
commission ready for business. a
plumber of senators hope that at
least part of the new British bonds
can be in the hands of the govern
ment about the time the bonus meas
ure finally is passed by congress.
Senator McCumher said that he
had not yet discussed the bonus legis-
lation with President Harding and
had no present plans to do so but
that he might take the matter up
with the President later.

META0DISTS VOTE TO
UNITE CONFERENCES
AT AUBURN SESSION

Auburn, Me-, Apr. 21-The Maine
Methodist conference in session here
voted this morning, 40 to 2S. to unite
with the East Maine Methodist con-
ference. This brings the matter be-
fore the East Maine conference to
vote in concurrence or to reject the
merger
The question of uniting was re-
ferred a year. ago by the Maine and
East Maine conferences to a joint
mission. This commission re-
ported today-eight in favor. one
against. and one not voting. Its re-
port was then endorsed by the con-
ference as a committee of the whole.
1t is believed here that an over
whelming endorsement by the East
Maine conference will follow.
The question Of uniting has been
considered by the two conferences
for many years. but formal motions
to this effect have up to the present
been voted down.
Conferences delegates were guests
at a banquet rendered by Boston
University this evening. Later Bishop
Mcconnell lectufed on China. Intro
duction of modern industrial meth
DDS in China on large scale would
be a perfect calamity to the human
race. he said. because of the added
incentive to the already continuous
fight for existence. He character
lied the boycott as China's deadliest
weapon against Japan and added
when the Chinese get ready for the
Japs to go they will go; and if they
take my advice they'll hurry"

C0AKLEY IS
BARRED FROM
MASS. COURTS
Court Order Says on
Charges EXtortion
and Perjury
Judge Jenney Says Evidence
Submitted by Boston Bar AS
ISOLATION Sustained Charges
No Defense by Coakley-
Claimed Was ''No Day in
Court for Him"

Boston, April 21-An order for
the disbarment OF Daniel H. Coax
ley prominent Boston attorney on
charges Of extortion and perjury,
preferred by the Boston Bar Asso-
citation was directed late today by
Judge Charles F. Jenney of the
Superior court. 1t was alleged by
the bar association that in 1918
Coakley entered into a conspiracy to
secure the commission of crime by
Captain Charles f. Searns in order
to enable Helen w. Stearns, wife of
Captain Stearns to obtain a divorce
on the ground of adultery, and that
in July. 1921, at the trial of Former
District Attorney Nathan A. Tufts,
before the Supreme Judicial Court,
Coakley testified falsely under oath.
Earlier in the week Coakley, whose
name was mentioned frequently in
the trials of Tufts and joseph c.
Pelletier. removed as district attor-
neys, respectively of Middlesex
counties, withdrew from the hear
ings before Judge Jenney after an
nouncing that it was "humanly i'm
possible" for him to get his day in
court. He argued that as Judge
Jenney, assigned to hear the petit
ton of the Bar Association had con-
CURED in the decision of the full
bench removing Tufts and Pelletier,
the court was powerless TO give him
an impartial trial.
Before this court I am prejudic-
ed" said Coakley at is not a hear
ing that is offered me, but an au-
topsy.'
In his findings today the judge de-
clared the evidence submitted. to him
by the Bar Associa ton sustained the
charges against Coakley and he
pointed out that no attempt had been
made to explain or controvert that
evidence to supplement it with other
evidence tending to show that the
conclusions reached in the Tufts case
were incorrect.

FORMER AUGUSTA
BOY IN WIRELESS
LITIGATION, BOSTON

Boston, April 21-The first radio
litigation to come before the Boston
courts went on trial before Judge
O'Connell and a jury in the Suffolk
superior court late today and first
aroused interest and then bewilder-
ment when highly technical terms
were broadcasted about the court
room.
The suit was brought by Lloyd
Green of Everett, against the Radio
Time Service, Inc, of Boston for re-
covery of 1925 for work ne claimed
to have done for the company.
Green stated he was contracted with
the defendant to devise and develop
loop antennae and other apparatus
for the receipt of time signals from
the Arlington, Va, government sta
ton without the use of outdoor, an
tennae.
On the stand Mr.. Green plunged
into mass of radio phraseology
which puzzled judge, jury and coun-
sci to the extent that the court re-
quested Mr.. Green to explain just
what was meant by antennae of both
the plain and loop variety, radio ac-
tivity. ether and the like. Four
o'clock came before the messages
were decided, and Judge O'Connell
ordered postponement until Mon
day to give the jury a chance to
study radio technicalities.
Lloyd Green was formerly q resi-
dent of Augusta and was employed
as a linotype operator on the journal
a few years ago. While here he be-
came interested in wireless. and later
with the entrance of the L. S. into
the World war, enlisted in the navy
and held down a wireless operator
job on the transport Mongolia.

Dr. Harvey said that to make

that he also will resign.
The dissention, which has been
sinoldering since last October, when
charges were made that the CHURCH
was living beyond its income, blazeo
UP at Thursdays v-stry meeting. The
gathering was described as stormy
with hot words passing between DR.
Grant and at least ono vestryman.
Several members OF the yes;ry sug-
sested retrenchment all along the line.
At first. IL was said, Or. Grant received
these suggestions lightly. but later ne
became so hostile that Mr.. White SAID
he would resign.
The former Government official who
said he would resign. Is understood W
have taken exception to the manner ~
which Dr. Grant treated the suggestions
of the treasurer, which hc felt were
sound AID for the good or the church
A vestryman said yesterday that Dr.
Grant persisted in conducting tho church
affairs on a basis of twelve years ago
and that while the overhead. now 5000
a year, was constantly mounting the
church's income had not increased ma
terially. The church. however. is SOL
vent and independent In regard TO In
debtedncss. DIR. Grants salary, more
over, IS not involved in the present
controversy.
The offering OF his resignation by Mr.
White. who had just returned from a
trip TO Bermuda. precipitated n heated
discussion at the meeting. but adjourn
ment was taken without any action be-
ing decided upon. The former Govern

w IASHINGTON. April 21.--
w When the Harvard Glee
Club made a round of the
soldier hospitals here yesterday and
did its bit TO cheer the way for the
sick and disabled it came TO one
where a soldier lay dying.
There was some. question whether
the club ought to sing. Somebody
suggested that the decision be made
by the soldier.
Sure, let 'em sing" said he. "it
will be a happy memory TO carry
across with mef'
So the club gladdened the invaiids
with song and harmony for an
hour and none responded more
eagerly than the dying soldier.
To-day he was still alive and the
doctors say that maybe he won't
die for some time.
