2,500, 900 Liquor Drinkers
 M z. s. Says Federal Man

WASHINGTON, Feb. S.-There are still 2,500,000 whiskey drinkers in the United States, according to Prohibition Commissioner Haynes.
 MT. Haynes estimates that out of the estimated 2,500,000 regular whis- key drinkers, at least 100000 are in the class of old drinkers who imbibe almost at will. and as freely as pocket books will stand, under prices of bev- craze liquor that are well night pro- hibitive for the average man with average earnings.
 But this admission, it must be re- membered that Commissioner Haynes recalls that in the old wet days there were 20000,000 liquor drinkers in the United States. He figured that IT, 500 0O0 drinkers have quit And he be- lieves that of those who now find it possible or practicable to imbibe In beverage intoxicants, those of that class are consuming only 5 per cent of the quantity they were accustomed to drink in the pre-prohibition days.
 When the rosy reports of "dry" di- rectors go into the filing cabinets and tours of personal observation are made it has not required officials long to discover that the country has far to go before a state of dryness that pro hibition enthusiasts had hoped for can be an actual fact

 The whiskey handlers have kept the whiskey avenues open, and prob ably even the prohibition chiefs can only guess, with their limited facili- ties for detecting the sources, just how much illicit liquor Is flowing over the country.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 8. - To the "Yank" who got into the war early and stayed late the soldier bonus bill which now seems certain to pass the Senate speedily, would mean sun sufficient to set him up iii business ir a small way and to secure his future independence if he invests it judicious 1y.
 If he served overseas the full period of war he could draw a maximum in cash, of s95S.25. If he served at home he could draw a mamixum of $755 This is figured on the full period from April 6, 1917, to June 30, 1919 inclusive, the maximum period fol which soldier will be able to draw adjusted compensation if the bill is passed If he served overseas he would get s1.25 a day less the $60 bonus already paid, and if he served at home he would get $1 a day less the same $60.
 But there are features to the pro- posed bill by which he could draw nearly half as much more if he doesn't take it in cash. He could even get this additional amount in cash if he uses it to pay his way through school
 Five different plans of compensa- tion are provided. The four, in addi' tion to the cash plan, are the adjust ed service certificate" or paid-up en dowment insurance plan; the "voca- tional training aid" plan, the farm or home aid" plan and the "land settle ment aid" plan.
 INSURANCE PLAN IS EXPLAINED
 The "adjusted service certificate, or insurance plan, is in the nature of a twenty-year insurance policy. At the end of twenty years the veteran would receive in cash 140 per cent of what he would receive if he took a cash payment at once, plus AZ per cent in terest.
 That means if he served overseas the maximum period of the war he would draw at the end of the twenty yead $1.342.25 in cash, plus AZ per cent compounded semi-annually.
 If he served at home for the maxi mum period he would draw S1,o57 plus the same interest.
 fife he died before twenty years his estate would receive the full amount that would be due, ordinarily, at the end of twenty years.
 If he wished to borrow on this cer' tificate he could get, in the third year 90 per cent of his adjusted service pay at AZ per cent interest. As the certificte grew "older" he would be enabled to borrow continually increas- ing amounts.
 VOCATIONAL TRAINING IS
 OPTIONAL
 If the veteran chose the vocational training plan he would also receive 140 per cent of what he would ordi. narily receive in cash. He would re- ceive this monthly at the rate of $175 a day for the period of training. As in the insurance plan this would mean the overseas man could receive a maximum of $1,342.25 and the home service man could get maximum of $1,057.
 The Harm or home aid plan" would authorize the veteran to receive from the government the adjusted service pay plus an additoinals 40 per cent If he applied the money toward the pur- chase of a farm or home. As in the insurance and the training plans, the maximum amounts would be $1,342.25 and $1,057 for the two classes q vet erans.

would give the veteran the preference right to take lands on the opening of public or Indian lands or of reclama tion projects. He would be permit ted to file on such lands as early as sixty days prior to their opening for general public entry. In addition under this plan, the veteran would be entitled to his adjusted compensation plus 70 per cent, but would have tc apply it entirely in making payments Gin connection with the lands on which he has made entry.
 MAJORITY WILL NOT GET
 MAXIMUM
 Of course, the majority of former service men would not receive the maximum amount due for either home or overseas service. The latter group would include soldiers and sailors who were on foreign service at the out break of the war. mostly regulars.
 The full period" home service men would be very considerable and would include, in addition to the regular army and navy men who were in the service at the time the war broke out, many national guardsmen who had not vet been mustered out after Mexican border duty and many who jumped into the game" when it seemed that war was imminent.
 However, even the veteran who served only one year or six months would receive amounts of tidy propor- tions.
 If he served one year overseas he could draw s396.25 cash or $554.74 on either of the other four plans. If he served one year at home he could draw s3O5 in cash or s427 on one Of the other four plans.
 If he served. six months overseas he could draw s175 cash or S245 on any of the, other four plans. If he served six months at home he could draw SIPS in cash or $17S.20 on one of the other four plans.
