WEATHER
HOUSE TO VOTE
ON BONUS TODAY

washington, March %. - Extreme
confidence that the soldiers bonus bill
would be passed by the house before
sundowr tomorrow was expressed
today of Republican leaders in
charge Of the legislation. The last
preliminary step to the presentation
OF their program was taken today with
the adoption by the rules committee
OF resolution making tomorrow sus-
pension day and setting four hours
instead of the usual 40 minutec for
debate
This resolution was to be presented
"hen the house convened at Ii a. m.
tomorrow, an hour ahead of the usual
time. Democratic leaders planned to
make determined fight against the
resolution but the Republicans were
satisfied that it would obtain the nee
essary majority for its adoption.
With the adoption of the rule,
Speaker Gil!ett was expected to rec
ognize Chairman Fordney Of the ways
and means committee for a motion to
suspend the rules and pass the bonus
bill.
A two-thirds majority would be nee
essary to suspend the rules and pass
the Dill but 1t was stated on all sides
that far more than this majority
would he obtained Leading support.
crs OF the measure did not expect the
total votes against it TO exceed 70
while some opponents said the mega.
tive vote probably would not 90 be-
yond 50.
Under suspension OF the rules the
hill could not be amended in any par
ticular nor could opponents offer q
motion to recommit with ms, ructious
to the ways and means committee to
make changes in the measure. Demo-
cratic leaders in their flight on the
resolution for suspension planned TO
lay emphasis upon this situation. They
expect the minority membership TO
vote almost solidly against the reso-
luton and counted on some support
from the Republican side.
After a conference today with Pres
ident Harding about his bill TO appro-
pirate $17,00O,O0O for hospitals for
sick and disabled veterans, Represen-
tative Langley (Republican) Of Ken
lucky announced that he would try to
call the measure up ahead of the
bonus bill. Representative Mondell of
Wyoming leader, and Chairman
Campbell of the rules committee said,

cioff nf''i ~ ia SSitalSza-
Informal conferences Of some staSr@
delegates We're held today with view
to obtaining an exact lineup Of the
members on the bonus and others will
be held tomorrow. 1t was indicated
that the greatest opposition to the
bonus from the Republican side would
come from the New York and New
England delegations. The opposition
on the Democratic side was expected
to be scattered.
