Senator MoCumber has reported
his bonus bill TO the Senate. It has
not improved with age. Nor does
the accompanying report dispose Of
the objects which have been urged
from the beginning against a meas
ure Of this sort, which involves about
$4,000. 100000 of expenditure and
yet provides no new revenue with
which to meet II.
The Senate bill is almost identical
with the House bill. II ignores
President Harding's announcement
that he could not approve any bonus
act which did not pay It's own way.
The President informed Congress
that he would gladly sign a bonus
bill coupled with a sales tax. There
is nc allusion TO a sales tax in the
McCumber bill.
The report. moreover, holds out
the hope that the bonus will be
taken care of through repayment of
the war loans made to the Allied
nations. The act which authorized
the issue of Liberty bonds and the
advance to our allies of about S10,-

DeLalUare Politics
(From wilmington Morning News.)

So far as the Republican party is
concerned. the political campaign OF
1922 has been opened by the public
statement recently given out by
Thomas Coleman dupont, the Junior
United States Senator from this
State, in which he clearly defines his
position and says that, IL the party
desires 1t, he is willing to be the Re-
publican senatorial candidate for the
term beginning on the 4th Of March
next.
II will be generally admitted that
our junior Senator would be the
strongest candidate the Republicans
could name. He has a great many
friends and admirers throughout the
whole State, and is especially popu-
lar in the two lower counties, where
the highways, due to his public
spirit and business ability, have
brought about a marvellous change
in conditions.
Up to the present time he has no
competitor, and II seems to be
foregone conclusion that he will be
nominated as the Republican candi-
date for the United States Senate.
