Mondell believes that by trimming
the various appropriation bills
enough can be raised to carry the
bonus through the first year.
Mondell was emphatic in his be-

not be invoked. While this tax has
considerable support, It stands little
chance Of surmounting the wide op-

President Harding, Congress and
the people. he said, are strongly op-
posed to special taxes, sales tax or
a bond issue, leaving only a pairing

Of the naval holiday to provide the

official organizations are issuing com
