ting unheard Of prices, there
were thousands Of men in gov
eminent service doing these same
lines of work and doing them fully
as well and receiving 800 per day.
Railroad employees received sky high
wages while the U. s. government
owned extensive railroads in France
operated by soldiers who received
only the army pay (s1.00 per day..
When the soldier was discharged
he was paid bonus Of $4,000, which
under the high prices which prevailed
at that time would not buy decent
outfit of civilian clothes, TO say moth
ing Of tiding him over until he could
find employment, and thousands Of
discharged men were unable to find
employment for many months. The
great host of civilian employees who
were employed by the government
during the war we're paid salaries
ranging anywhere from $4,000 to
$4,000 per month, or even more, and
when Uncle Sam got thru with them,
they were paid a bonus which was
five or six times the amount paid to
the soldiers at time of discharge.
Attention is also called to the fact
that Beside the many millions Of
lsople who sacrificed and did their
bit, there are at least four million
ether men who were on the draft list
and we're waiting for their call to GO
into service as others had gone"
This is all true, but while these were
waiting for their call they were hold
ing down their jobs at prices which
were in many cases five times as
much as the soldier received. The
bonus is not price for patriotism
but an honest attempt to give the
men who served the flag a standing

Soon after the close Of the Revolt

Americas greatest foreign friend,

THE SOLDIER BONUS
Ito The Citizen)

noticed an editorial in The Citi-
zen published February 90, 1922, I'M
der the above caption, in which the
editor gives his views on the much
discussed question Of paying a bonus
10 the ex-service men who served in
the World War.
He asks, What does the United
States owe the ex-soldier Of the
World War;" First, let me say, that
the United States owes to these ex.
soldiers an acknowledgement of the
fact that had it not been for the men
who left their homes, their loved
ones, their jobs, their ambitions,
and all that life held dear to
them, and faced and defeated the
deadly Hun at Chateau-Thierry,
Vinny Ridge. Second Battle of
the Marine, st. Mihiel and the Ar
gonne forest, Germany would now
have been in complete control of
Europe and rapidly preparing, if not
already prepared, to wage the most
terrible war ever conceived in the
mind of mortal man on 'the land of
the free and the home of the brave"
Instead of going to France to see
the terrible destruction and horror of
war, we would in all probability have
been forced to see our own coast,
cities, and farms utterly destroyed
and our women and children murder
ed, without mercy, as they were in
stricken Belgium and Armenia. When
the American people get these truths
thoroly planted in their minds, it
will go long ways toward showing
them their true relation to the ex.
service men.
Next he asks, as patriotism so
cheap and on such a low plane of
value as to be compensated for by a
small monetary consideration As
an ex-service man say no, but any
right-thinking man knows that the
proposed Soldiers Bonus bill was
never intended to be thought of as a
price for patriotism, but was advocat-
ed as means of giving the man who
served his country at sl.0O per day
a chance TO get on his feet financial
ly so that he may be able to com.
pete with other men who stayed at
home and received fabulous prices
for their work. While unskilled Ia
borers were getting $500 to $500 per
day and mechanics, electricians, motor
men, carpenters, blacksmiths, paint
ers, etc, were getting $500 to 5000
per day and clerks in government en-
ploy, stenographers, etc, were get

HITCH IN BONUS PLAN
Idea of Combining With Foreign Debt
Has Been Abandoned.

Washington, Jan. 13-The soldier
bonus bill will not be made a part of
the allied debt refunding bill, said
Chairman McCumber Of the senate
finance committee tonight after a Sc
ries of conferences had been held be-
tween senate leaders to discuss the de-
STABILITY of merging the twp and 1t
had become known at the White House
that President Harding did not look
with favor upon the suggestion that
they be combined.
The foreign debt BILL Senator Nc
Cumber said, would be taken up by
the finance committee Monday in the
hope that 1t would be put into shape
at that time for reporting to the sem
ate. 1t was the intention, he added,
to eliminate some of the features to
which the treasury department has OBJ
jected and which have resulted in the
measure being held in committee for
several weeks. These include pro-
visions for semi-annual payment Of
interest and that the rate shall not
be less than 8 per cent.
Although the merger plan was or
iginally received favorabiy. by a mum.
ber of senate leaders the president
was said to regard 1t as impractical
and his view was reflected in further
conferences today between the senate
leaders.
The presidents objection to the
merger was said by callers at the
White House today to be based on his
desire for the assurance that provis-
ions definitely would be made for pay
meIt Of the bonus. So far as the re-
funding bill is concerned, he was said
to believe that the refunding process
should be developed to insure returns
from the allied loans before steps were
taken to pledge them for bonus.
He was represented, however, as
not hostile to the suggestion that the
interest or principal Of the allied loans
be used for paying the bonus once
they were available. II was stated
definitely that he also would not op-
pose a sales tax for the purpose of
paying the bonus IL congress should
decide upon that PLAN !f.
The president, however, was said to
regard as impractical a suggestion
that over 100000 in the hands of
the alien property custodian be used
for bonus payments. These funds. 1t
was said, were regarded as pledged
technically to private individuals
whose property was taken.
