is made defendant in suit filed
by the Pacific Power & Light
company of Astoria in the circuit
court of Clatsop county asking
that the recent order OF the com

road brotherhoods and organizations.
approximately 100000 workers are

In a formal statement 1t was made
plain that no agreement was reached
that concerted action would be taken.
This was impossible, it was explain
ed, because the several executives had
not been advised by their mem ber-
ship whether or not they would be
authorized to call a strike.
Mr. Jewell, in a statement, declared
the wages of the seven larger groups
of rail workers, under the new rail-
road Labor Board orders, do not
permit of a living wage and are
wholly at variance with the saving
wage championed by Secretary Of

PRESIDENT MAY
VETO BONUS BILL
Present Plan Said to Be
Viewed by Him as Not for
Country's Interest.
BY n. O. MESSENGER.

President Harding, according to
credible information, Is likely to veto
the soldiers bonus bill II 1t comes
consideration. House and Senate re-
publicans appear to be intent upon
sending a bill to him and putting him
to the test as to the exercise Of the
veto prerogative.
This condition Of affairs is the sub
5ect of animadversion by the Presi-
dents friends in Congress, who are
disposed to rthe view that the Presi-
dent Is being put in a position in a
way which is not quite fair to him.
Tho contention of the congressman is
said to be In effect that THE Presi-
to counteract criticism from the ex-
service men for possible veto
while we are facing them at the
polls next November. We must save
our bacon, and now is the appointed
time to do it,
Coercion Not Considered.
The President is understood by his
friends to be impervious to political
considerations in connection with
this legislation. He is said to hold
that in any of the forms now pre-
sented, the legislation would not be
for the best interests of the whole
country. If it is asked why the
President does not then use his pre-
sumed influence to head off the legis-
lation, the Presidents friends reply
that he declared at the outset Of his
administration he would not seek
to dictate to Congress. There is a
difference, 1t is contended, between
coercion of Congress during the
tendency of legislation and it's sub
sequent veto. The latter is a power
vested in the chief executive by
the Constitution Of the United States
and can not be classed as dictalion
1t Is also pointed out that, in re-
sponse to a legitimate inquiry, the
President has indicated In a letter.
over his own signature, his opinion
of some features of the legislation
be understood that the President has
in any way threatened a veto. since
that would be indirect dictation.
The Presidents position, as an
alyZed by his friends in Congress, is
dignified and consistent. He will not
seek to sway Congress in the exer-
else of the constitutional functions
of the legislative branch, not even to
the extent of indicating intention to
use the veto and, in an entirely legit-
innate way, has allowed his views
upon the subject to be known.
Rssent Bonus Insistence.
Some Of tho Presidents friends are
resentful of the course which they
attribute to the republicans, who are
pushing the bonus legislation, alleg-
ing it to be political selfishness. They
console themselves in the thought,
however that even If the President
is forced to the alternative Of a veto
and should adopt it, there might be
compensation to him in the approval
Of an important section of the
public.
Recent primaries in widely separ.
ated sections of the country have
not, 1t Is contended, served to indi-
cate unanimous support of the SOL
dier bonus. 1t may take country
wide election to finally bring out the
full extent Of the public feeling on
the subject. There are many re-
publicans in both House and Senate
who entertain misgivings as to the
bonus legislation meeting the ap-
proval Of the majority.

CHINESE ON VERGE
OF NEW CIVIL WAR
Py the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PEKING, June 7.-Developments of
the last twenty-four hours indicated
early today that China. which a few
days ago seemed on the verge of q
unified government, located here, was
in grave danger of a worse split than
ever, with the north and south drift
ing only toward civil war.
Wu PeiFu's plan for Lii Yuan-Hung
TO resume the presidency of a CEN
tralized government in Peking was
feared to have shattered itself against
a rock of opposition in the form of
Sun Vat Sen. who, according to ad-
clared he would refuse to relinquish
the presidency of his South China re-
public at Canton.

wu had won the support of about
500 members Of the old national par
lament, now assembled at Tientsin,
TO take back the executive offlce, from
which he was ousted by the militar-
lists in 1917. Lii, however, withheld
his acceptance pending certain condi-
tions, one of which was the disso-
luton of the South China republic.
Yuan-Hung. If he accepted. there
seemed no obstacle in the way of the
scheme Gen. WI and his supporters
suggested after he had conquered
Chang Tso-Lin in battle and driven
him back into Manchuria.
Since the resignation of Hsu Shih-
Chang as president, the Peking gov
ernment-the only government which
has been recognized by the foreign
powers-has been in the hands Of a
citizens committee.
In the last ten days Wu has said
that unless Sun resigned the Chill
forces of WI would invade the South
China territory.
Reports yesterday also stated that
Sun had persuaded many members of

according to Canton advices, was en-

entirely upon Chairman Focht of the

under unanimous consent or on some

The House District committee is to
confer tomorrow regarding when the

favor of instructing Chairman Focht
to endeavor to pass this resolution at
once under a unanimous consent re-
quest
The District committee is particu-
iarly anxious to have this fiscal in
vestigation started as soon as posi-
Bile because they have learned that
the conferees on the District approL
priation bill are waiting such action
before reaching an agreement on the
first section of the bill, as amended
by the House.
Relates to Surplus.
This section relates directly to the
proposed accumulation of a surplus
fund sufficient to pay the expenses
OF the District for one year in ad-
vance. The reason behind the pro-
posed investigation of the fiscal af-
fairs of the District is the claim by
the District government that there
is a balance of 35.0o0,0oo to the credit
Of the District in the federal Treas
ury
Today was the regular District
committee meeting. but the meeting
was postponed until tomorrow, owing
to the absence OF Chairman Focht
