PROPOSES BONUS
FOR VETS HEIRS
Amendment Would Extend
Benefits to Relatives of
Dead Soldiers.

Relatives OF veterans who have
died since the armistice was signed.
will be able to benefit from SOL
diers' bonus legislation if a provi-
sion under discussion among men,
bers of the House Ways and Means
Committee is approved.
1t is proposed that the bill be
amended to give relatives advan-
tage of the adjusted service certif-
icate provision of the bill. The
certificates would go to a widow or
to such other close relative as may
survive. The amount would be
computed on the basis of 81 per day
for home service or s1.25 for over
seas service. plus % per cent.
Republican members of the Wavs
and Means Committee will meet to-
morrow to act on one or two points
remaining under discussion. Rem
resentative Fordney. chairman of
the committee. Will introduce the
bill in the House following this
meeting and it then will be referred
back to the committee in the per-
fected form. The full WAYS and
Means Committee. including Demo-
cratic members. will meet on Tues
day to report the bill to the House
Indications are that there will be
no further changes of CONSEQUENCE
in the bill in the House. The hill
probably will be called up under
special rule and without opportun-
ity for amendment. Under this pro-
cedure the bill will be put througb
without serious difficulty.

DISTRIBUTORS GET
HIGHEST PROFIT ON
MILK, IS CHARGE
Baltimore Pays Less Than
District, Witness at
Hearing Says.

Every reduction in the price OF
milk has followed an equal reduc-
tion in the price, paid the. farmer"
said DR.. William c. Fowler, Dis
trict health officer, in discussing the
milk situation after having attend
ed the nearing before a Congress
slonal investigation committee.
he called attention to the fact
that While farmers were getting
less because of a decreased cost of
production. and while the consumer
was being paid less with which to
puy milk, the decreased cost of dis
tributing milk had not been indi-
Gated in any price cuts.
The distributors must he assum-
ing that 1t costs as much to de-
liver milk now as during war
times" he added. DIR. Fowler re-
fused to say whether there was
profiteering.
1t Is expected the committee will
conclude its hearing tomorrow. Yes
terday witnesses testified Of the
cost of production. The committee
believes 1t can arrive at the profits
made on milk by subtracting from
the selling price. the cost of produc-
tioH anu lht cost OF distribution.
That Washington milk consumers
pay 4 to cents more per gallon
for milk than do Baltimore consum-
ers. was the substance of the
charge made by Dallas Berry, pres
ident of the Maryland and Virginia
MIX Producers Association. when
testifying before the Congressional
committee. Hn further added that
in spite of this discrepancy the To-
cal milk distributors pay the pro-
ducers but half a cent a gallon
more than do the Baltimore distrib-
utors
The testimony as to the cost of
production as. given by a number Of
Montgomery County farmers
showed that II cost the farmers
from "a to 81 cents a gallon To pro-
duce the milk that they were SELL
ing fol "a cents a gallon and less.
This same milk is being sold to
the Washington consumers at from
Sc to "a cents a gallon.
