WASHINGTON. April Ex-senator
McCumber, chairman Of the Finance
Committee of the Senate after an in
formal conference Of Republican mem
bcrs OF the committee to-day, forecast
q report on the bonus bill within
week
A modified form of the House ccrtih-
cate plan was laid before the Finance
Committee Republicans to-day by Sen
ator McCumbcr, who is strongly urging
Its acceptance. He has much backing
in the committee and is hopeful OF a
favorable report upon IT. Senator
Smoot. who continues TO insist on his
plan of paid-up insurance. opposed the
McCumber plan. The meeting arrived
at no decision. IT was determined to
obtain Treasury expert figures as to
the exact cost of every feature OF the
McCumber plan before taking final ac-
tlon on the bill.
Cost of Two Plans
No official figures arc yet given on
the cost Of the McCumbcr plan, but un-
officially it was SAID it will be $500,
100000, as against S2,900,000,O00 calcu-
lated as the cost Of the Smoot plan
Under the plan laid before the com
mlttee, the maximum cash payment
would be $50. Borrowing on certifi-
Gates from the banks would be per
mitted and provision would be ma de
banks. Senator McCumber aims, how
ever, to keep the borrowings on the
certificates down to the lowest figure
and said. after the meeting, that he
would urge the veterans 10 take ccr-
tifcates and keep them until maturity
in every case possible
Senator McCumbcr, though not ready
to make a detailed statement rcga I'd
ing the bill az he would modify il.
said:
"The certificate plan is the chief
feature Of the bill which we are con
siderng Borrowing on the certjh
Gates will be permitted. That seems
to be an indispensable feature Of any
bill. 1t is the purpose to avoid any
additional taxation and to make the
actual outlay by the government in the
next several years, in the period when
there will have to be extensive re-
funding operations, as small as pos
sjble. | am hopeful that the payments
Of interest on the foreign debt Will
largely take care OF the expenditures
under the measure"
Fixes Yearly Cost at 100 Million
Senator McCumbcr said it was the
purpose 10 keep the annual outlay for
several years to come down TO a maxi
mum Of S100,OOO,O00.
Senator Smoot's plan for paid-up in
surance would not permit borrowing
on policies. This is not satisfactory
TO the veterans and Senator McCumber
is therefore opposed to it. lie takes
the view that in some cases it. would
be necessary for veterans 20 borrow
and he will insist that this privilege
be permitted.

sey. is still insisting that the oppo-

Bartl1ou Calls
On POincare to
RevampPolicy
Continued from page one

TO feel that France must now choose
between two policies-stay out of the
pact. and thereby not only isolate her
self but also antagonize other nations
by trying to enforce the Versailles
Treaty without Allied help, or Join in
the aggression agreement and be
assured or the support Of both the
Big and Little Ententes IN the en-
forcement of existing treaties.
OF the two alternatives Barthou and
the other members of the Paris group
are convinced that the first would be
disastrous, whereas the second would
offer sensible solution Of the present
difficulties at the conference. The
French spokesman has not vet been
able to convince Poincare Of this by
messages were exchanged day.
It was brought out that the Allied
powers have even offered tentatively
not only to Join with France in q com
munication to Germany demanding
complete payment Of the war debt in
stalImort that falls due Nav 3 and ac
ceptance of the demands OF the Repa
ration Commission. but also lay down
further possible penalties such as
heavy tax on German foreign commerce
to be collected in all countries outside
Of Germany.
If France promised not to invad"
Germany the Berlin delegation would
sign the aggression pact without
reservations, spokesman fol that
group SAID to-day.
The chief credit for such a solution
as this would devove upon Benes, who
sent strong eommunications TO the
French and British delegations last
- #
that had been accepted by the bulk of
the nations represented at this gather
ing.
The French delegation kept nop!ng
all day that Poincare would change his
mind and come to Genoa.
Talking TO friends to-day. Barthou
said he thought Lloyd Georges request
that Poincare come to Genoa was both
lust and reasonable
"Before any guarantee pact that IN
cludes Russia and Germany is posi-
ble,' Barthou is reported to have snld.
Germany must know where France
stands regarding the Ruhr. Without
non-ag aggression. the proposed pact
means nothing. 1t is equally important
that France know what she is able to
expect from Germany in the way Of
rcTaratiou.'
8arthou SAID he did rot think it
wa practicable for Poincare to tly TO
meet representatives OF the other
powers at some other city nearer to
Paris, as has been suggested. One
place mentioned is Mentone. Just on
tlis side Of the Franco-Italian border.
Outs de Of French circles it is sug-
gcsted that Lloyd George has man
oeuyrcd Poincare into position
where he either must accept the non
aggression past or accept responsi-
hulty for the possible failure of the
Genoa meeting. On oil sides approval
is expressed Of Lloyd Georges speech
last night N which. answering Poin-
cares threatening address at Bar-lc,
Due last Monday. the British Premier
warned Of the dangers Of war if the
conference failed. The Lloyd George
speech may have played part IN
bringing the Paris delegates here to
the conclusion that the right step for
France TO take is into the non -aggrcs-
sion pact
