Washington. d. c., April 14.-De-

by scores Of nationally known manu-
facturers, lawyers and business men

Sentiment among leaders OF busi-

ference would seem to Indicate that
a majority OF the business men OF
the country are opposed TO the raid.
Summarized in few vital points.
the outlook OF the conference dele
gates on the bonus raid Is as fol-
lows:
Cssh payments and service certin-
cates are not now needed by the ma
jority OF ex-service men, and the
time has passed when such benefits
would help them economically.
Already burdened with a delJt
twenty-three times greater than be-
for opening Of the great war, the
Government and future generations
should not be expected 10 pay Off ad-
ditional Government mortga ges

ness.
Additional taxes must be levied n
the bonus will become a law. Now
slowly forging out OF economic de-
preston, the nation cannot suffer
new handicaps in the path toward
business revival.
For the ex-service men who lost
their health as a result OF their pa

William Ritter. OF Columbus, Ohio,
who attended the conference on be-
half OF the American Hardwood

the bonus raid.
