PENSION BILL
IS VETOED BY
PRES. HARDING

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-The Bur.
sum bill providing for an increase In
the pensions of Civil and Mexican war
veterans was vetoed today by Presi.
dent Harding. In his veto message the
president declared the increase in
governmental expenditures involved
would mount to "heedlessness' and
objected also to the bills loose pro-
vision for pe%ns!onlng widows"
While house attaches said the Bur
sum bill vas the first general pension
measure V e to be returned to con.
gress with the disapproval of a presi-
dent. Its blanket provisions apply to
all surviving participants of the Mexi-
can and Civil wars, their widows and
nurses who saw active service.
Introduced by Senator Bursum, re-
publican. New Mexico. the measure
was passed by 9th senate and house
by overwhelming majorities. Leaders
in congress were unwilling to predict
today, however, whether it would be
possible to override the presidents
veto.
The bill would increase pensions of
Mexican and Civil war veterans to
S72 a month and widows of veterans
would receive $50 a month with Sc
added for each dependent. 1t pro.
v!des $50 a month to Civil wal nurses
and a graduated scale of pension up
to 1925 n month for various degrees
of disability suffered in service during
all wars. Indian war veterans would
receive $50 and their widows $50.
Senator Bursum said late today
h a he expected to- make n motion
in the senate, possibly tomorrow, to
pass the bill over the presidents veto.

McGovern e Stranger
This development came soon after
the identity of the murdered man
was definitely established accord

OF Indiana, apparently a stranger in
California. The man had been seek
ing employment in San Joaquin
county and was stopping at a hotel:
Kels admitted he had planned the
murder with exceeding GOODNESS for
three weeks and told how he drove
with his victim to the ranch uncon-
cernedly discussing with him the
crops, weather and the contour of
the country.
Reports from the home of Mrs.
KelS at Lodi, where she is await
ing the coming of child, were that
her condition was critical and it
might be that she would never live
to be told that her husband had
confessed to murder and that the
man she buried three weeks ago as
Alex Kels was a stranger known
only as "Mac.
Kels was brought here from Eur

On the trip south from Eureka
Kels met his II year old niece and
his sister, Mrs. VIM. Meuting,
aboard the train. The girl threw
her arms around him.
''Oh, Uncle Alex, tell me you did
not do it, she cried.
Kels did not answer.
Mrs. Meuting declared she believ-

Assistant District Attorney Wood
ward in charge of the ease said that
he did not intend to ask either the
extreme penalty or ciemency for
Kels when the time for sentence
comes.
He pointed out, however that it is
often the custom to sentence a man
to life Imprisonment When he pleads
guilty to murder rather than inflict
capital punishment.
Should Kels be hanged Mrs. Kels
would receive the $l05,000 insurance
carried in her favor. 1t was that
she might collect this insurance

proposed to become illegally dead
