CLASH AS
 BONUS TALKED
Reconciliation Is Effected And Cash-Insrance Feature
 Is Discussed

s WASHINGTON, March 8.-Soldier bonus legislation got away to flying start at the first executive meeting today of the House ways and means commit tee when it voted, 16 to 4, to frame bill, but a snag was struck when the form of payment was discussed.
 t Attention was centered on two plans
 paid up insurance policies and two fold scheme with options of full cash payments or insurance.
 After a heated discussion of the pro posals, marked by spirited verbal battle btween Representatives Tread way Massachusetts, and Crowther, New York, republicans, further consideration was postponed until tomorrow.
 Representative Treadway was one of those voting against any form of a bonus, and when MT. Crowther later charged the committee with dilatory tao tics which, he said, were aimed to de lay progress of the legislation. Mir. Treadway took issue. One word led to another and Representative Bacharach, republican, New Jersey, stepped between the two members when they started to- ward each other. A reconciliation was quickly effected.
 The three who opposed the bonus were Representatives Tilson, Connecti- cut, and Mills, New York, republican and Collier, democrat, Mississippi.
 Representative Bacharach advanced the paid up insurance scheme and was in- structed to prepare data on it. Several proponents of the full cash payment op- ton spoke for it, including members of both parties, and Chairman Green, who is opposed to such a scheme, admitted tonight it had gained considerable strength.

Investigation Show Source For State. ment On Chemicals In Body
 CANYON, Tex, March 6.-Reports that Dr. C. A. Pierle of the West Texas Normal college, recently estim- ated the worth of the chemicals in the human body at 9S cents and in- dicating his remarks were based on an analysis made by him were errone- ous. His statements were made in an address before one of the literary so- cieites of the normal and the chemical content of the human body he gave was from an old well known report, Dr. Pierle says. Dr. Pierle never made a chemical analysis of human body and did not state he had done so.
