These men, Gary, Morgan, Lamont,

capitalists, are typical Coolidge back

closed that John Davis, democratic
candidate, had been forced to spend
S5,000.00 of his own money before

the socialist party is acting un-'
der the orders of LaFollette.
There are many reasons to believe
that LaFollette is finding the support
Of the socialist party very doubtful
asset, and that he is very willing to
hasten its elimination from his ranks
in return for something he considers
much more substantial and desirable,
i. e., the support Of Smith and the
progressive" democrats.
1.-THE support of the socialist party
has laid LaFollette open to the viru.
lent attacks of 'Hell-and-Maria' Dawes
without the compromising assurance
of support from any but small and
dwindling body of so-called socialist
voters. Fighting Bob has apparently
become convinced Of the weakness
and ineffectiveness of the socialist
party and has therefore been revising
his tactics recently with view of Sc.
curing Smiths support.
Socialists Agree to Anything.
"Some weeks ago, the New York
Trades and Labor Council Endorsed
LaFollette and Wheeler with the ex-
pressed understanding that this did
not by any means imply an indorse-
ment of any Of the local Conference
for Progressive Political Action can
didates. This stand was approved by
the LaFollette and socialist delegates
in the council, thus leaving the door
open for an Endorsement of Smith by
that body
"Since then both the Central Trades
and Labor Council and the New York
State Federation, supported strongly
by Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, have
Endorsed Smith for governor, without
word of protest or disapproval from
the LaFollette or socialist delegates at
these gatherings.
''The increasing dissatisfaction of
the LaFollette forces with its social
list hangers-on, has been very plainly
shown on number of recent occa.
sions. At LaFollette meeting in the
Town Hall, last week, Frank P. Walsh
the chairman, openly praised the rec
ord Of Smith, while Norman Thomas,
the socialist candidate for governor
sat on the platform. Wheeler sound
ed the praises of Smith in his speech
at Schenectady.
I'm his speech, at Madison Square
Garden, LaFollette carefully avoided
all mention Of the socialist party.
However, he praised very highly the
Smith housing program. The fact
seems to be that the socialist party
has been told to behave if it would
remain in respectable LaFollette
company. In line with this conclu-
sion is the fact that Thomas himself
has publicly approved of many things
for which Smith stands, altho he diff
fered very amiably on a few minor
points II the socialist party has
abandoned the Thomas campaign in
favor Of Smith, it is throwing its ma
chinery, or what is left of it, behind
a man whom 1t has consistently criti.

tag Of any kind.

VETO LOOMS NOW FOR
REV. NUE: MEASURE.
BONUS BILL is CAUSE
Leaders Unwilling to Forecast
Vote On Tax Reduction Be
cause of Presidents Stand

WASHINGTON, May 2O.-(By
Associated Press.)-The vote on the
revenue bill now pending in con-
ference could not be forecast at the
capitol today in view of previous
indications by administration spokes
men that enactment of the bonus
bill which was passed Monday,
would necessitate disapproval of the
tax reduction provided in the meas
ure by President Coolidge.
White House officials discussing
the action of congress in overrid-
ing the presidents veto of the DO
nus bill emphasized that the Mellon
tax reduction program Was predi-
Gated upon the assumption that
there would be no bonus legisla-
ton, While they refused to say so
directly, they left the impression
that Congress having decided on a
bonus, hope of material tax reduc-
ton must be abandoned.
Secretary Mellon was not prepar-
ed to discuss the effect of the bonus
upon the Treasury's financial pro
gram, but he said that "sooner or
later there must must be provision
for payment and it can be met
only by new taxes"
The Treasury Secretary confer
red with President Coolidge after
the Senate acted but neither he nor
White House officers would dis
close the subject matter Of the
conference. Mr.. Mellon also decid-
ed on suggestions by some Treasury
officials that the Treasury could not
do other wise than recommend 4
veto of the pending tax legislation
as a result of the passage of the
bonus.
Mr.. Mellon said he could make
no intelligent statement concern
ing the whole situation until he had
received from his assistants infor-
nation now in preparation concern
ing the effect bonus payments viii
have on future fiscal operations Of

but no arrests have been made yet.
