PRESIDENT VETOES
BONUS BILL
Stating that the Bill Would BE an
Undue Drain on the Treasury Cool
idge Returns Bonus Bill Without
Approval.

The soldier bonus bill was vetoed
last Thursday by President Coolidge.
On the heels Of his disapproval of
the Bursum bill because he felt that
1t would be strain on the treasury,
the president sent back to the capi-
tol for the same reason the compen-
sation measure which would give free
life insurance policies to World War
veterans
Advocates of the bill Immediately
announced that an attempt would be
made to pass 1T over his veto; on its
original passage it received over the
two-thirds majority needed for re-
..aasaae.
The veto message based on esti-
mates of probable expenditures prov
idod by the budget bureau, was adj
creased to the house where the bill
originated and where the first test Of
strength must come in the effort to
override the presidents veto.
The president In his veto message
estimated that payment Of the bon
us would commit the nation to an
average annual expenditure of $ll4,-
100000 for the next twenty years.
AT the end Of the 20 year period.
he said, the government would be
faced with the necessity Of selling $2,-
b00,000,000 In bonds. q major finan-
cial undertaking which he argued
might jeopardize the value of federal
securities then outstanding.
He added that regardless Of party
affiliations, the public Is clamoring
for tax relief, and that the govern
ment has not money to bestow on any
particular class. Veterans would be
better off, he said, if relieved Of the
high taxes which the bonus legisla-
ton would make necessary, tax re-
duction, he mentioned In particular
would be great help to agricultural
interests. %
Bill Becomes Law "a
On Saturday the house repassed the
bonus bill over the presidents veto
with So votes to spare over the
two-thirds majority required and the
bill became a law on Monday when
the senate passed the measure with
30 republicans, n democrats and 2
farmer-labor voted for 1t. The re-
passage Of the bill ended fight be-
tween congress and two successive
presidents.
II Ia estimated that 3,308,283 veter-
ans win be entitled to the insurance
policies provided by the soldiers bon
us bill, while 389,583 will be paid
$50 or less In cash. The bill also pro-
vides for payments to dependents of
deceased veterans Of the amount Of
adjusted service compensation to
which they should be entitled.

Ms HIGHWAY.
Cause So Much Damage Dur
ing Muddy Period that State
Finds Regulation Necessary
Believe Condition Can Be
Remedied by Cooperation
Rather than by Arrests

Traffic is to be regulated on the
North and South highway during the
months of muddy roads, in order to
prevent heavy trucks from cutting
deep rms in the highway. w. j. Hall,
commissioner of public works, at Boise,
has issued instructions to Harry Vim
cent, maintenance foreman on the high
way, that he pay particular attention
to loads travelling on the highway. Mr..
Vincent is asked to call attention OF
drivers of large loads to damage they
are doing the highway, and it is be-
lieved when the matter is brought to
the drivers attention, the condition
will be remedied without further ac-
ton.
Where traffic is heavy, maintenance
costs on gravel and crushed rock roads
are necessarily high under best of
conditions and particular care must
be exercised in handling traffic dur
ing periods when surface and sub
grades are soft.
In eastern Washington, all vehicles
weighing more than two tons, includ-
ing their loads, have been forbidden
to operate on unpaved highways be-
tween January 1 and April 10, when
the roads are soft. If the roads are
compact or frozen no note is taken
of the violation. Several arrests have
been made in this connection.
Mr.. Hall says that he does not ex-
pect it will be necessary to take the
drastic action that has been ordered in
Washington.
