To FINANCE
DISABLED IS
IN HOUSE
Congressman Bloom Explains
His Measure Making 81 500
Loans to Veterans.
BY Cosmopolitan News Service.

Every time you see a crippled
veteran sitting on the cold pave
ment selling pencils, think Of Con-
gresham Sol Blooms bill for dis.
abled veterans,
IF every man and woman in the
country would do that, the bill
would go through Congress like wild
lire" Mr.. Bloom said today.
1ndorsed by veterans all over the
country, the bill provides for a
revolving fund Of SIS, 900 900, to be
loaned to disabled veterans at 4
per cent for the purpose Of estab.
fishing them in business. Each
disabled veteran would be entitled to
loan not to exceed $500, payable
within period of ten years.
Would Make Merchants.
The official title Of the bill is the
Veterans Rehabilitation Employ
ment and Loan Act" Congressman
Bloom, Democrat, Of New York.
thinks it could be more fittingly
described as the Veterans Mer-
chant BILL"
1T would make merchants of all
our disabled veterans" he said.
AS things now stand, the Govern
ment provides vocational training
Tor our disabled veterans, but after
the training is completed no pro.
visions is made for the veterans con.
tinuing their chosen vocation, in
many instances this training is a
total loss, as the veterans are lin.
able to- find work compatible with
their training.
Why not start them out in bust.
ness on a small scale? Give them
a chance to regain some of the
losses they suffered as a result of
the war. Give them a chance to
make good with the training pro.
vided by the Government"
Not Any New Theory.
Congressman Bloom explained
that his bill embodied no new
theory, impracticable of application
Outside Of the actual expenses
of administration, 1 am confident
that the Government will not lose
dollar in the venture. II these
boys gave their health for their
country, then the country should
not get rid Of them aS soon as they
have completed their training, but
should establish them in industry
and make good citizens of them"

AUTO TAX
introduces Bill in House De-
nouncing Levy As Unjust
Burden on People.
By Cosmopolitan News Service.

Dy OVSsaAOpOhAtAu MOVIE nctNAOS'
War taxes on automobiles and
auto parts are an unjust ~burden
upon men in the moderate income
| class, for they constitute the
great majority of the $4,000. 900
automobile owners In the United
States, Congressman Robert II.
Clancy of Detroit, declared today.
War taxes on automobiles
must be killed" Mr.. Clancy SAID.
THAT tax is an unfair levy upon
an absolute necessity for u large
body of American citizens. The
automobile is no longer Il luxury
and should not be taxed as such.
II certainly is not in the same
class Of taxable articles as
diamonds, art works, silks and
other Injuries.
II expect to get favorable action
on my bill to repeal those taxes.
as Democratic support for this
measure.
Some 100000 Americans ere
paying these unnecessary war
taxes, if we take the fair basis of
one automobile to a family and
assign four members to family
These auto taxes are found IN the
revenue act Of 1921, which taxes
such luxuries as candy, hunting
outfits, cameras, etc. Taxes have
been killed on musical Instruments,
sporting goods. chewing gum, per-
fumes, fur and toilet articles, etc.
But the automobile truck which
is an auxiliary of railroads and
relieves the railroads of the ex-
pensive short haul, is still taxed,
although the railroad war excise
tax was killed shortly after the
war. Automobile costs would be
reduced per cent IL the war
excise taxes upon automobiles are
removed"
