UNDERWOOD BILL
ON SHOALS READY
Southern Senators to Push
Measure-Norris May
Favor Own Draft.

When the Muscle Shoals issue is
called up on the Senate calendar
Wednesday. it probably will be re-
ferred back to the Senate agriculture
committee for reconsideration.
Administration leaders are known
TO favor such a course and are willing
10 concede to the demands of the
Southern Senators to fix a time limit
Tor the committee to report.
Since the adjournment of Congress,
the Muscle Shoals situation has be-
come complicated by the withdrawal
of Henry Ford's offer, the prepara-
ton of new proposals and revision of
some Of the other bids.
Senator Curtis. Republican leader,
said today it would be difficult prop
erly to consider the question on the
Senate floor and in view of the con-
fusion over the issue, he thought ii
should go back to the committee.
Underwood Has Bill.
Senator Underwood. Democrat. Ala
bama. who led the fight for the ac-
ceptance of Ford's bid, will introduce
his new bill, which has the support
oS the Southern Senators. This bill
provides for government ownership
and either government or private op-
Grafton of the property for the pro-
duction of nitrogen for fertilizer and
explosives.
1t is planned TO offer the Under
wood bill as substitute for the Nor
ris bill, which is now on the Senate
calendar. In many respects the two
bills are alike, but it is understood
that Senator Norris prefers his meas
IRE and will seek its passage.
An entirely new offer appeared to-
day from Howard Sutherland. eX-
Senator from West Virginia, who as
a representative Of Hambleton & Co.
bankers and financiers OF New York,
proposes to organize a $4,000. 900 cor
Doration to lease the property at a
yearly rental of per cent of the

crate under government supervision

The race is typical of the history
which civilization is making. Trans
portation began with a floating log,
improved to a followed canoe with
paddles, improved to a sailing ship,
then to a steamship, and, with inspir-
Ing climax, to an airShip.
There were skeptics prejudiced
against every forward step. The hol-
lowed log was sure to sink, the
steamship could never fight storm

could not compete with a horse. Can
an airship ever be more than a ma

NEW YORK, November 2e.-Two

were named Delta Alpha. and Eta

Universities, and the latter has chap

The conference was attended by
more than 300 delegates, representing
nearly 100000 fraternity members in
the United States.
At today's session exclusiveness in
fraternities was condemned. the
speakers urging that fraternities
should SO expand as to allow as many
college men as possible to join.
Bishop Robert l.. Harris of Mar
cuette Mich. speaking on this sub
ject, said the college, and especially
thc fraternity, must enroll its las
member in the great struggle be-
tween Righteousness and unrighteous-
ress. Dreams aud ambitions are
often more important than accom-
rlishments. he said.
We are conscious of the tremen-
"ous problems in carrying the burden

And we are not foolish enough to
think that a single election can stop

College Men Can Aid.
In this struggle, Bishop Harris
said, the college and especially the

BONUS ME- ASSURE
PASSES HOUSE
Sent On to Senate by 355 to
"a Vote; Latter's Ac-
ton in Doubt.

Washington.-The soldier bonus bill,
carrying twenty-year paid-up endoW-
ment insurance policies as the prin-
cipal feature, was passed by the house
by the overwhelming vote of $50 TO "a,
with four members voting present.
The majority was 50 more than the
two-thirds required under the suspen-
sion of the rules method adopted for
acting upon the bill. This factor as
sumes great Importance IN light of the
general expectation that President
Coolidge will veto the measure.
Can Override Veto.
The legislation now goes to the SEN
ate, where final action cannot be fore
cast with any degree of defniteness.
The claim of support by seventy sena-
tors was based on the original four
option plan approved by the veterans
organizations. This latter measure
twice has passed the house, and IN the
last congress also passed the senate,
only to meet its death through veto
by President Harding. The house over
rode the veto, but the senate sus-
tanned it.
Features of the Bill.
The bill, as it goes to the senate.
carries three features:
1. Cash payment for veterans who
have $50 or less due them.
2. Cash payments. divided into ten
quarterly installments, for dependents
Of veterans who have died since the
war.
3. Insurance policies for surviving
veterans who are entitled to more
than 500.
Cash payments are determined on
the basis of 81 day for home service
and $1.25 for overseas duty, with max
fmums of $500 for home service and
1928 for service abroad. The first sixty
days Of each veterans service is ex-
Guided, on the theory that that period
was taken care of in the $50 cash
bonus paid upon discharge. Where a
veteran did not have sufficient service
to entitle him to the maximum of 1925
if he served part of his time overseas,
he will be allowed credit for the full
time overseas at the rate of SIPS
day.
