They accuse him of undisguised
capitalism and dollar despotism-"
To 20 along with this, the PAM
phlets cite record Of President Cool

20 Measure

WASHINGTON, May Is
The soldiers bonus bill was We
toed today by President Cool
idge. His veto of the soldier
bonus bill was forecast by word
from the White House Wednes-
day that President Coolidge was
preparing a message to congress
on the measure. The only oc-
.casion for a message regarding
the bill, it was said, then would
be to inform congress Of the
veto and the reasons for it.
There would be no such com
munication were the president
contemplating signing the bill.
The president has obtained
reports on the bill from the
treasury department end the
veterans bureau and the analy-
sis made in these reports will
furnish the material for the veto
message.
Never since the first message
to congress declared his opposi-
ton to a bonus has Coolidge
shown any indication that he
would recede from his position.
The house has enough votes
to pass the measure over a veto,
but it is doubtful if the senate
will do so.
