PENSION RATES
HO|STED, VETO
LOOMS AGAIN
Senate Writes In Provisions
Disapproved by President
Delays Adjournment Anew

Prospect of another veto Of
World War pension legislation by
President Hoover loomed today as
the Senate sent an amended Al
ministration bill to the House fer
approval.
Before passing the bill, the
Senate wrote into it two provi-
sions condemned in advance by
the President. One increased the
proposed rates to range from $40
to $50 a month, as compared to
the Presidents maximum rate OF
$40. The other admitted to the
pension lists all veterans disabled
by their own willfui- misconduct
during war service.
Controversy over the bill indcci
nitely postponed adjournment cf
Congress. Should the President
veto the latest bill and either
House or Senate sustain the veto,
then Congress would have to draft
a new measure, hoping to have it
meet Hoover'S approval.
$4,000, 900 Year Bill
AS passed by the Senate, the
new bill would allow liberal con-.
penSation for veterans actually 10.
jured in wartime "service and
would establish a pension system
for those injured in time of peace
or by their own misconduct dur
ing the war. The cost of the
measure was estimated as averag.
ing $3.50, 200. 900 annually for the
next five years.
The chief provisions would pay
$1O0 a month compensation to
totally permanently disabled vet.
Grams, injured in wartime ser.
vice. If the veteran lost both
eyes, the rate would be $3.50 a
month, and If he lost limb in
addition, the rate would be 5000
a month.
HOspitalizatiOn Allowed
If disabled in peace time or
by his own wilful misconduct
during the war, the veteran
would receive 10 to $50 month
In serious cases, such as blind
ness, or paralysis. the veteran
would be hoSpitalized in addition
to receiving a pension.
Other provisions included:
Payment of $40 a month pen.
sion to father or mother, $50 to
both, Of deceased veteran.
Payment Of $25 a month pen
sion to veterans who lost arm
or leg in active service, in addi-
ton to all other compensation.
Payment of $50 a month to
veterans with arrested tubercu-
losis, if they suffered active
tuberculosis prior to January /,
1925.
Fight on Roll Call
The Senate was the scene OF
tremendous confusion when the
final vote was taken, due to the
efforts Of Vice President Curtis
to jam the measure through
without a record roll call. A
dozen Senators shouted for a roll
call but Curtis ignored them and
declared the bill passed.
Finally, Senator George CD OF
Georgia, secured unanimous con
sent for a record roll call and
the Senate formally passed the
bill by a vote of Sc to II. Those
opposing it were Senator's Bing
ham, Borah, FeSS, Goldsborough
Hastings, Hebert. Metcalf. Moses
Sullivan, Vandenberg and Walcott
1t was apparent Administra
ton leaders expected a veto Of
the bill and wished to avoid the
roll call. AS it now stands. about
20 Administration Senators will
have to change sides or the
Senate will override a veto.

The Trend of Fashion
Sheer WOOLen FrOcks

It will soon be cool enough
to start wearing the new sheer
wooden frocks that promise to
be so popular. Women are
by the dozens buying them al.
ready. In fact, several stores
report that they can scarcely
keep them in stock.
It's no wonder that they are
so popular because they embody
not only every good fashion
point for fall, but they are also
exceedingly practical. Woolens
are always in good colors be.
cause their yarns dye so well,
and furthermore they seem par
ticuIarly suited to this falls

although it is warm for early
fall days, 1t isn't too warm un.
der a coat later. It is further
distinguished BY :. its zig-zag
closing with a touch of white
pique which may be easily re-
moved for laundering. The.
lines are fitted in a way that
win make the dress very be-
coming, and the waistline is
normal. This is a copy of
London Trades model which
means that it's from a house
well known Tor their superior
sports clothes.
The other trock is a Patou

very youthful looking. Again
