HIGH BILLS IRK
WATER USERS
Rates Up Instead of Down,
Patrons Complain.

The public service commission
"one faucet compromise on Indian
apolis Water Company rates today
brought forth a barrage of protest
from residents of the 1900 block
South East street.
When consumers in the area ex-
amined the monthly bills, deliv-
cred late Thursday, they found
that, but for one exception, the new
$1.08 rate had resulted in in
creaSeS.
The commission limited the re-
duced rate to consumers using a
500 cubic feet minimum.
Residents said they apparently
have come under the category of
the commissions $4,000 who would
pay" slightly higher rates and not
the 10000 users who would get re-
auctions"
In one instance a patrons bill
had scared from the old $3.50 rate
to $500. In another, where the
woman claimed she uses cistern wa
ter every chance I get" the bill
jumped to $190.
The original protest against the
water rates was born among mem
berS of the South Side Civic League,
many of whom live in the South
East street vicinity.

Veterans Parade to Capitol
Call for Payment of Bonus
Twelfth District Legion
Council Votes to Ask
Compensation.

Resolution demanding full pay
ment of the soldiers bonus, or can
collation. of interest on the so per
cent bonus loans already made, was
adopted by the Twelfth district
Legion council Thursday night.
The bonus resolution brought on
heated argument among members
of the council, but the measure
finally was passed., II to 13, with
the cancellation of interest alterna-
tive clause.
Asserting they had not been in
structed by their posts on the
bonus controversy, delegates from
Indianapolis post No. 4, Big Eagle
post, Memorial post, and Federal
post refused to vote on the resolu-
ton.
Favored by Garfield Post
Garfield post Thursday night also
adopted a resolution favoring full
payment of the veterans bonus.
The battle over ousting of John
r. Ecker, Linton, as state service
officer, was disposed of by the coun-
Gil with decision to turn over all
correspondence in the controversy
to State Commander Ralph F.
Gates, Columbia City.
Several friends of Ecker, ousted
several weeks ago on charges of al
legged inefficiency, were present at
the meeting. Ecker was succeeded
by Harry Hall, Marion.
The council adopted another
resolution condemning Legion
members who have involved the
organization in political contro-
versy and partisan disputes.
Hit at Political Activity
The resolution struck at the hold
ing of county and district meetings
at which there have been disguised
activities in support of and promot-
ing the interest of certain political
party candidates and partisan dis
puteS."
Plans for the district membership
roundup week, starting April Is.
were discussed, the district goal be-
ing set at 5000 members. Up to the
present 1888 members have been
enrolled in the district.

BLOW AT DEPRESSION
BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS
scrlpps- Howard Foreign Editor

NEW YORK, April "A billion
dollars worth OF perfectly good,
highly profitable orders are wait
ing in Russia to be filled by the
products of American labor, Thomas
D. Campbell, weighty wheat grower
of Montana, said today in a tele-
gram to the Scripps Howard news
papers.
But the orders will not be wait
ing long, lie indicated, if Americans
do not want them. or for any other
reason can not fill them. German,
British and other European con-
Germs, armed with attractive prices
and credit terms, are hot on the
trail.
Campbell is the worlds biggest
producer of wheat. He knows Rus
STA we'll. He has visited that com
try number of times. He knows
Josef Stain, Kalenin and other
Soviet officials probably as well as
any other foreigner. In Washing
ton, on Capitol Hill, and in his
home state. Campbell is known as
a conservative man of affairs.
Best Market in World
Russia" he stated, "offers the
best market in the world today for
American manufactured goods.
IF we take this business now, we
will have it for the next fifty years.
At the same time, it will do more
to relieve our industrial depression
than any other factor, except re-
turn of agricultural prosperity so
that our farmers can buy.
I'VE have financed practically all
of Germany's business with Rus
STA. (America'S sales to Russia
have dropped per cent in the last
two years and Germanys has in
creased 81 per cent?
Europe will take this business if
we do not and there is very little
other foreign business today to be
had.
No Loss of Money
"There has not been any loss in
money on Soviet business anywhere
in fifteen years. All acceptances
have been paid promptly and in
full.
Compare this with the billions
of foreign bonds which have been
sold in the United States during the
same time.
Russia wants to do business with
us. 1 easily could get orders for a
billion dollars worth of American
products with competitive credit
terms.
II certainly think we should take
the business. 1t is better than I'M
employment and the dole"
Campbell showed the Russians
how to grow wheat. And people
wondered. Why in the world do
you teach the Russians to grow
wheat, they asked him, to sell in
competition with yourself?
Helps Raise Living Standard
His answer was simple. It will
take many years, he said, for the
Russians to reach the point where
they can grow enough to feed them
selves. Now they eat black bread
mixture of all sorts of things, in
Guiding potatoes-b cause they
haven't enough wheat.
To help Russians achieve high
er standard of living, he said, is to
help them consume more of the
worlds products, and that helps
world prosperity.
Universal progress helps us all, 8"
he said.

tariff as compelling ''the world to
build tariff fences so high that
world trade is diminishing to a
vanishing point. He called for a
tariff policy based upon eco
nomic common sense rather than
politics, hot air and pull"
n
FOREIGN countries, he said,
II have no money with which to
pay for American goods Of which
this country needs less than 30
per cent Of its own capacity pro-
duction.
The only way they can pay us
is in their manufactured goods or
raw materials, but this foolish
tariff makes that impossible" he
asserted.

Congress Forces MaSSed to
Face Bitter Battle
Next Week.
By United Press


WASHINGTON, April 8.-Vete-
rams bonus leaders today carried
their plea for bonus legislation tc
the foot Of the Capitol steps. A
parade of a thousand legionnaires
and members of the Veterans OF
Foreign Wars preceded presentation
to assembled senators and congress
men of a petition said to contain
more than 100000 signatures de-
handing payment of the bonus.
The veterans, many Of them
wearing the faded olive drab uni
forms in which they fought over
seas, were accompanied by three
bands and scores of colro bearers
carrying national, legion and War
Veterans flags.
They we're met on the steps OF
the Capitol by a group of congress-
men headed by Senator McNary
(Rep., Ore) and Majority Leader
Henry j. Rainey of the house, who
officially received the petition.
Prepare for Congress
AS. the veterans marched, forces
were being marshaled here for the
second big struggle of the present
session of congress, the approaching
contest over the Patman bill to pay
in full the outstanding adjusted
compensation certificates of World
war veterans.
Hearings on the measure, spon-
sored by Representative Patman
Dem, Tex, a comparatively young
member of congress, will begin be-
fore the house ways and means
committee Monday. 1t is expected
they will be as detailed and as spir-
tied as the tax fight.
The bill provides for issuance of
about $2,000,000,000 in currency to
be backed by 40 per cent of gold
from the surplus now held in the
treasury, and to be used in payment
of the certificates.
Billions Involved
There now are 100000 certifi-
Gates in the hands of like number
of veterans. They range in value
from $126 to $3.50 and average
81 900 each. Against these, total
of $1,300,000,0O0 already has been
borrowed from the government at
Az per cent interest. 1t will re-
quire $2,2O0,OOO,OO0 to pay off the
remainder.
The Patman bill would pay of
the certificates in full-that is, pay
to their holders now the amount
which otherwise would come tt
them on death or ia 1875.
In support Of the bill, it pro-
ponentS argue:
That 100000 veterans holding Ger
tif1cates now are unemployed anc
need money.
That the government, by paying
off the certificates now, would save
administrative expenses from the
present to 1915.
:. Called Initiation Measure
That it would put 100000 of adj
ditiona money in circulation-not by
paying it to banks, railroads or the
hands of the wealthy, but by dis
tributing it into every nook anc
corner of America"
That issuance of this add tiona
currency would strengthen COM
modify prices, thus aiding the COM
modify producer, quicken trade anc
assist in restoration of prosperity.
Opponens of the measure attack
the plan Of issuing additional cur
rency as being violent and dan
gerous measure of imitation.

TXTASHINGTON, April S.-The

has prepared a tabulation showing
how money paid out by the gov

Patman'S proposal to pay off vet
Grams adjusted compensation
certificates at face value would

The tabulation shows how much

by veterans residing in each
county. The following table shows
how much typical counties would
receive according to this calcula-
ton:
