+. VET SAVINGS

Changes in veterans legislation
designed to save many millions of
dollars annually were urged be-
fore a joint Congressional COM
mittee today by Brig. Gen. Frank
T. Hines, Federal administrator
Of veterans affairs.
Revision of the clause permit
ting retroactive awards in COM
penSation and pension cases would
save SIS 900. 900 a year, Hines de-
clared. New restrictions on the
payment of war risk insurance
claims would safeguard against
fraud and save $6,000,00O an.
nually, he said.
Hines recommended that vet
erans who entered the service
subsequent to the armistice be
penSioned rather than awarded
World War compensation. This
change would save $3,649, 900, he
asserted.
One of his MAJOR proposals was
"that no disability allowance un-
der the World War veterans act
shall be payable to any veteran
not permanently disabled'to a de-
gree Of so per cent; this would
affect a saving of approximately
$51 $4,000 the first year and
would remove from the disability
allowance rolls 356,555 persons"

PARIS READY.
FOR WAR Of
REPR|SALS
Herriot Ally Cites Methods
of Meeting "Stupidity"
of U. S. on Debts

PARIS, Dec. 16 (I.N.S.).
Any attempt by the United
States to wreak reprisals on
France for her war debt de-
fault will be met by sharp
retaliation, with American
residents of this country the
chief target, Georges Bouesse,
lie a ding Radical Socialist
deputy, told international
News Service today.
The deputy's warning was
voiced when news reached the
Chamber of Deputies that United
States Senator Kenneth McKellar
Of Tennessee had introduced a
bill proposing the levy of q 5000
passport visa fee to nations in de-
fault, with the object Of cutting
off Frances lucrative American
tourist trade.
Plan Called Stupid
BouesSe said:
81 never heard of such stupid.
ity. But If this bin passes, /
am prepared to present a bin in
the French Chamber to tax all
Americans now living in France
$1,000 for their identity cards.
There are estimated to be
more than $4,000 Americans
now living here. France now
charges only 81 for identity
cards, but a tax Of $1,000 a
head would bring in nearly $780,
100000, with which France could
pay her $19,OOO,OOO debt to
America and still be ahead"
Bouesse was one Of the few
deputies who supported former
Premier Edouard Herriot in his
attempts to obtain the chambers
approval of conditional payment.
He said:
''I voted for payment, but 1
now regret that I did So"
While the chamber was receiv-
ing news of McKellar's bill and
other hints of reprisals with min
gled anger and anxiety, Frances
political future remained uncer-
tain.

Measure Killed by Ia to 9;
Dead for This Session,
Says Rep. Collier

The House Ways and Means
Committee, by a vote Of IA to 9,
today refused to report the bill
Of Representative Lea (D.) of
California legalizing lig ht
wines. Yesterday it reported a
30 per cent beer bill.
Members of the "wine bloc"
blamed beer interests for their
defeat.
Fight to Continue s..
Backers Of light wines immedi-
ately announced they would con-
tinue their fight both in the
House and Senate.
"A meeting OF the California
delegation will be called to decide
whether the wine bloc" will now
open fight against beer. Repre-
sentative Lea CD of California
indicated he would oppose retail.
atory measures and said he would
support beer.
Announcement Of the commit
tees decision was made by Rep
resentatiVe Rainey CD of ILL
nois, majority leader.
The committee battled over the
wine question for an hour behind
closed doors before the vote was
taken.
Several Bills Offered
The committee has before 1t
several wine bills, but it's action
was taken upon a measure intro
duced late yesterday by Repre-
sentative Lea, in behalf Of the
''Wine Bloc"
When the committee yesterday
voted to report out the 80 per
cent beer bill, it struck out a sec
ton in the bill legalizing light
wines. The committee, however,
agreed to consider a separate
wine bill.
Representative Collier CD Of
Mississippi, chairman, said:
"The majority of the commit
tee opposed the wines bill be-
cause they believed the aICO-
hOlic content of wines would be
intoxicating in fact, and, there
fore in violation of the Eight
eenth amendment.
'"The vote ends the wine
question, so far as this commit
tee is concerned, during the
present session."
Alcohol Runs High
Collier said testimony before
the committee indicated the alco.
holic percentage Of light wines
would run as high as IA per cent.
Backers Of wine contended
that the beverage would not be
intoxicating because wine is con-
Sumed with meals.
The wine bloc" made a little
progress overnight in its endeavor
to convert the committee. The
vote in committee yesterday to re-
move wine from the beer bill was
II to z.
Some Of the known vets op-
posed the wine provision.
Explaining his attitude, Repre-
sentative Lewis CD of Maryland,
a committee member, said that
he would not vote for wines in
violation of the Constitution.

NEWARK, N. j., Dec. 16
(LN.S.). - The public life of
Robert Elliott Burns, escaped
Georgia convict and literary
zebra, was seriously threatened
today. ~
While Burns in Jail was giving
what may fbe his last interviews
to the press, Warden Harold
Hardy OF the Georgia prison
camp, from which Burns escaped
two years ago, was on his way
here with extradition papers to
reclaim the wanderer.
Meanwhile, the man who ad-
vertised through book and movie
that he was a fugitive from "a
chain gang announced he would
fight 10 the last against going back
to the chain gang, where he said
certain death by torture" awaited
him.

He declared:
''I'm no criminal. / once

A literary as well as a legal
controversy loomed upon the ar.
rival of the Georgia warden.
Warden Hardy read 81 Am a
Fugitive From a Chain Gang" /"
authored by his missing prisoner.
He said:
'The book is all bull and a
yard wide. There are no chains
used in my prison camp" .... -.
He also scoffed at Burns de-
|ecription of tortures and whip
pings. He said:
use of the whip in Georgia
prison camps was made illegal
years ago."
"Give Me Death First"
Burns insisted today that every
word in his book, from which a
movie was made, was true. He
|said:
"And If they ever get me back
