VET BLOC'S CRY
SPURS MOVE
FORREL|EF

"A program of aid to needy vet
erans was being developed by the
Administration today as demands
for cash payment of the $2,200,-
100000 soldiers bonus grew in the
House and revolt was threatened
against the veterans economy act.
The recruiting of $4,000 veter-
ans in the reforestation camps on
the order of President Roosevelt
was declared by Congressional
members of the veterans bloc"
to be only the beginning of the
program.
Specific consideration Of the
needs of veterans in the admins
tration of the half-billion dollar
Wagner relief bill and preferential
treatment in the development of
o vast public works program were
being considered.
Bonus Cry Grows
The Administration also was
considering the plea of House
delegation to devise means OF
paying the soldiers bonusror in
, creasing the loan value for vet
erans in dire circumstances.
With a petition signed by 26
members of the House lying on
the Speakers desk for discharge
of the Ways and Means Commit
tee from consideration of the
cash bonus bill, Democratic House
leaders have informed the PreSi-
dent there is possibility of the
House demanding payment.
The Administration emerged
victorious in the House late yes
: terday when Attempts were made
to wreck the $46O, 100000 veterans
reductions made in the Independ-
ent Offices bill, carrying out the
economy act voted at the begin
ming Of the session.
Revolt Averted
While the House added $8,-
900 900 to maintain regional vet
erans' offices, it refused to make
further additions. A final vote
was slated for today.
AS the measure approached
final passage, the Veterans Bu-
reau funds are cut $452 100000
for next year.
Representative Woodrum (D)
Of Virginia, in charge of the
bill, apparently averted a real
revolt in the House by appealing
to the members to give the Pres
1dent chance to liberalize the
economy act.
Chairman Doughton CD of
the House Ways and Means Com
mittee, after a conference at the
White House, indicated the bonus
veteran5 now in washington
would be denied a hearing on
the bill providing for cash pay
ment.
