UR pattern for today has about
it that sign of Spring that
will make every one who sews
perk up with interest. Note
particularly the smart. simple
lines, designed especially for the fabric
shown In the sketch.
simultaneously with the first ap-
pearance of the crocuS, fashionable
women emerge in printed frock,
chosen not for one, but for many rea-
sons. 1t must be appropriate in both
material and color to wear now under
q coat, later on with fur, and in
early Summer fit in with completely
new set of seasonal accessories.
What wardrobe Is complete without
one or two distinctive frocks of print?
No other type Of dress gives such
service. Revived by pressing now
and then, they can be worn day IN
and day out with only an occasional
trip to the dry cleaner.
Our frock in today's sketch has lines
that are becoming to all figures. The
beltless skirt, the Interestingly out
sleeves and the high-in- back col
lar express the style trends Of the
latest openings.
In the scanning OF the frock in the
back we see reflected an emphatic ten
dency toward designing that is we'll

are visible at any angle from which

CONGRESS SURE
TO PASS BONUS
IN SOME FORM
Patman to Offer Bill for Full
Payment on First Day of
Session.
This is the third of several dispatches
dealing with the Congressional program.
BY LYLE C. WILSON
United Press STAFF Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Dec. 20. - New
Dealers cling to a slim hope that in
the Seventy third Congress they can
head off legislation to pay war vet
Grams all or part of their adjusted
service compensation.
The cost Of outright cash bonus
payment would be $4,000, 1000.
Rep. Wright Patnan Cd, Tex will
offer a bill on the first day of the
session to pay that sum. His bill
would authorize currency initiation
print ng press money-to raise the
money.
Approximately so other bonus
bills are in preparation.
President Roosevelt is on record
against cashing adjusted service
certificates so long as the Treasury
budget is unbalanced. He took that
position in the 1882 presidential
campaign, and last autumn stated
it again, although in different form
Addressing a Virginia veterans
said World War veterans were bet
ter off on the average than any
other group of citizens. Therefore,
he explained, it would be Admins
tration policy to give other groups
first call on Treasury relief.
The American Legion convention
in Miami, nevertheless, recon-
mended that the compensation GER
tificates be cashed Immediately. In
dividual candidates for House and
Senate were put on record by war
veterans throughout the United
States on the bonus issue.
Whether veterans have obtained
sufficient support to overcome a veto
is not yet evident. But the history
of Civil War and World War COM
pensatiOn legislation has been that
former soldiers usually get most of
what they go after. Before accept
ing defeat, the Administration will
try to obtain a compromise at some
cost short of $2,200,000,OO0
AS a last resort, Mr.. Roosevelt
probably would demand that Con-
gress enact taxes to defray bonus
costs. In addition to currency infa-
ton, it has been suggested by va
rious interested groups that bonus
costs be betrayed by sales tax, by
using profits from coinage of silver
and by using profits realized by
Government seizure of gold
In 1881, Congress authorized vet
Grams to borrow up to so per cent

of the face value Of their cornpen-
sation certificates.
These certificates will nature in
1945. The interest on these loans,
if unpaid. would consume the re-
naming so per cent principal by
maturity date.
Preliminary Congressional discus
sion has developed several compro-
mise proposals, none Of which is
satisfactory to the veterans. 1t has
been suggested that Government
waive interest on the loans obtained
in 1881; that certificates be Cashed
for those on relief rolls and any
others who can demonstrate their
need; that veterans be given now
the cash value of certificates as Of
1885.
This latter proposal is comparable
to a transaction in which an inSur-
ance policy is cashed 10 years before
maturity.
The Legion has not sponsored any
payment method, merely recon-
mending that payment be made
some way.

DAIRY INQUIRY.
To Be MADE BY
TRADE BOARD

Deciding it would be more ad-
visable to allow the Federal Trade
Commission to investigate the ma
tional milk industry, the Senate
Audit and Control Committee to-
day turned thumbs down on the
McCarran resolution for a Sen
ate inquiry into that industry.
Senator Pat McCarran CD Of
Nevada, a member of the Senate
District Committee, introduced
the resolution on the basis Of
testimony adduced in the Dis
trict Committees probe of the
local milk industry last Summer.
Cost Put at $4,000
The Nevadan's resolution was
reported favorably by the Senate
Committee on Agriculture, but
since it called for an expenditure
of $4,000 from the Senate con-
tingent fund, it was referred to
the Audit and Control group for
APPROVAL.
Meanwhile, another proposal
was introduced in the Senate,
calling upon the Federal Trade
Commission to conduct the in
vestigation. Yesterday, the Senate
Agriculture Committee approved
the latter measure.
Audit Group Approves
The Senate Audit and Control
Committee met today and de-
cided the Federal Trade Commits
sion could best make the investi-
cation, pointing out that the
Secretary of Agriculture in a let
ter has recommended the Federal
Trade Commission as a better
agency to make the probe than a
Senate committee.
Senator McCarran's resolution
therefore probably will die in the
committee, while sponsors of the
proposal for the probe by the
Federal Trade Commission will
press for favorable action.

NEW DEAL DUE
ON COMMERCE,
\ !. SAYS PEEK
BY international News Service

BY International News Service
A new approach must be made
TO the problem of international
commerce If Americas fast-slip'
ping foreign trade is to be checked
on its downward path, George N.
Peek reported to President Roose,
welt today in his capacity as spe-
cial adviser to the President on
foreign trade.
Mr.. Peek supplied exhaustive
figures covering a 38-year period,
from 1895 to 1893. to show that
~the trend in our international
trade has been cumulatively dis
advantageous to U.S."
These figures showed that while
merely in goods alone the United
states has sold the world $22,-
645 5000, 900 more than purchased, |,
actually the United States has not
received this money because the
expenditures Of American tourists,
Immigrant remittances, shipping
services, and American capital
flowing into foreign investments.
have offset this, so that instead
Of amounting to a profit, 1t repre-
sents merely a debt-which has
not been paid. That is, the world
owes that much.
President Roosevelt's comment
on the figures was that people
who thought the United States
has been making lot of money,
are mistaken.
Mr.. Peek said:
81 have become convinced
that a change is necessary in
our approach to foreign trade
activities and their relation to
our domestic problems.
1--WE must develop complete
balance sheets between this
country and each Of the coun-
tries with which we are now
dealing or with which we pro-
pose to deal.'
