BONUS At TOP
Of CONGRESS-
PROGRAM
BY WILLIAM X. HUTCHINSON

BY WILLIAM X. HUTCHINSON
international News Service
An important legislative pro.
gram was being compiled today
for the Seventy-fourth Congress,
to be elected Tuesday to convene
in January.
Immediate payment of the
$2.200,000,000 balance on World
War adjusted service certificates
to 2,500,000 veterans topped the
program which covered a wide
range of subjects. The tentative
program included consideration
Of:
l. A universal draft law, con.
scripting capital, industry and
manpower in time of war, as ad-
vocated by the American Legion
and others organizations.
Tighter Alien Law
2. A tighter immigration law,
probably including a provision
for registration of aliens until
they become citizens.
3. Anti-C Communists legislation,
designed to halt the unrestricted
circulation of Communist propa-
ganda, much evidenced in last
summers labor disorder.
4. New tax legislation, even II
the bill merely extends for
another year the special excise
taxes, which expire June 80.
S. Amendments to the Agricul-
tural Adjustment Act. ellmlnat-
ing some abuses and determining
the Administrations program
toward cotton growers for the
next year.
6. A new public works program,
to be financed over long period,
for low-cost housing and SELF
liquidating projects.
7. New and heavy relief ap,
preparations, to meet direct re-
lief burden for another year.
8. The World court and st.
Lawrence waterway treaties by
the Senate.
Legion Pushes Bonus
The American Legion and other
veterans organizations will launch
the drive for the cash bonus and
universal draft law. The Admin
istration will oppose the first but
its efforts will not prevent
vote, though a presidential veto
may block its enactment.
Members of Congress frc
States where there were labor dis
orders last summer. will sponsor
the anti-alien and anti-CommuniSt
legislation. The Legion recon-
mended a law barring Communist
literature from the mails. The
alien registration legislation will
gain support from publicity in
the case of Richard Bruno Haupt-
mann, accused of numbering the
Lindbergh baby, who entered the
country illegally.
The tax bill is necessary at least
to retain the Federal excise taxes
which expire June 30. Relief
appropriations are just as neces-
Sary to the Administration.
The outlook is for busy ses,
sion of the new Congress.

Unemployment has been lessened al

out the summer should be cut rea-
sonably long and the fat should be
left on. Where a good quality Of
sliced bacon is desired the ribs should
be removed and the pieces given
smooth trim. Whether used fresh,
frozen, cured or canned, loins should
be cut rather short and most of the
back fat removed. Loin roasts carry
ing a smooth, even covering of fat
will cook more quickly and satisfac-
torily than those that have been
trimmed SO as to expose the lean.
Most of the fat should be removed
from loins that are to be boned and
canned. If large quantities of lard
are needed all the cuts should be
trimmed rather closely.
Center splitting the hog carcasses

bone makes it possible to use the
loin in any of several ways. If the
backbone lis chopped out, the remain
der of the lOin muscle is usually
available only for sausage. If the
backbone must be used whole and
several hogs are being butchered. it
may be advisable to chop out the
backbone from one or two hogs, but
the majority should be cut so as to
produce the largest amount of curing
meat Obtainable.

likely become oversalted in cure and

farewell
The stroke means more than tongue

The world seems quite another place
Without the smile of a daughters

A loving heart that knew no guile,
Deep trust in God that all was right,
Her joy to make some other bright:
