. becoming so popular tiat the once BONUS URGED BY V. PW. CHIEFTAIN ‘Van Zandt Says Congress Will Pass Bill at This Session; Leaves for Minot Belief that legislation to pay the soldiers’ bonus in cash will be enacted at the next session of con was expressed in speeches here Tuesday by James E. Van Zandt, national com- mander of the Veterans of Foreign ‘Wats. Van Zandt, who left for Minot ‘Wednesday morning after a compli- mentary breakfast given by local war veterans at the capitol building, spoke four times Tuesday, first before the Kiwanis club, again at a dinner in the evening, at the city auditorium and over the radio. Tn each of his addresses, Van Zandt made special reference to the bonus, conjending that it should be paid in cash and without delay. Indications are, he said, that such legislation will pass both houses of congress and there is strong indication , that ° sufficient votes could be mustered to pass it over the president’s veto if the executive takes that stand. Raps Government Spending Intimating that many expenditures of the federal government are waste- ful or designed to provide political jobs, Van Zandt asserted that payment of the adjusted compensation certifi- cates issued to veterans in 1925 could be accomplished without creating any new jobs and would be a big stimulus to business. No politicians would get their hands on the money, he said, as it would go direct to the veterans. They, in turn, would put it into cir- culation by making new purchases or investments or paying their bills. If the bonus is paid, he said, about $9,000,000 will come into North Dakota Fat once and about $260,000 into Bur- Jeigh county. a Apparently anticipating that Presi- dent Roosevelt would veto a bonus payment bill, Van Zandt said the President is placed in a difficult posi- tion since he is forced to listen to “Wall Street,” and the so-called money power is opposed to cashing the bonus. In his address at the city auditorium, Van Zandt outlined the seven-point program of the Veterans of Fore! Wars, calling for creation of a pen- sion board and establishment of a uniform pension for disabled veterans of ‘all wars; providing for adequate pensions for widows and orphans ang the parents of dead veterans; asking elimination of Communist aliens and other anti-American forces from the United States and demanding a strong national defense. On the latter ques- tion, he said, the position of the Vv. F. W. is that all requests by the secretaries of the war and the navy should be granted by congress that the country may be adequately pro- 7 Would Ban War Profit * Favoring # plan to-“take the profit out of war,” he said the V. F. W. would place the entire nation on a military basis, for example, making the president of a big railroad a colonel, an industrial leader a captain and the president of a bank a “ sergeant.” In the event this is done, he there will be no more war. At the close of his address in the auditorium, Van Zandt administered the V. F. W. pledge to 138 candidates for membership in the local post, many of them members of the veterans C. C. C. camp at Mandan. In introducing W. F. Burnett of Fargo, state commander of the V.F.W., P. G.. Harrington, state’ vice com- mander, outlined the difference be- tween that organization and other veterans groups. This lies in the re- quirement that eligible veterans must. have served in time of war on foreign soil or in hostile waters. Van Zandt emphasized this difference in his ad- dress, pointing out, however, that veterans who served abroad are not attempting to reduce or impair any ‘benefits which may be granted by the government to men who served only in this country. State Commander Burnett intro- duced Van Zandt both at the dinner meeting in the evening and at the auditorium. He is a veteran of the Spanish-American war. Accompanying the V. F. W. chief to Minot Wednesday were Burnett, H. W. Rosenthal, chef de gare of the 40 and 8, honor society of the American Legion, and Dr. L. W. McLain, com- mander of the North Dakota veterans home at Lisbon. Striking Reporters Establish Own Paper Newark, N.
