Some Bonus Facts One of the subjects that is bound to receive tention both in the halls of con- 16 and it will be delivered t Register complaints considerable a I B . c gress and in the public prints from this time on is the bonus or adjusted compensation for the soldiers of the World War. ‘ There is much confusion and misunderstand- |) ing of the whole subject and a few facts respect- |; ing it may be of advantage in reaching a better |( general understanding. mildest The soldiers’ bonus is a hard nut to crack. It of the party is a troublesome problem for many members of |c d is destined to cause many sleep {y congress, c less nights before the session is over. The bil! vetoed by the late President Harding, |“ y same as f Keptember 19, 1922, was pracpically the the one to be pre , over in this congress. Its main provisions are: |t Each veteran will have the right to avail him-|_ self of any one (but only one) of the following ! plans: t 1—To receive adjusted service pay—$1.25 for a y of overseas service and $1 a day for y of home service, but the amount of credit must not exceed $500 for home service and $625 for over-seas service. This service must have been performed between April 5, 1917 and July t 1, 191). Over-seas service means service on shore in : Europe or commissioned officers above captain in the army, | lieutenant in the navy and a few others. 2.—To receive an “adjusted service certificate,” which means his adjusted service credit plus 25 per cent, plus interest thereon for 20 years at) 435 per cent per annum, compounded annually. The veteran may name a beneficiary, and may} change it. The amount of the face value shall be} paid to the veteran in 20 years or to the bene-| ticiary, or the veteran’s estate. A loan may be made on the certitficate at any national bank or trust company or at any post- office of the first or second class, at not in ex- cess by 2 per cent of the discount rate charged by the Federal Reserve banks. —To receive vocational training aid. The di- rector of the Veterans’ bureau shall pay to the veteran $1.75 for each day of his attendance on i i |F a course of vocational training, but the total|chosen to lead a presidential conflict. The con- payment must not exceed 140 per cent of the ad- justed service. 4.—To receive farm or home aid. The secretary of the interior shall pay to the veteran, in one payment or in installments, an amount equal to his adjusted service credit plus 25 per cent. Such payments shall be only to enable the veteran to make improvements on a home or purchase or make payments on a home or farm, or to pay off an indebtedness, In his veto message the late President Hard- ing said: “The cost is not definitely known. The treasury estimates figure the direct cost at ap-|! $145,000,000 for 1923; $225,000,000 ; 104,000,000 for 1925; $312,000,000 for making a total of $785,000,000 for the first four years, and a total cost in excess of $4,000,- 000,000. President Harding criticised the certificate plan, the insurance plan and the unwise use of the credit of the nation. In his recent message to congress, President Coolidge said: “I do not favor the granting of a bonus.” Probably if the bonus bill passes both houses of congress (as it may) President Coolidge will veto it in much the same language the late Pres- ident Harding used, plus the Mellon. argument for reduction of income taxes some $300,000,000. The following states have soldiers’ bonuses: Thi 000,000; Kansas § ; Massachusetts, 0,000,000; Minnesota, 00,0000; New Hamp-| i Missouri, 00,000; Wisconsin, $2,000,000. In addition, Colorado, Montana and Pennsyl- yania have submitted soldiers’ bonus bills carry- ing a total of $ 0,000; a grand total of $427,- 500,000 in 22 states. This promises to be one of the big fights of the session. It is not a party question; both parties are divided.

In that po- sition, and with the broken ends separated by 60 feet, the water be- came frozen. Using this 50 feet of ice as a conductor, talking was resumed with points as far away as Buel, Idaho. Mr. Danielson states that with this means of conducting, there was little or no difference in the volume of the human voice on either end, and that the’ only way it vas noticeable was because of the noise” on the wire. Telephone patrons might yet be talking ‘through ice” were it not for|’ the O. S. L. maintainance man who works that particular section of the railroad. He discovered the broken wire, and with the intention of fix: ing {t, he pulled one end out of the ice but was unable to get the other end out. As soon as one end was pulled free from the fce, it became impossible to use the line, and trouble shooters were soon out on the job.

These glowing treasures from the Valley of the Sines point straight back 3000 years to a golden age of uxury. Yet all the wealth of good King “Tut” could not have bought him a toothbrush, rented a telephone for a day, or purchased a safety razor. After all, this is really the golden age. We have more to be happy with—keener comforts for our choosing. An infinite variety of things have been developed to smooth the course of life to a degree unknown and unbelievable centuries ago. Nowadays, new comforts and conveniences slip into our lives almost without our realizing it. We are apt to be rather matter of fact about it all. And advertising is the instrument that makes most of these things possible. Advertising that has made it simple to make and distribute innumerable products at reasonable prices, has played a leading part in making our lives so eminently easy to live, Read over the advertisements and try to think what the things you see there would have meant to old King “Tut.” Then you will realize what a service and what a conven- ience advertising is to you. 5 is You are not getting the most out of life if you overlook the advertising
