(Cincinnati Enquirer.) | Before Congress settles on one of the numerous plans now before it to pay off the adjusted com- | |pensation certificates—if it finally settles on any plan at all—it should decide what is to be the purpose of the payment. Is it to ease the circum- stances of veterans in need, or is it meant to free a large sum of money 'in the hope of bettering business conditions? The several schemes infroduced by Brookhart, | 1Bm'k'(-' Caraway and other Senators to pay off the |full face value of the certificates, which would |cause an immediate expense to the Government of | v $3.500,000,000, are sources of fright to Sec- retary Mellon, the Administration and experienced financiers. The fact that such a payment would seriously embar the fiscal policy of the Gov- |ernment and undermine its credit was given little mxmdm,mun by |money frecly among voters. |a bond issue of such size would knock the props |from under Federal paper and probably demoralize !a market that has shown definite recovery strength |is a little serious, even to the Senate. It has also ‘been demonstrated pretty clearly that Government ‘buuu\\m;, of such a sum would harm rather than | help business. It would seem wise for Congress to discard the bonus as a sort of dynamite pill for business. It might have very serious repercussions. If, how- ever, payment is to be made to tide veterans over a period of need, that conceivablyy is a different | matter, and justifies the official stand of the American Legion on bonus payment. Perhaps a plan can be worked out that will be fair to those who |need part of the adjusted compensation now and also will encourage those not in immediate need |to wait for maturity to collect on their certificates. The Vandenberg plan to increase to 50 per cent the loan value of the certificates is being given serious study in Congress. If these loans could| |be made at a very low interest rate, so that charges would not eat up the principal value of the certifi- cates, as is the case under the present 6 per cent ate, the scheme seems to offer an acceptable way out for the Government and the veterans But the certainty that Spring is in the air, we thought joyously Sunday, as we rode to church on the street car.
