THE DEPENDENT PARENT'S PENSION BILLA It was stated at the White House today that the President was so pressed for time on legisia- tion requiring his attention that he was obliged to excuse himself to all callers without exception. ‘The announcement was interpreted as meaning ‘that he was busily engaged in preparing a vetg of the dependent parent pension bill to be sent to the Senate this afternoon, as the constitutional Uinitation for action on the bill expires to-day. It 4s understood that the President is of the opinion ‘hat the provisions of the bill will confer benetits on those Who are not entitled to receive them by virtue of actual inliitary service during the war. For instance, under tne call for troops of Decer- ber 19, 1864, which went into effect Janhary 1, 1863, 202,500 men enlisted. Over 35,000 never re reed to dy command, while the others reported trom Une to time until after the close of hostilities, In fact but few of the enlisted men under that call heard a gun fire after enlistment, or even reached the front at all. The President, it 1s said, is not willing to approve a bill which includes in its beneiits bounty grabbers and bounty jumpers, who merely enlisted, many of Whom Were hever heard.
