SENATE EXPECTED 10 SUSTAIN VET0 35 Votes Upholding Presi- dent on Bonus Seen as Final Test Nears. (Continued Prom First Page.) e O that the effect of the bill on the coun- try will be great and beneficial.” Borah said he had been told that *up to a million ex-soldiers are on the dole today.” “If these veterans are held to their eontracts, it would be a rule applied to no one else by the Government,” the Idaho Senator added. McAdoo Defends Bill. Senator McAdoo, Democrat, of Cali- fornia, who was Secretary of the| Treasury in the Wilson administra- tion, also supported the bill in a| speech in which he insisted it was | not inflationary. He called atten- tion to the President’s attack on the bill on the ground it was class legis- Jation and designed to benefit a “minority.” The Californian said | Congress for a long time has been legislating for minorities. He men- | tioned the processing tax on cotton! as an example. When Senator McAdoo's 30 minutes were up, he asked unanimous co 1sent | to speak for 5 minutes longer, but | objection was raised by Senator Har- rison, Democrat, of Mississippi. Senator Walsh, Democrat, of Mas- gachusetts, was the first speaker to declare his intention of voting to sustain the veto. He maintained that one man is responsible for the finan- cial policy of the administration in its drive for recovery, and that man | 45 the President. | Whether many of the other Senators | gupporting the President will join in| the debate depends on the dt‘\'(‘l()p-: ments, according to Chairman Harri-| gon of the Finance Committee. If} speeches made by those favoring the | bill were such as to demand an answer. Harrison indicated administration | backers would take the floor. | In announcing receipt of the 1.000 messages by the White House, Stephen | Early of the presidential secretariat | said that one of the interesting things | about them was that many veterans | atated that the President’s speech changed their positions. He estimated about 75 veterans had | telegraphed they now were against the Patman bill, although they previously | had favored it. Galleries Filled Farly. As the Senate met at 10 am., two thours earlier than usual. so as to speed | a final vote, telegrams for the Patman | bill were received at the Capitol in large numbers. Telegraph company officials reported that Father Charles E. Coughlin's ap- peal in New York last night to flood the Senate with telegrams for the bill | was bearing fruit. | “The messages are coming in like| raindrops.” one official said. He re- fused to estimate the total | The debate was opened by Senator | Thomas, the Senate’s most active par- | ticipant in the fight for the Patman bill. It was Thomas who was largely instrumental yesterday in delaying the vote on the veto. Reminding his colleagues of what happened politically to a large number of Senators who voted against a bonus bill in 1932, the Oklahoman said they have “joined the list of unknown and forgotten men.” Thomas did not devote much time to answering detailed arguments in the President’s veto message, except in one or two instances. The Presi- dent’s point that immediate cash pay- ment would be to the advantage of able-bodied veterans at the expense of disabled ex-service men was chal- lenged by Thomas, who took the opposite view. | Cites Mortality Figures. | Thomas argued that 440,000 World War veterans have died since the armistice, and that, according to mortality tables, 916,000 more will have died before the certificates be- come due in 1945. i “Which class is not likely to be here in 19452” he inquired. Answering his own question, he then predicted the able-bodied veterans of today will still be here, whereas most of those who were wounded or gassed will not be. He reasoned, therefore, that waiting | until 1945 would be to the detriment | of the disabled men and to the ad-| vantage of the able-bodied. Turning to the political effect of the bonus issue, Thomas said that since 1932, 64 Senate seats have been voted on by the people and almost 50 per | cent of the Senators who voted against the bonus bill at that time have been | replaced in the two subsequent elec- tions. He said there were 23 of these senatorial seats that have changed gince that time. ! “Where is the President who threatened to veto the bill three years ago before it was passed?” Thomas | continued. Asked by Senator Long, Democrat, | of Louisiana, to whom he was refer- ring, Senator Thomas replied he had reference to former President Hoover, and to 23 former Senators who voted against the bonus in 1932. One of the arguments of Sen- ator Thomas in favor of immedi- ate cash payment under the Pat- man bill rather than in 1945 was that every dollar of the compensation | promised the veterans in the adjusted gervice certificate already has lost 40 | per cent of its value, measured in terms of gold. 3 Attacking the currency expansion features of the Patman bill, Senator | Dieterich said ne was in favor of pay- | ment of the bonus, but not by an| inflationary method. Questioned by | Long, Dietericn said he voted for the Patman bill when he was a member of the House in 1932, but contended —_—— SPECIAL NOTICES.

Thorough. sincere work that bill did not contain inflationary features. “I voted for the Vinson substitute in this body,” Dieterich continued. The Vinson proposal calls for financ- ing payment of the bonus by a bond issue rather than the printing of cur- réncy. “My position is that I am against paying the bonus in the kind of money the Senator from Louisiana and others would like to see issued.” Senator Long made a brief speech defending the bill. He declared it would not lead to uncontrolled infla- tion, and said the President had signed a measure authorizing banks to issue ¥money on obligations of the United States which had not matured. Denies Inflation Effect. Senator Thomas, Democrat, of Utah next took up the cudgels for the hlll.I He denied flatly that this measure | would lead to currency inflation, such as had occurred in Germany, China and other countries. The Utah Sen- ator said he was in Germany during the period of great inflation following the war and also had been in China when that country had its period of inflation. 3 P In his address supporting the bill Borah said the American soldier had turned the tide of war to victory in 1518. He pointed out that in 1924 Congress had, by an overwhelming vote, overridden a veto and passed the adjusted compensation law. “There were those,” he continued, “gmong them myself, who did not believe in adjusted compensation. I did not believe it would be possible to make such adjustment. It was ironical to suggest that the payment of $1.25 day to the soldiers for entering into he hell holes of Europe would make such an adjustment. I never brought myself to believe in the plan. “But Congress entered into a con- tract to pay the veterans and it must be paid. The only questions that arise are those of time and how the bonus shall be paid. “The President in his veto message made two contentions. The first was that payment was not due and the Government was not under obligation to pay now. Technically, that is true. But is time a controlling factor in that matter? I think that payment of this debt now is equitable. The governments that owe us war debts have disregarded their contracts be- cause of the exigencies of the present. The depression has required recon- sideration of all contracts and all agreements.” Disputes Inflation Point. It was at this point that the Idahoan declared that if the veterans are held to their contracts, it would be a rule applied to no one else by the Government. Borah then continued: “The controlling reason undeniably in the mind of the President and those who oppose this bill is the question of inflation—printing press money. Is there any inflation in this | proposal? We propose to issue some- thing more than $2,000,000,000 in Treasury notes. Back of them will be $8.500,000000 of gold in the Treasury and $1,250,000,000 in silver, and the honor and good faith of the United States Government. “This is the same security that is behind the bonds issued by the Gov- ernment and behind the money in your pockets. There is no difference between the money to be issued under this bill and the money already is- sued.” Refers to Quotation. Before concluding, Borah replied to | the reference Mr. Roosevelt made to | him in the veto message. The Pres dent had quoted the Idaho Senator as saying on one occasion that the soldiers could not be aided except as the country itself is rehabilitated and that the soldier cannot come back except as the people as a whole come back. Referring to this as a quotation “from a very humble authority,” | Borah said: | “That statement was made 13 years ago when I was opposed to the crea- tion of any bonus obligation at all.” He explained he has not changed his view in the least, and it is be- cause he belicves that helping the soldiers at this time by increasing the volume of currency will help the coun- try as a whole that he intends to vote for it. In this connection, he cited the financial history of the Civil War, but emphasized the difference between the interest-bearing bonds and the green- backs of that period. Senator Duffy, Democrat, of Wis- | consin, followed Borah and announced he will vote to override the veto. He declared there is no need for worry | over the claim that the method of paying the bonus will bring dire re- sults. He said it was not a pleasant duty to vote to override the President be- cause he has tried to support the administration whenever possible. He added, however, he had promised his constitutents in 1932 to support pay- ment of the bonus. Senator Steiwer, Republican, of Oregon, asserted the President had “unwittingly given support to the con- clusion” that the bouus would be divided 50-50 between those who served overseas and those kept at home. “Nothing eould be more erroneous than that,” he said. He based his contention on the fact those who served less than 110 days in this country were not involved in the present controversy because they had received $60 discharge clothing pay and $50 as small service bonus, or equal to 110 days' service in the United States. Vinson Bill Offered Again. Referring to the President’s state- ment that able veterans should be treated the same as any other class, Steiwer said, “It means the adoption of a policy accepted by the National Economy League and Wall Street and those who got rich out of the war.” Even before the Senate vote, Repre- sentative Fenerty, Republican, of Pennsylvania, reintroduced in the House the defeated Vinson bonus bill with an amendment providing for payment from the $4,000,000,000 works fund.

Most | of the bill's supporters agreed this made victory nearly impossible, but Senator McCarran, Democrat, of | Nevada stuck to his flat prediction that the veto would be overridden. Clark Sees Bill Lost. Senator Clark, Democrat, of Mis- souri, long a cash-bonus leader, was| so convinced of the defeat of the bill| that he was ready to offer a substitute immediately as a rider to the pending naval appropriation bill. Clark announced he would move to suspend the rules so a cash bonus, bill could be added to the appropria- | tion measure. This would require a| two-thirds’ vote. The Missourian hoped to pick up a few votes, however, by offering the President alternative plans for financ- ing the full and immediate payments. | He would permit the Chief Executive to choose among three methods—is- suing new morey, borrowing the cash or using work-relief funds. Other bonus Senators were doubt- ful whether the Clark plan could mus- ter the necessary votes. Sume of them, those more particularly interested in the money issue than the bonus ques- tion, were frankly hostile to the plan. They wanted to force the President to issue more money. | ‘Though it would require a two- thirds vote to add the Clark amend- ment to the Navy bill, it would take only a majority to attach it to other administration measures, such as the security program. Leaders of the cash bonus drive were ready to offer a measure as a rider to one of these bills if the at- tempt to “hitch-hike” a ride on the Navy bill failed. They said it might prove embar- rassing to the President to have to veto an N. R.

MONETARY GROUPS HAIL VETO SPEECH Conservatives and Silver- ites Find ‘Morsels of En- couragement in Message. By the Assoclated Press. ’ With silverites still determined to press a free-coinage program, con- gressional advocates of conflicting monetary schools today claimed to find morsels of encouragement in President Roosevelt’s bonus veto message. Conservatives warmly applauded waht they interpreted a san outright declaration against “printing press money,” while those favoring currency expansion, especially through the sil- ver route, contended the Chief Execu= tive’s statements held no menace to their programs. Studied too, and drawing & comment from Senator La Follette, Progressive, of Wisconsin, was Mr. Roosevelt's re- pudiation of the “ill-considered” con- tention taht spending “is the most et fective means of hastening recovery.” La Follette Gives Views. La Follette, one of those identified with the “pump-priming” theory of Federal outlays, said “one of the pri- mary causes of this economic crisis and one of the principal reasons it has been protracted is that the purchasing power of the Nation is not sufficient to buy the products of farm and factory.” “It seems obvious to me,” he added, “that obviously the payment of the bonus would provide additional pur- chasing power and help lift the ability of the people to buy to higher levels. Others read in the President’s as- sertion that spending “has not been predicated on the mere spending of money to hasten recovery, but on the sounder principle” of meeting specific emergencies, a departure from early administration policy. But they acknowledged Mr. Roosevelt could seek logically to justify future spending on the same basis. Free Silver Advocated. Senator Wheeler, advocate of free silver coinage on a 16-to-1 basis, said there was nothing in the message affecting either the present Treasury silver purchase program, or the legis- | lation he plans to push with renewed vigor. Another silverite, Senator N.cCar- that the program of his group was not involved because, he said, ‘ No in- flation and no printing press money is proposed.” He added: “There can be no inflation, when gold or silver is used as the back- ing of new currency. Nature limits the new currency to the amount of gold and silver already in existence or produced by the mines.” Senator Borah, Republican of Idaho. whose interest in currency ex- pansion has avowedly been greater than his interest in paying the bonus, agreed. He left no doubt that he and his colleagues would resume their | efforts for an increase of money in | circulation at the first opportunity. Conservatives Speak. From what usually is considered the | conservative side of the economic fence, Senators Vandenberg, Repub- lican, of Michigan; Hastings, Repub- lican, of Delaware, Austin, Repub- | lican, of Vermont, and others of | similar thought hailed the message as | “sound,” although they could not agree in every particular. Vanden- berg's comment was typical: “There are minor thugs to which | I dissent.” he said. “but in the main I think it was an able, invincible and unanswerable argument. I particular! welcome what 1 hope is & permanent rejecton of all hbspitality to the idea | of printing press money.” These statemeats were predicated on brief passages in the message in | which Mr. Roosevelt sought to refute arguments of proponents of the bill | that paying off the bonus in newly- issued Treasury notes would lend im- petus to the recovery drive.

Out of War. By the Assoclated Press. Virtually conceding defeat in their effort to block the naval building pro- gram, Senate munitions investigators today drew on President Roosevelt's bonus veto message to aid in their fight to take “profiteering” out of war and preparedness. Chairman Nye of the Munitions Committee hailed Mr. Roosevelt's re- marks against “unwarranted remunera- tion” for those who remain at home in war-time as enhancing the prospects for the committtee’s anti-war profits bill Proposes Amendments, Meanwhile, Ny¢ pursued his attack against the $460,000,000 naval appro- priation bill in an effort to write into it provisions for restricting profits to the yards which will build the 24 new ships it flnances. He also proposed amendments that would give the State Department authority to keep the Navy from maneuvering in troubled seas, an action prompted by evidences of Japanese irritation over the fleet maneuvers in the Pacific. Another amendment for which he | sought support would require Army | and Navy officers to obtain State De- partment approval for their public addresses. Backing up Nye was Senator Clark, Democrat, of Missouri, who prepared a speech against the allowance for new ships in the Navy bill. Yesterday, however, the Senate passed an amend- ment adding $11,690,000 to a like sum already In the bill, for starting the 24 new ships. This did not swell the total of the bill, since it was a reappor- tionment of funds already in the department. President’s Remarks, The President’s remarks yesterday on war “profiteering” were these: “I have much sympathy for the argument that some who remained at home in civilian employ enjoyed spe- cial privilege and unwarranted re- muneration. That is true—bitterly true—but a recurrence of that type | of war profiteering can and must | be prevented in any future war. “I invite the Congress and the vetergns with the great masses of me in progressive efforts to root a recurrence of such injustice out of | American life.” Nye expressed satisfaction, saying: “This should greatly aid in further- ing our war profits bill.” Nye told the Senate, in discussing the Navy bill, that it should enact MAY 23, 1935.

By the Assoclated Press. NEW YORK, May 23.—Joseph L. Steinmetz, young Brooklyn divinity student on trial for slaying his 17- year-old wife and Rev. Joseph Leon- ard, New Jersey Catholic priest, tes- tifled today he was drunk when he entered the priest's room in the Knights of Columbus Hotel and found them partially unclad. Continuing his testimony for the second day, before Judge Charles C. Nott, jr., Steinmetz said he and his wife, Ruth Armstrong Steinmetz, whom he married in Agua Caliente iast November, three weeks before | the slayings, had gone to a nearby restaurant with the priest and drank heavily. ‘They returned to the Steinmetz room and the priest produced another bottle of liquor, Steinmetz said. The divinity student testified the priest said to him: “You ought to lie down and get some sleep. Ruth is not through con- fession and I will take her down to my room.” Previously, Stelnmetz said his wife had “taken a walk” with the priest the night before and he had invited | her to make a confession. Twisting a handkerchief, which he dabbed frequently to his eyes, Stein- | metz said the priest and his wife left | the room. “I don't know how long I was there. My head was spinning around,” he said, “and then I remember they had left and wondered why they had been gone so long.” Defense Counsel Samuel Leibowitz led Steinmetz through the details of the tragic afternoon at the hotel. The youth said he went to the priest’s room. Before knocking he heard his wife say: “I am a married woman. You are not a young man any more.” ‘The priest, Steinmetz said, replied: “You cannot question the authority | of the church.” Steinmetz said he knocked and entered the room. “The priest,” he said, “ there with his clothes off. “You mean he had his suit off?” asked Leibowitz. ‘ “Yes.
