CONGRESS FACING MOVE FOR PENSION Benefits for Widows and Orphans of World War to Be Sought. BY the Associated Press. With the specter of a bonus fight absent for the first time in years, the new Congress appeared likely today to face another problem involving vet- erans—pensions for widows and or- phans of World War soldiers. Maneuvers to obtain broader pen- sion legislation for relatives of these veterans are looked for both from within Congress and from sources out- side. Pensions are provided now in cuen of death from causes traceable to war service. Some congressional sources, however, expect & strong movement to provide benefits regardless of the cause of death. Cost Estimates Not Available. Advocates argue that the latter type has been given widows and children of men who fought in other wars. Cost estimates are not yet available, Chairman Gasque of the House Pensions Committee said he is con- sidering introducing a “uniform pen- sion” bill. It would give the same pension treatment to widows and or- phans of those who fought in the ‘World, Spanish-American, Indian and Civil Wars. Several other Congressmen also were reported contemplating pension proposals. House Pension Committee attaches pointed to indorsement of pension legislation by conventions of several veterans’ organizations as indications that those groups would be working for such legislation. The Hint of Pension Move. Chairman Rankin, Democrat, of Mississippi, of the House Veterans Committee said nevertheless, he had ill eut | MOVE for pensions, although probably they would not be considered by his | committee. legislation affecting veterans came before the next Congress, it probably payments expire in the spring. “I think we are bound to do some- thing for them,” he added.

NEW BOND DENIED BURNS INMISTRIAL Remanded to Montgomery Jail in Absence of Assault Verdict. By & Staff Correspondent of The Star. ROCKVILLE, Md. December 9.— John Henry Burns 35 Washington merchant today was held without bond in Montgomery County Jail after a Circuit Court jury yesterday noon had failed to reach a verdict on charges against him of criminally us- saulting & Washington girl near Con- gressional County Club the night of October 2. The jury it was learned stood 7 to § for acquittal after 16 hours of de- liberation when it reported to Judge Charles Woodward. The judge de- clared a mistrial. Burns had been free under $10,000 bond pending his trial by & special agreement under which he faced trial and waived ex- tradition. He was remanded to custody of the sheriff after the mistrial and then was refused readmission to bail by Judge Woodward. The petition for bail may be renewed Friday, when Judge Arthur Willard returns to Rock- ville. Burns is expected to be tried again at the March term of Circuit Court. The jury, tired and haggard after all-night deliberations, reported at noon that it was unable to agree. Burns, surrounded by his wife and relatives, greeted the verdict with moderate satisfaction. e W. and M. Alumni to Meet.
