‘JONUS TO COME UP RIGHT AFTER XMAS House, Ways and Means Com} mitize ‘to Consider Means of | Financing Measure. / WASHINGTON, Dec. 14. — The | House Ways and Means Committe | will take up the soldier bonus ques- | tion immediately after the Christmas secens. Chairman Fordney announced | to-day that the committee's primary | concern would be to determine how funds with which to pay a bonus can be raised. Hause membérship will be divided on this question. Among the pro- pesals now being put forward is either a manufacturers’ tax or a gen- eral business sales tax. It is also contended that the bonus should be linked up with settlements by for- eign nations of the debt owed the United. States, House leaders said to-day there was & growing demand for disposal of the bonus question at an early date. Mr. Fordney said he had informed Ameri- can Legion officials only recently that substantial progress would be mhde within ninety days toward enactment of such a measure, Be % JUST THE /HING FOR THE KIDDIF He Is butt wold wit wife epee efani % support i Q vig. 14 inches ‘tall ana ae och: from end en a, coat of betver eh a ap ie eo eR ane 5.00 and we rill mall yo. i repaid, ney re bn | If not satis!
