Tt was reported that the Re- .\ publican leaders hoped to work out “} some plan by which the bonus meas- ure could be expedited without delay- ing seriously the Tariff Bill Senator Simmons, ranking Demo- cratic member, announced on behalf of the three Democrats present that they voted to repert out the McCum- ber bill only to get action promptly and not because they favored the measure. The Democratic leader ex- pressed thé belief that the McCumber bill would be of little benefit. to the former service men und said the m)- Nority reserved the right to offer a substitute bill in the Senate or amend- ment to the McCumber plan. The,committee before approving the © plan ‘liminated the forfeiture pro- vision us contained in the House measure, under which veterans failing to pay loans to banks or to the Gov- ernment would have forfeited their adjusted service certificates. In such cases the Secretary of the Treasury ~‘would restore the certificates to the * veteran in whose name it was issued at any time prior to its maturity upon receipt from him of the amount paid * by the Government to the bank plus interest at the rate of 4% per cent, compounded annually Under another amendment - Proved by the committees veterans . could make application for adjusted service compensation at any time arter the passage of the law. The House measure would haye limited the time to July 1, 1928. The Senate bill as reported would » provide for the payment of cash to _ Veterans whose adjusted service credit, would not exceed $50, as was pro- Posed in the House measure, and Would give to other veterans one of these four options: Adjusted service certificates having a face value of 8.016 times the _ amount of the adjusted service credit computed at the rate of $1 a day for domestic service and $1.25 for foreign service with provisions for loans by banks prior to Jan. 1, 1926, and by the Govefnment thereafter. These certificates would mature in twenty years from the date of issue or sooner * upon the death of the veteran. _ Farm or home aid in an amount = equal to the following percentages of a veteran's adjusted service credit: 100 per cent. if payment were made Guring 1928; 105 per cent. if payment # made in 1924; 110 per cent. in ; 120 per cent. in 1926; 130 per cent. in 1927, and 140 per cent. in 1928 or thereafter. Under the House | bill the amount’ paid upon option ~ would have been the total of the ad- Justed seevice credit increased by 26. per cent. Vocational training aid at the rate of $1.75 a day, but the total not to exceed 140 per cent. of the amount of the adjusted service credit of the veteran. - Land settlement—Upon the opening of public or Indian lands to entry veterans would be given preference in their settlement for a period of not less than sixty days and ‘would be’ al- lowed by the Government for pay- ment on such lands or improvements thereto an amount equal to the ad- Justed service credit increased, by 25 - Per cent.\ This provision is in lieu = of the redlamation project proposed = im the House bill. . ; - influence. to Europe and Back on Aquitani NTHONY Wick WoRLe LORKA Anthony Lurka, twelve years uld, crept aboard the Aquitania, be- fore that ship left New York, in the belief that his mother was on board going to Poland.

TREATY SAYS CHURCH (Continued from First Page.) forced the Provisional Government to enter this compact, which ts fun- damentally opposed to the treaty. “They declared the conditions in Southern Ireland were degenerating so rapidly that they had not the power to hold a freely contested elec- tion; that sporadic conflicts would have resulted in many parts; that the ballot boxes would have been burned and persons and candidates intimi- dated or prevented from taking part in the ction, and that no coherent expression of the national will would have resulted. “If that is true,” continued Mr. Churehill, “it is a very terrible re- flection upon the Irish people and their capacity to use the democratic institutions to which they have so long and so loftily proclaimed their devotion. It js also a reflection upon the Government, which while urging us’ continuously to withdraw our forces, in order to make the whole of the Irish people see that we were acting in strict good faith, he been able in the whole of tI months that has elapsed, with all the resources at their disposal, to organize an efficient and adequate police force capable of majntaining the treaty position. “The second réason advanced was that the progress of disorder, lawless- ness and social degeneration had been so rapid and extensive in the twenty- six counties’ since the departure of the British troops and the disbanding of the Royal Irish Constabulary that the Provisional Goyernment could not possibly guarantee the ordinary se- curities of life and property if these securitles were challenged by an ac- tive and violent Republican minority.
