“It is not feasible,” said Mr. Ferris and the soldier will grow heartj sick over the fact that relief is being i granted to a few and denied to the j many. I am not leaning on my own ; judgment in making these suggested | amendments. They are already firm- ; ly entrenched in the minds of leaders ; in the House of Representatives and i in the minds of the soldiers as well. | “Secretary Lane has worked in sea- j ) son Jind out to get some legislation I j that would enable the country to do ; i for the soldiers of this country what! | other countries are doing for th,eirs, and as I converse with soldiers on the ' j subject and study the plan more and j more I feel perfectly sure the Mon- , i dell bill M ill first not be acceptable to [ the soldier, will not ns it stands be ! acceptable to the House, and will if j 1 enacted benefit but few r.nd leave the ! j very great majority without any re- J ; lief, without any help or recognition j

"I want to make it perfectly clear , that the Mondell bill is not without i virtue, and doubtless will be of great value to the soldiers in certain sections of the country. But my fear is that it will not take care of a sufficiently large number of soldiers to ! really make it a soldiers’ bill at all, I and also it i.s not sufficiently wide in 1 scope to do justice to all the soldiers
