SpNGRESS PUTS Soldier bonus jgsUP TO PARTIES Haiders of Both Sides Agree to Wait Action by National Conventions. NEW TAXATION FEARED WASHINGTON. April 7.—The question of a bonus for men who served in the military and naval forces daring the world war will be settled at the national political conventions. Leaders of both parties in congress today had agreed upon such a plan, and there will be no definite action on bonus legislation until after the conventions. Republican I/eadcr Mondell and Repre sentative Kitchin. a democratic leader, are both known to favor such a course. There is little likelihood of any cash bonus legislation during the present session of congress until the national conventions direct it, leaders admit. In the bonus problem, members of con cress are facing one of the most delicate political questions they have to solve. RIVAL SIDES OF PROBLEM. of the bonus legislation might incur the disfavor of the “soldier vote.’’ If a bonus is granted, it has been agreed that the funds for the bonus must be raised by direct taxatiou and additional taxation at this time would be generally displeasing to the nation. Five subcommittees of the house com mittee are working on the question of bonus legislation, but the action of these committees is controlled by a main sub committee, composed of Chairman Fordney of Michigan, Representatives Longworth of Ohio and Green of lowa, republicans. and Kitchin of North Caro ltna and Rainey of Illinois, democrats A careful canvass of members of con gress shows that the preponderance of opinion is against a cash bonus at this time, although few members arc willing to make statements for publication to this effect There is an apparent desire to do something for the service men. bat the effect of new taxation is feared more than the opposition of the "soldier vote. - ' SOUTH OPPOSED TO C %SH BOM S.

that a cash bonus would cause a great slackening of the effort of labor, which would be Injurious to the business Interests of the south. This pressure Is so great that the southern delegation in congress would be almost unanimously against a bonus now. A bonus in the form of land grants would solve the problem for congress, and congress is willing to legislate for such a bonus, but there is no strong demand for a laud grant bonus from the former service men.
