NATION NEEDS MORE MONEY, VETERANS SAY Payment of Bonus Would • Help Farmers, Business Men, They Argue. Thi I, Ihe fifth article hr flenstor Timer Thom** of Oklahoma, Dnor of thf bill In the senate for immediate varment of the soldier*' bona*. The Time* print* this series In an effort to fire publicity to the pro-bonus ride of thi* i.sue eon a I to that *|yen atalntt it, and to throw a* mnrh lltht on the central •itoatlon as possible. BY ELMER THOMAS When the hearings on the sorailed bonus bill were opened, Congressmen Patman and Rankin fixed definitely the limitations to govern In presentation of arguments favoring the proposal. The principle was laid down that although the eterans want the certificates paid, and although they need the money, yet unless it can be shown that the full cash payment will aid the unemployed, the farmers, the merchants, the banks and business generally, the claim and demand of the veterans should fail. Supporters of the measure claim that we are suffering from a shortage of actual money in circulation; that this bill will correct this shortage, and that, in proportion as currency is placed in circulation, money 1 hereby will bechme more plentiful, consequently cheaper, and as the buying power of money comes down commodity prices will go up. New Money in Circulation If the bill passes, a veteran holding a SSOO certificate will receive payment in new, crisp, federal reserve hank notes, and every time a veteran is paid new money will be placed in circulation. The principle of “more money makes cheaper money” is admitted by financial experts and economists, and, because addition of new money to circulation will reduce the value of the dollar, the holders of notes and bonds are opposing the measure. It seems that all now admit that the dollar is too high priced; in other words, that it buys too much. Such arguments are being made before the ways and means committee and also in the senate. Senator Walcott of Connecticut recently made the statement: “Our dollar today buys too much, because commodity prices are lower than they should be.” . Would Boost Prices Senator Pat, Harrison has said, “So we have to inflate in some rational way, to increase prices of commodities in this country,” John A. Simpson, president of the Farmers’ National Union, says: “This country needs anew crop of money.” As to the amount of money necessary to be placed in circulation, we have an interpretation from Senator Glass of Virginia. In a recent senate debate, he said, “Who will say that if we might expand today to the extent of $4,000,000,000 the situation wouud not be cured?” Public sentiment is crystallizing back of a demand for more money and a cheaper dollar. If the principles set forth are sound, then the passage of the bill will have the following effects: “If the dollar is cheapened, instead of buying two bushels of wheat it perhaps will buy only one, and instead of buying twenty pounds of cotton it perhaps will buy only ten. The bill will aid and benefit directly the father or brother even more than the veteran himself. For Illustration, the veteran's father may have stored in his barn ten bales of cotton and may have in his granary 1,000 bushels of wheat. Help for Farmer Today his cotton is worth some 6 cents a pound, hence a 500-pound bale is worth S3O, and the ten bales are worth S3OO. Today wheat to the farmer is worth some 40 cents a bushel, hence his thousand bushels fire worth S4OO. If through an increase of currency in cirmculation commodity prices are increased so that, wheat on the farm will sell for 80 cents a bushel and cottOn will sell for 12 rents a pound, then value of the ten bales of cotton will be increased to S6OO and value of the wheat - will be increased to SBOO. In such case the veteran will get his SSOO certificate cashed and his father and brother—which means all farmers—will have the value of their commodities doubled. If prices are increased, industries such as mining, lumbering, livestock and oil production will be benefited directly and such increased prices will reinvest the masses with new buying power, which, in turn, will be reflected in business activity immediately.

To obtain a character analysis, write to Ml*s Marcuerito Carter, care of The Time*, statinr year, month and day of your birth. Inrlose ten rent* in coin for each birth date riven, to cover cost of mailinr reply. Be sure to include the return address. Letters can not he acknowledred unless these instructions are followed. IF today is the anniversary of your birth, you have a natural tendency to be amiable, yet you have a much greater inflexibility of will than many people do. You are quite capable of being absolutely unyielding sometimes. You are persistent and when directly opposed can be thoroughly stubborn. When things become difficult, however, you are apt to remain steady and level headed and it is difficult to hurry or frighten you into a false petition. You should be most successful in business because of natural energy and your persistent determination. nun Miss M. S. —Very few people reach the heights of achievement while waiting for thinks to “drop into their lap.” Tendency to go along * through life with that attitude undoubtedly is more characteristic of people born at certain times of the year than of those born at other times. It has been said with a degree of truth that some people have “greatness thrust upon them,” but that certainly is an exception, rather than the rule. To the swift goes the race and to the aggressor usually the spoils of victory. To a very great extent your future progress and development depends upon yourself. You undoubtedly have a tendency to drift along in a rut. That tendency you should constantly strive to overcome. nun MRS. G. L. W.—An analysis of yopr husband's birth date, in my opinion, shows that he has a great deal of ability to do the particular type of sales work which would be required in the position you say he has been offered. Under normal business conditions, there probably would be little doubt of his success in that field. I only can advise you that he should possess the ability to succeed therein. n n n L. 1). S.

I was born Sent. —l9l V AND the answer to that is, a great may young folks who go to parties, dances and so forth, without any sort of restraint, go through the same state of mental reaction, regardless of individual characteristics, just as human beings of any age do after sustained excesses of any kind. Asa matter of fact, my dear, you have no reason to feel “tired of life,” because you haven’t experienced anything of it excepting the veriest froth. Analysis of your birth date shows that you have a natural and instinctive fondness for good literature. That is almost always true of people born about the middle of September. It’s an absolute shame that your interest along that line has not been aroused. Seventeen is a very early age at which to become tired

I am mailing your complete'character analysis, which I am sure will help you greatly, if you follow it. n U U A Worried Mother Writes—l have a bov who is breaking my heart. Can you please tell me what is best to do? What is the cause of him being like he is and what do you think he is best suited for? He was born April —. FIRST reaction to that letter is that the situation is not nearly the exception it might be assumed to be. The fact is that the majority of boys at the age of this boy (17) are apt to be quite a problem. It is, however, undoubtedly a fact that those born at certain times ot the year are almost always more so than many others, which does not indicate necessarily that they are genuinely bad in fact. You ’’worried mother” have plenty of company in your worry. I have analyzed carefully his birth date and, in my opinion, no vicious tendencies are shown. You must remember that a boy of 17 has reached maturity in every way but in experience and judgment. His analysis shows natural fondness for experimental mechanics, especially as it concerns aviation. I suggest that you encourage him along that line. I advise you to carefully consider the complete analysis I am sending. (CoDvrieht. 19321 CHORINES TO VIE FOR TITLE OF CINDERELLA Most Beautiful Foot Will Win Complete Shoe Wardrobe.

By United Prttt ROME. April 25.—The Albatross airplane, fool-proof craft which will sustain itself with a stalled motor in the air, and glide like an albatross or an eagle, is understood to have passed rigid tests by the Italian air ministry. It was designed by Dr. Fernando Bemasconi of Rome, who claims the plan can glide for hours and coast from 40 to 60 miles from an altitude of 6,000 feet without landing. Its inventor said it has both the qualities of the gliding birds like sea gulls, falcons and especially the albatross, which can stay in the air for long periods without moving a wing, as well as those of the swallow and birds of prey, which can descend immediately on an object or other animal.
