SENATE FINDS SLIGHT

GIVEN

BY WAR BUREAU

INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE "WASHINGTON', Mar. 9 The senate has bared Its teeth to the war department over an alleged "s'r'ght" suffered when the Unknown Soldier was buried. The war department, in charge of the runeral parade placed the senate far back in the line of march behind hundreds of clerks and secretaries to bureau heads. The senators brought up the rear of the parade but withheld protests because of the sacredness of the event. The "slight," however, was not forgotten. It was sharply recalled by Senator Ashurst, Democrat, of Arizona, on the floor of the senate. "How can this body expect the reverence of the people when the war department offers us a .slight and we accept It without protest," he said. "We were last In line when the Unknown Soldier was buried. The illustrious body, the elected of the people, was forced to march behind clerks and secretaries. It was an ldignity that made one's blood boil." "Yes, the war department told us to take a back seat," interrupted Senator Robinson, Democrat, of Arkansas. ."This Inocuous body cannot expect to take precedence over the clerks who run the government."

G. D. P. LEADERS DETERMINED TO PASS IT

INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE WASHINGTON, March 9. In the face of the implied warning that President Harding is opposed to the completed soldier bonus bill ,now pending in the house because It does not provide for a sales tax to rai so the nece.'S'sary money. Republican leaders yestercay were determined to pass the measure in Its present form. They do not believe that the president will veto the bill after It gets through congress. It was pointed out that the original bonus requirements of the president were that (1) there should be no reenactment of repealed taxes on excess profits, (2) that the treasury should not be called upon to meet a heavy draft for cash payments, and (3) that interest received on the foreign debt to the United States should not be used. Republican leaders of the house declare that all of these conditions have been met in the present bill, for it takes less than J16,000,000 out of the treasury, levies r.o additional taxes and makes no provision for the use of foreign debt bonds.
