There Is renewed activity about the bonus bill, but there isn't any sign that its real status has changed. Persons who are a little cynical about all legislation that comes up at the moment when congressmen and senators are before their constituents for re-nomination and re-election are likely to assume hat the bonus bill is now a situation where it is affected more by politics than by consideration of merit or conviction.

Mlent Harding, which In turn is determined by the state of the treasury. President Harding has said that any bonus bill which is put on the statute books should be in good faith to the soldiers, and should provide them with substance, rather than mere appearance. This stand disposes of those bonus suggc-ctions which postpone substantially all of the benefit to the indefinite future. Condition Unalterable. President Harding has further taken the position that any bonus bill
put into law should carry with it, as a part of the bill, some means of mising the, money necessary to pay the bonus. This latter condition is unalterable. The large amount of cash necessarily involved in any bonus bill of good faith cannot be taken out of revenues the government now has. In fact, the government's present revenue is short of enough to pay the present claims on it. The rate of taxation that is now lmposed on the country is barely suffic-i ient to pay the country's present expenses, and well informed persons who look the facts in the face know that this present rate of taxation cannot be substantially reduced for many years to come, even though there should be no bonus bill passed. If there is to be a genuine bonus bill, there must be further taxation.

(Ry Associated Press) WASHINGTON, June 2. The Senate convened in an atmosphere of restored calm today to resume consideration of the tariff bill at the point

operation Secretary Hoover said he regretted that a small minority of the operators representing western Kentucky had refused to co-operate and were demanding $4.25 a ton, a price which he said he did not feel justified in advising the public to accept, although production costs were higher there than in other fields. The conferences with Pennsylvania operators have been arranged for next week, he said. The $3.50 maximum has been accepted by the operators of Virginia, West Virginia, Tennessee and eastern Kentucky. Mr. Hoover said he had been informed, while the rate of 25 cents a ton below fhe Garfield scale feus been accepted by the Alabama operators.

BAIL WORKERS UNDECIDED ON PARTICIPATION Question of Whether Four Transportation Brotherhoods Will Join in Cincinnati Meeting Uppermost. MAY CHANGE PLACE
(Bv Associated Pre) CINCINNATI, O., June 2 Whether or not the four transportation brotherhoods should attend the conference and join the 12 other railroad organizations in action on wage reductions was the question uppermost In the minds of railroad men today following announcement that such a conference would be held here next Tuesday to take up matters vital to the welfare of all railroad workers. The railroad labor board has announced that its series of wage decisions to be concluded before July 1 will not include the transportation brotherhoods, and it was pointed out that until they are given a decision they will not have ground for com plaint. K. H. Fitzgerald, grand president of the Brotherhood of Railway Clerk?, denied last night that he had anything more to do with calling the conference than to consult his associates and agree to be present. It was stated the initiative had been taken by B. M. Jewell, president of tiurailway department of the American Federation of Labor, who acted upon the assumption that the heads of all organizations affiliated with the federation would be in Cincinnati for t'.te annual convention and it would he convenient for them to get together.

President Harding has said that theision a motion bv the latter to ad-

only new and additional form of taxa
tion which seems practicable to provide for the bonus would be the sales tax. This brings the case again to where it has always been, namely, the bonus bill plus the sales tax or no bonus bill at all. The proposal fora fales tax gains gradual strength, but this strength is far short of enough to justify any expectation that it could be passed by the present congress and enatf. Long Debate Certain It is possible that, as Senator Wat-
on of Indiana has said, some kind of! a bonus bill may be passed by the j
present congress. On the other hand, when the bonus bill comes up for debare in the senate the time consumed in that date is going to be considerable. There is1 a large group of senators who are determined, when the situation arises, to debate the issue thoroughly on principle. Considering that a good deal of the senate's time is already mortgaged to debate on the tariff bill, it is not by any means certain that the bonus bill will come to a vote before election If it should come to a vote, it probably would be passed: but if it is not the sort of

Mr. McCormick playing the doubl role of father and guardian has asreed 1o withhold consent of the marrlag? at least until Saturday. Meanwhile the situation was Tcr?de more complex by information frri:r Zurich that the whole legal embroligo ir. Chicago is for naught. This information was to the effect that the Swiss law requires the consent of both parents, if living, in the casae of a bride under 20 years of age. Mathilda, who is only 17. was given a guardian, it was said, so consent to the marriage could be given or denied according to her wishes.
