WASHINGTON, March 7—Soldier bonus legislation got away to a flying start at the first executive meeting yesterday of the House Ways and Means committee when it voted , 16 to 14 to frame a bill, but a snag, was struck when the form of payment was discussed. Attention was centered on two plans—paid up insurance policies, and a two-fold scheme with options of full cash payments or insurance. After a heated discussion of the proposals, marked by a spirited verbal battle between Representative Treadway of Mississippi, and Crowther of New York (Rep.) further consideration was postponed until tomorrow. Representative Treadway was one of those voting against any form of a bonus, and when Crowther later charged the committee with dilatory tactics which, he said, were aimed to delay progress of the legislation j Bacharach (Rep.) of New Jersey, stepped between the two members' when they started toward each other.: A reconciliation was quickly affected. , The other three who opposed the' I bonus were Representative Tilaon, j Connecticut, and Mills, New York (Rep.) and Collier (Dem.) Missis-'

sippi.

Representative Bachthach advanced the paid-up insurance scheme and was instructed to prepare data on it Several proponferltfl of th# full cash

l Wednesday by the committee of five north ; Democrats .named by the House 1 , Democvrat conference, to confer with 1

. the committee on bonus legislation. Representative Jeffers, of Alabama,

chairman, declared its cost would not! | exceed $1,400,000,000 and suggested

it be financed by a bond Issue,

, The insurance proposal of Bach-* j arach would provide policies with

values based on the number of days of service of veterans, allowing $2.65 for each day of service. Such a bonus

would cost in all about $2,000,000,000 he estimated, and not more than $78,-' 000,000, in any one year. |

session and vetoed by President Hard-1 ing has not been discarded by the' committee. Chairman Green said,' but if either of the two plans now ;

KENNEDY V DESCRIPTION A three tube Regenerative Receiver adaptable to dry or wet batteries and any type tube- Tuning controlled by a single dial. Responds to all wavelengths with or without aerial Extremely Se-

lective.

Realizing that RADIO is rapidly growing in popular favor, we decided to make connections with some reliable and well established firm- With the idea of getting a RADIO outfit which would equal the quality of our other musical merchandise, we made a careful study of the radio field and decided upon the KENNEDY—one of the oldest and best known sots made. We are the exclusive Kennedy dealers for Putnam County.

Radio Here To Stay Radio is not a passing fad. It is here to stay. To quote from a recent issue of the “Radio Digest.” official radio publication: “The Victor Talking Machine Company has installed a new broadcasting station, which will soon give the invisible audience an opportunity of hearing records in the making.” Not only will you he able to enjoy the present artists, but you may soon hear the world’s greatest dance orchestras and artists making Victor Records-

Under Most Unfavorable Conditions the Kennedy set has accomplished wonders. The most enthusiastic radio fans have been baffled at the performance of the KENNEDY. Operating with OR WITHOUT an aerial we have been able to get many stations in all parts of the country—not as you probably have been “getting” them hut with such clearness and volume that one can hear in all parts of a large room-

Free Demonstrations—No Obligations We are perfectly willing to prove these facts and if yon say the word we will gladly bring a KENNEDY set to your horn® and LET YOU operate it. No experience isneceeeary, for a child can operate a KENNEDY perfectly.
