New Project Designed to Unite Pan-American Union, League and Non-Member Nations. DFTCHING OF BONUS BT MARK SULLIVAN. (Copyright hy the New York Evening Host PuMl.-hed by Arrangement.) . WASHINGTON. D. C. Aug. 28. (Special.) The uppermost question about the soldier bonus now is just wl at kind of a veto President Hard ing will give It. That he will veto it is bv this time universally ac cepted, although the pro-bonus lead ers apparently intend to go on the assumption that he will not. It is said to be their intention to make an impressive country-wide demonstration with the purpose of bringing pressure on Mr. Harding' at the moment when he has the bill in his hands. The plan, it is said, is to precipi tate a deluge of telegrams on the White House from republican gov ernors, republican state chairmen, distant members of the republican national committee and other local republican" leaders. This is expected to have the result of embarrassing President Harding and the repub lican party, even though it will be without effect in preventing the VftO. Discussion as to just what forms the veto could take engages the in terest of many who are in close con tact with the fight. There are three possible forms. One would be a strong, ringing veto, which would go to the heart of the principle of the bonus proposals. Those who want the president to make this kind of a veto say it would have two effects. One would be to end the whole bonus discussion and to put it out of consideration permanently, ot at least until the end of the Harding administration. Other Advantage Seen. The other advantageous effect pointed out by those who favor this kind of a veto would be the giving to the country of an impression of decision ani strength on the part of Mr. Harding. It is held that a strong, firm veto message would overcome a good deal of the feeling now acknowledged to exist through out the country adverse to Harding because of what is held by those who criticise him for an excess of patience, the lack df strong action and quick decisiveness n his course with regard to the strikes. Why this sort of permanent veto, based on principle, may be dif ficult for Mr. Harding lies in the fact that in the past he has ex pressed himself as in favor of the principle of adjusted compensation for the soldiers. This expression was made in the primary campaign preceding the presidential campaign. The expres sion was vague, but nevertheless it is on the record. In this respect Harding is in much the same . osi- tion as several senators who gave a vague assent to the idea at a time when they had not thought it over fully and when they did not realize the amount of money involved. This brings us to tne second form which Harding's veto of the bonus could take. That form would be in the nature of postponement. Presi dent Harding could refrain from saying anything about the principle of the bonus and confine his rea sons for the veto merely to saying that the present. state of the treas ury and the present weight of taxa tion are such that the government could not expend such a sum at present. That form of veto might or might not placate the American legion leaders. It would certainly be unsatisfactory to those opponents of the bonus who want the question settled now for all time. The third form which the veto could take under some circum stances would consist merely of si lence. If the seriate should arrange to pass the soldiers' bonus and then recess, without waiting for any message on it from the White House, this would have the effect of end ing the bonus for the present ses sion without Harding going on rec ord on it one way or the other. With congress away. refraining from action by the president would have the effect of a veto. This would work out not so much for Harding's comfort as to give relief to the rather more embarrassed sen ators. To the republican senators or at least to those of them who are go ing to vote for the bonus this course would have the agreeable ad vantage of relieving them from the necessity o'f going on record on a rollcall to pass the bonus over the president's veto. Leaders Sorely Tried. It is obvious how embarrassing it must be to republican leaders like Lodge and Watson, for example, to vote to pass a measure over the veto of a republican president. If this could be avoided it would be very much to the taste of many embar rassed republican senators. Those of them who want to give their con stituents a picture in favor of the bonus would be enabled to do so through having voted for it in the first instance. At the same time they would avoid giving their con stituents the picture of voting to pass a measure over a republican president's veto. This suggested possibility of pass ing the bonus and then taking a re cess and going back home is hardly within the probabilities. Among other things it would include leav ing the final adoption of the tariff up in the air until after the election. In any event, it is certain that the bonus bill will be vetoed; that there are not enough votes in the senate to pass it over the president's veto, and that the bonus will not be on the books at any time in the im mediate future. This outcome, which your corre spondent has long expected, is now accepted practically universally.

All the men are being held under a murder charge and active search is being made for the union official who ordered the work done.

Meanwhile, throughout the nation conditions were reported as increas ingly serious. All train service on the Chicago & Alton on its west ern' division was halted through the refusal of brotherhood members to take trains out. Small Towns Face Famine. Small towns along the division line, without train service for more than three days, were facing fam ine conditions Some of these villages, notably Woodson, Murraysville, Manches ter, Berdan, Drake, Delhi, Hillsdew, Pleasant Hill. Pearl and Nebo, were reported ' as -commandeering all available trucks to establish a .re lay service that provisions might be obtained. The bombing of two bridges and a railroad track at Roodhouse was followed today by a pitched battle between United States deputy mar shals and an automobile load of strikers, two of whom were cap tured and lodged in jail at Spring field, IIL They gave the names of W. S. Beyer and E. Y. Ramsey, both of Roodhouse. The name of a dep uty marshal, shot in the arm, could not be learned. Bomb Thrown at Home. At Bloomington, HI., an attempt was made today to bomb the home of I. Hickok, general foreman of the Chicago & Alton shops. The blast shook homes and shattered windows for blocks around. No casualties and but minor property damage oc curred. Another outbreak was reported at Moline, 111., where a sniper with a high-powered rifle made things un pleasant for a number of United States deputy marshals for more than an hour. The cornfield in which the man was hidden was finally raked with bullets, sniper disappeared. No one The was hurt. From Memphis, Tenn., came .- re port today of an attempt to wreck the fast Florida-California flier of the Frisco lines. Track inspectors found 18 spikes drawn from a rail near Capleville, a suburb. This fol lowed a similar attempt Saturday on the main line of the Nashville. Chattanooga and St. Louis railroad a short distance from the city limits. Department of justice operatives began working on the case. Two Brothers Killed. At Camak,- Go-. Dan and Bailey Latimore. brothers, were shot and killed by W. T. Hall, a guard in the Georgia railroad yards, after an argument. In Chicago, a dispute over authority led to the shooting of George Newberry by, Edward T. Burns. Both were watchmen em ployed in the Chicago & Alton yards. At Chaffee, Mo., Paul Mattingly, local chairman of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen, notified the Frisco railroad .that unless national guardsmen were withdrawn the members of his union would walk out. At Havelock, Neb., Governor Mc Kelvie walked out on the platform during a meeting of 1000 strikers and told them that unless disorders ceased he would call out state troops and put the troops on guard in every railroad center in the state.

Virginia Edwards Has so Busy Time That She Wishes for Few Sloments of Relaxation. Miss Portland, winner of The Ore gonian beauty contest, must be hav ing a happy time, trying on new dresses and accessories, being feted by her friends, attending social af fairs as guest of honor and being sought after and given good wishes by everybody this, at least, is the popular idea of the joys of being a beauty contest winner. Then just ahead is a delightful trip to Atlantic City's national pag eant of beauty, where Miss Portland will be an honored guest throughout the festivities, a princess of King Neptune's court and a contestant in the national contest to determine America's loveliest girl. But Virginia Edwards, charming Portland girl who had the honor of representing this city at the Atlantic coast competition given her asthe result of winning The Oregonian contest, had so many things to do yesterday that she was kept on the move every minute and once she sighed for a few moments of relaxa tion that ehe could call her own. She decided she will have to wait until she gets to Atlantic City to catch up on rest for no opportunity remains for a few extra winks or an afternoon nap before early to morrow morning, when she will leave for San Francisco on her way east. A new afternoon frock has been added to Miss Portland's wardrobe by H. Liebes & Co., who presented it to her. The dress i& a drop stitch black crepe with green chiffon underslip, short sleeves and boat neck. There is a bead girdle of different shades of green and rose. A drape, longer than the skirt, hangs in folds. The hat that matches the frock was presented by the Famous milli nery. It is of black silver metal cloth with black and silver feathers. Another adorable hat that suits Miss Portland's type splendidly was given her by the Wonder millinery.

It -was placed on the coffin lid, and was tenderly laid there again later when the coffin was lowered to the grave. , At the grave side, Richard Mul cahy. who succeeds as commander-in-chief of the national army, speak ing of the lifework and the ideals of Michael Collins for Irish freedom, said solemnly: "Michael Collins can never be buried, for his spirit will live to guide to achievement his ideals."

Dr. Foga-rty, bishop of Killaloe, was the celebrant of the mass, which was attended by a. great gathering of clergy, including Arch bishop Duhig of Brisbane. Australia, Archbishop Curley of Baltimore, who is visiting his aged mother at Athlone, was not present but was represented by Father Edward A. "Williams of St. Mary's church, Catonsville, Maryland. On a catafalque before the high altar rested the coffin, covered with a silk Irish tri-color; the catafalque itself was draped in black about the edifice: bullet holes in paintings of the church patron saints bore evi dence that Ireland's war was not yet over. Work; Held Indestructible. Bishop Fogarty likened Michael Collins to Joan of Arc. "It seems to be God's way," he said, "but the flames that extinguished that heroine's life did not destroy her works. So will it be with Machael Collins. The work he did is inde structible; he gave us more than Orleans. "Sooner or later the people will get going in earnest, and when they J do they will make short work of the wreckers. Then will the heroic fig ure of General Collins tower high in glory while they who contrived his death lie buried in shame." Ireland is a land of the unexpected and the future is uncertain. If, how ever, one may judge by the expres sions of the average citizen and the operators of the newspapers, the tragic removal of the nation's two great figures, Griffith and Collins, w"l not weaken the course of the free state but, on the contrary, will strengthen it, first, because it is backed hy public opinion, and sec ond, what is called the martyrdom of Griffith and Collins has rallied the people around the banner of patriotism. The Oregonian publishes practi cally all of the want ads printed in the other three Portland papers, in addition to thousands of exclusive advertisements not printed in any other local paper. GRENOBLE. France. Aug. "7. (By the Associated Press.) A new plan for a "world association of states" to link together the league of nations, the Pan-American union and those governments which are members of neither was submitted today to the institute of interna tional law at its meeting here by Professor Alejandre Alvarez of Chile. The plan was presented .in the form of a report drafted by Pro fessor Alvarez for the twenty-seventh commission- of the institute which approved it at an executive session held in Paris from July 31 to August 3. The new association would be superimposed upon the present league and Pan-American union and would seek to encourage regional and continental groups rather than attempt to replace them entirely. It is designed to meet the American objections to the league of nations, with the primary pur pose of co-ordinating the states of the world not establishing' a super state. - Inadequacy Is Recognised. Six fundamental questions were aiiiiTviittpvi tin the institute's mem bers, comprising many nationalities. Forty replies were received ana studied. The inadequacy of the pj-esent league as a world . grouping ' was franlrlv r'ecne-nized and it was deemed wiser to let it remain as a sort of European organization. The insufficiency of the league was de ljsrerl to bp baser! largely uoon the attitude of the United States, to gether Tith the absence oi Germany and Russia. Other objections urged against the l9 0.i7e were that it limits the sov ereignty of its membetstatcs, makes admission and withdrawal too aii- ficult and takes a view of things too exclusively European. International Body Wanted. While the league has many mer its, its operation, the report finds, has tended rather to separate than to draw Europe and America closer together. Europe, it is held, needs an international organization more than does America, for Europe is less stable politically and there are more rivalries and ambitions. This convention, which consists of 18 articles, creates "a world asso ciation of states which has as its mission to establish liaison hetween the League of Nations, the Pan American Union and the states be longing to none of these groups." "The association," it says, "will consider questions of world or con-' tinental interest. It will have as Its duties, 'notably to watch over the general interests of humanity, take ineasures to eliminate the causes ' of war, initiate adequate methods for the Pacific settle ment of conflicts between states, strengthen bonds of all sorts be tween countries, promote universal co-operation and accomplish grad ual codification of international law. The association will act only by means of recommendation." All members of the league and the Pan-American Union would auto matically become members of the association unless they specifically refused, and the others would be admissible by two-thirds vote of the assembly. LOUIS BERGMAN SUICIDE Cloak, and Suit Merchant Hangs Himself in His Store. Financial worries, complicated by a damage suit recently filed against him, are said to be the cause of the suicide of Louis Bergman, local cloak and suit merchant, who was found hanging in a washroom in his store at 142 Third street about 10 o'clock yesterday morning. Berg man also operated a store at 283 Alder street and a store at Walla Walla. The body was discovered by Frank Walling, a roofer, who was at work on the building. Bergman had hanged himself with a piece of clothesline attached to a water pipe.
