BARGAlNS-SIMONS BARGAINS-SIMON'S BARGAlNsjl Wi Celt A i $ i 1- i , To the jobless x-fighter who needs the cash, to the congressman who needs votes in November, to the taxpayer who must eventually foot the bill, the question whether a bonus shall be paid to our soldiers'of the great war and how the money is to be raised to pay it, is of increasing interest. To raise the money to pay a bonus various new taxes are suggested. The idea of legalizing and taxing the sale of light wines and beers won. the enthusiastic advocacy of the New York World The National Grange comes out for an excess profits tax. Some congressmen suggest that taxation may be avoided by paying a tax out of the savings realized by reductions in the Army and in Navy personnel. - ' - - - Why tax anybody, asks Arthur Brisbane, in the New Vork' American, "why not simply print the currency and pay the soldiers with perfectly good money manufactured by the Government at the cost of paper and printing, without taxing anyone or disturbing any Uisiness?" . The Daily New, New York, defends the bonus as "simple justice to the nation's defenders," and "an investment in good-will." The financial objections do not greatly impress the Seattle Times, which "ventures the modest prediction that bonus legislation will be enacted at this session and that money will be found with which to finance the payment to former service men." But the opposition to the bonus is being vigorously voiced by such widely scattered dailies as the New Haven Journal Courier, Newark News, Syracuse Herald, Buffalo Commercial, Philadelphia In quirer, Dallas News, and Louisville Courier Journal, not to mention the truck loads of letters and tele grams being sent to the Capitol and the White Hoiise. The leading article in THE LITERARY DIGEST this week presents all the arguments current for and againstthe bonus, and the various methods that have been suggested to finance it.
