Washington, Feb. 21. 1'resideni Hard
Inir told C'ommndfr I lan ford M&cNI-ler
and a delegation from tha American Le
gion that he la 1th them, heart ar.d
noul. f
Smiling and happy, Mr. liacXlder and
hlii aiwoclatea walked from the execu
tive office, confident that they had ac
eomplliihed noniethlng by their visit to
the Whit House.
"Tha president authorized us to ajr
there, would be no delay that he would
aim a bonua bill," said John T. Taylor,
chairman of the legislative committee
of the American legion.
"Ild the president s.iy how the Money
via to be rmiaed?" ho was aaked.
"No, not a word, and we didn't ask
him "
"HaVe you any Idea where the money
la comlnif from?"
"No. but there Isn't going to be any
delay. The president Is la hearty sym
pathy with us. He told u ao."

t'ommander MacNUer had written
Mr. Harding ft rather forceful letter
which the president waa tempted to
answer at once, but he laid It in .his
'Irqk and decided Jr th'nk some riiore of !
the subjwt. Tliotm who claim to know
a hf VI r VIr'lilMi u-mta an v it nrolt-
Hbly Irritatwl Mr. Harding. Anywiy,
the reply wasn't delivered because Com
mamler MacNlder himself appeared In
person.
The Interview wan a pleasant one and
was devoted almoMt entirely to an ex
planation by Mr. Harding to the Amer
ican Legion of'why ho favored a bonus.
He had always favored one he made
the pledge when a candidate In the presi
dential primaries In 1920. The presi
dent told hla callers that he believed
congress favored a bonus.
' The revenue phaaa of the matter has
been carefully excluded from discussion
by the American Iegion men, who feel
that congress1 should find Its own solu
tion. V ,
8EATE FOR SALES TAX
The ceneral Impression following Mr.
MacNIder'a vlnit Is that the house will
report Vut and probably papa a bill fa
vorlng the bonus, but not specifying
. vlun It Is to be paid. This means in
definite postponement of. the cash fea
ture. It may be that the senate, where
a sales tux Is much mora popular than
, In the house, will affix a sales tax pro
vision. It may be that the whole mat
ter will tet tied up In the senate on the
expectation that the revenue problem
had better wait payments from nrltlsh
bonds. UnrjueHtionably Mr. Harding is
for a bonus and so la congrewa. but the
president himwlf is not ' committed to
anv deflnltn dato of payment. Unless
t the ' Legion demands Immediate pay
ment the chanrea are the whole ques
tlon will dnK or. beyond the congres
sloned elections. The house passed f
bonus bill In May. 100. but no funds
were provided to pay It. An Identical
. roeure is being urged agln.
COM FH TO REPEAT DFJIASI)
"We simply run dqwn every oni-e In i
whlU to reiterate our position." re
ntxrked Commander MacNlder a he ltft
the White House. "Tha American Legion
' h wacinK a fight for the f iiture--not
necessarily against this congress.
Whether funds are available at otn'e or
not.- It winhes to keep the bonus Ixsue
squarely before the government so that
the moment any funds do become avail
able throimli unv source the same will
be promptly applied to pay the soldters.'
If tha general conditions of tha country
Improved, we have every reason to be
lieve that the a-overnment's income. In'
the not far distant future, will in
crease under the revenue law.
"In the near future also we can se
cure funds through the sale of foreign
ei-urltlea. Taking that into considera
tion, it would not be such an extra
ordinary thin at this, time if congress
felt It was not called upon to make all
the provisions needed tor the purpose of
n etting all the demands of the treas
ury for adjusted compensation.
TKEDICT8 PASSAGE '
"Congress, at least the house, will, in
my opinion, pass the bonus bill. My own
potion is. since it Is well understood that
t'ift house will pass the legislation, that
it might well be the part of wisdom, not
to press the matter fori Immediate con
sideration, as the situation in the near
future will clear up.
"I do not have in mind any long
postponement I am not prepared to
sir what the house would do on the
proposal."
Kordney reiterated his declaration that
a bonus bill would be reported out in
'several days," but declined to predict
what form the bill will take.
Representative Long-worth of Ohio, an
influential member of the committee
said that in his opinion to report out
a bill without provisions for raising
the revenue would be "arrant political
cowardice," and an attempt to dodge the
situation.
FAST WAT OCT
He said, however, that considerable
sentiment existed in favor of doing this.
Such a bi'.l, according to Longworth,
would simply authorise the payment of
the bonus from funds In the treasury
not otherwise appropriated,' and no such
funds exist. It will be necessary, there
fore, to make an appropriation, accord
ig to Longworth.
If the bill were reported out without
revenue provisions the Idea would be to
tilixe funds from the sale of . obliga
ons of foreign governments, obtained
hen their debts to this government are
funded. When that will be no
knows. It was thought that 9250.004,000
annually might be available from Brit-
U-h bonds, a sum Insufficient by 100.
000,000 or more.' The additional -revenue
vould come from economies, and .perhaps
through the sale of surplus government
property.
Sentiment in the senate is against
such "a measure and passage of it by
the house would in effect be transferring
the problem to the upper chamber with
more delay. t 1

Talk No. 6 On
Applied Psychology!
For Business and Professional People
"Ones life, personality
and environment is deter
mined by his fixed habits
of thought."
The
substance of the entire
subject of Psychology is
summed up In the above sen
tence. It contains material
for hundreds of sermons, as
many books and a complete
knowledge of human nature.
Whether you believe it or not,
it is a scientific fact that
people are popular or unpop
ular, sick or well, happy , or
unhappy, rich or poor, a suc
cess or a failure because the
impressions that they uncon
sciously create upon others is
colored by their own subcon
scious thinking.
To achieve personal liberty
one must assume the personal
responsibility that goes with
it. So far as the conscious
mind Is concerned most peo
ple are totally unaware that
down deep in their hearts,
hidden even from themselves,
are desires and impressions '
that prevent them from at
taining that happy state of
being that their conscious
minds desire. They deny
themselves "Life more abun
dant." The life of everyone is
ruled by the thinking down
in his heart. It is the deter
mining factor of personality
and environment. These deep
thoughts come to the surface
in the most unexpected ways
and places. If your person
ality and environment is not
what you would have it learn
how to change these predomi
nant mental impressions that
are buried deep within you.
If you can know these deep
impressions in the minds of
your employes and associates
you can forecast definitely
itnd .exactly what thev will
do under any given set of
circumstances.
The science of Applied Psy
chology teaches the method
of reaching the subconscious
mind and changing its pre
dominant mental impressions
so as to enable you to make
a success out of your pres
ent handicaps. It also teaches
you how to ascertain these
impressions in the minds of
others and know thereby
what manner of man you are
dealing with. It furnishes you
with a road-map for the
journey, of life and a yard
stick by which to measure
human nature.
Our course of six lessons in
Applied Psychology differs
from other courses in, that It
confines itself strictly to
principles and methods that
are provable and definitely
workable. It provides de
tailed and easily understand
able instruction on every"
phase of the subjel It' Is
of Incalculable value to any
one who deals with the pub
lic and i particularly so to
those in positions of responsi
bility and authority involv
ing the hiring and handling
of help.
There are many prominent
business and professional
men in Portland who have
proven the value of this
course, to themselves, in dol
lars and cents. Their names
and addresses may be had
for the asking. In addition
we have a standing offer to
refund, on demand, at the
end of the course, the tuition
fee of any student who feels
that he did not get his mon
ey's worth. Under, this ar
rangement you hare every
thing to gain and nothing to
lose. In your own interest,
investigate.

The Practical Way to Save
a T'--' V'-1-
hv"r1rePMi18li .
fANY people wear themselves
out trying to earn more than
they spend, rather than spend
less than they earn. In other words,
they go at thrift backwards.
Instead of buying extravagantly and
trusting to luck that his income will be
big enough to cover his purchases the
wise man adjusts his expenditures to
his income as it actually is.
By that method there, is always a sur
plus to invest. And where better than in
