Rogers (D-Fla) Satur day proposed a new plan for enabling former GI's to get cash now for their terminal leave pay bonds.

"; The bonds, which are not nego tiable now and may not oe cashed for five years after 'the veteran s discharge, bear two and one-half per cent interest. Rogers would require purchasers under his plan to pay veterans at least the face value of the bonds plus the in terest which has accrued to the date of their transfer.
