The house soldiers' bonus tax committee got no where today at its first session to (lis cuaa ways and nieana of financing the bonus. Several members were absent and it finally was decided lo put the whole question over until later in the day.

There appeared to be little doubt, however, that the commit tee would recommend that form of levy.
