Recent confusing moves on the bonus are likely to become more confusing be fore they get simpler. This because several of tne most Influential forces behind the bonus have ft planned strategy. They have been working on It lor the past few weeks. It calls for the senate to pass the Vinson bill, approved by the American Le PAUL MALLON gion. The house will drop the Pat man btll, approved by the Veterans of Foreign Wars. The Vinson bill will then be finally adopted by, con gress and promptly vetoed by Presi dent Roosevelt. His veto wS.1 be sus tained by the senate, whereupon thu Harrison compromise will be taken up. adopted by congress and ap proved by the president. It may not work out exactly that way. but. that Is the scheme. Essen tially, the Idea Is to make Mr. Roose velt veto an unacceptabel bill before congress approves an acceptable bill, Some of you Innocent people who do not know politics may wonder why congress does not . enact the compromise at once, and save all that time and worry. Things are never done here that way. This strategy Is essentially the same as that used by Tom SafSfyer to escape from his aunt's woodshed. To walk out the front door would be too easy. An escape, to be digni fied, must look hard. Also j'ou must not forget that political pree attaches to a con gressman who stands for a bill spon sored by the active veteransVprgan aations. Later the same congress men may stand In with the presi dent by voting to sustain his eto. Thus he gets the prestige of sup porting the veterans and the presi dent simply by voting both ways on the same Issue. That has been done before. There seems to be some slight dif ference of Inner opinion as to wheth er the president will have his bonus veto sustained by tne senate, a iew senators apparently believe the Vin son bill might be passed over a veto. The exact situation on this was summed up by a wise old senatorial owl, who said: "If a president who controls four billion dollars of relief expenditures cannot win more than one-third of the senate on any Issue, he Is too dumb to be president." The big third party rally here turned nut to be a meeting of the sixteenth or seventeenth party ln-sr-eftd of the third.

At present, It was pointed out by city officials, interest rates in Mod ford are very low and the city has outstanding $250,000 in Improvement bonds which are callable and which bear Interest averaging 5' per cent. Big Saving Seen The city hopes to refund these bonds at not more than four per cent, which should save .the city j between 2000 and $3000 a year on I Interest charges. "The special election : was called to authorize the council j to. refund these particular bonds and to confirm present bonds to be re funded so that no question will arise on refunding bonds to be issued," City Attorney Frank Farrell said. The action relative to the contin uation of SERA work was tak,n In view of the fact that the SERA has closed all rural relief cases through out the state. Under the SERA program the city Is required to pay workmen's com pensation for all men employed and furnish such materials and supplies as may be needed. The contribution of the city Is about 15 per cent of the total amount of money spent within the city, and unless this con tinues to be furnished all SERA work withm the city will cease, of ficials said. Averaged S2 2.000 Month SERA labor has averaged approxi mately J22.000 a month and pro vides work for the heads of about 800 families, keeping such families (Continued on Page I'en C. OF C.
