BELL AMENDMENT PASSED
Hoa9 Totei for Anti-Oioteen Fralare of
Civil Approprig-Jon Bii!
MR. BELL MAKES VIGOROUS ADDRESS
Believes that the tantee Privilege
I ader Present t'oadltlons W orks
injnatlre on the Old
solJIer.
WASHINGTON. March il.-CotisIderatlon
of the sundry civil appropriation bill was
resumed by the house today. When the
provision relating to the atste or territorial
homes for disabled soldiers and sailors
was reached Mr. Bell (Cal ) availed the
policy In force st these Institutions regard
ing the disposition of the Inmates. Re
ferring to the home in his owu state, he
said Its officials had degraded the state
to the position of conducting a saloon and
grog shop.
Under the rule now. existing, he declared,
the official, compel the soldier to surrendur
his pension and then pay It back to him
In canteen check. He offered an amend
ment to the bill In terms along the lines
of the law applying to the soldiers' home
In this city.
Mr. Hemenwsy (rep. Ind.), In charge of
the bill, opposed the amendment because
It was new legislation on an appropriation
bill. In the course of the discussion which
followed Mr. Hemenway declared that
state homes not only secure from the gov
ernment $100 a year fur the care of each
soldier, but withhold a part of the sol
dier's pension, thereby speculating on the
generosity of the government.
Mr. Bell interrupted to Inquire If the
state was not speculating on the pensions
of the old soldiers when the money was
spent. In canteen checks.
"I am ashamed of any state that would
do that," remarked Mr. Hemenway.
Ashamed of the State.
"And I am ashamed to say my state
does it," Mr. Bell declared, "and I am
here to stop It."
Mr. Hemenway replied that he would be
ashamed to represent a state that robbed
old soldiers.
Mr. Bell protested that he was proud
of his state, but ashamed of the bonrd
of governors of the home.
A point of order by Mr. Hemenway
against the amendment was overruled.
Tailing the floor again, Mr. Bell vigor
ously protested against the canteen at the
California state home and urged the
adoption of his amendment. The amend
ment provided that no part of the appro
priation shall apply to any state or terri
torial home In which the sons and daugh
ters of soldiers are admitted and main
tained, nor shall any part of It be appor
tioned to eny state or territorial home
that maintains a bar or canteen where In
toxicating liquors are sold.
Mr. Sherley (dem. Ky.) offered an
amendment to the amendment striking out
Its anti-canteen feature. He was, ho said,
as deeply grieved over the condition of
affairs In the California home, as was Mr.
Bell, but he emphatically declared agnlnst
"that species of paternalism which under
takes to legislate the morals of people."
Ho was, he said, opposed to any anti
canteen law.
The Sherley amendment In favor of the
canteen was voted down. The Bell amend
ment then was agreed to by a rising vote,
9 to ill.
A violent attack on the coast and geo
detic survey was made by . Mr. Rpblnson
(Ind.), who charged that scandal attached
to that office In connection with allow
ances for commutation of rubrlstence. Mr.
Hemenway. In charge of the bill. Indig
nantly denied the charges made.
