KNOCKOUT BLOW DEALT SOLDIERS' BONUSPROPOSAL Quietus Given Plans to Recom pense Former Service Men By Highest Treas ury Officials. By ARTHUR SEARS HENNING Chicago Tribune-Omaha Uee leased Wire. Washington, March 11. Proposed soldiers' bonus legislation was dealt a staggering blow today before the house committee on ways and means by the highest officials of the treas ury and the ?j,uuu,udu,wu compens.i tion clan is now regarded dead s far as this session of congress is. concerned. Secretary of the Treasury Hous ton, Assistant Leffingwell and W. 1' G. Harding, governor of the fedora reserve board, asserted that a $2,000, 000,000 bond issue would be disas trous to the credit of the country and to Liberty, bondholders, that a consumption tax to furnish the huee bonus would enhance further the high cost of living and that rais ing income taxes would only add to the already heavy ourani oi taxation without increasing the wealth of the nation. Governor Harding said it would be necessary to fix the rate of inter est at 6 oer cent or higher in order to sell bonus bonds at all. Mr. Lef fingwell asserted that, only the re creation of a gigantic organization such as was brought together dur ing the war with 2,000,000 volun teer workers and a rekinding of the same sort of patriotism would sell the bonds, no matter what the rate of interest might be. Secretary Houston opposed the suggestions made by former Secre tary of the Treasury McAdoo for reducing taxation by $1,000,000,000 yearly. He said he saw no chance of reduced taxes, but thought a re vision of the revenue laws ' would help to adjust inequalities. ' France Moves to Resume Relations With the Vatican Paris. March 11.
