Harding Detlarta Sympathy for
‘‘Avowed Purposes” of Bill
But ProviHions
Woiti n STIFLE FUTURE
CONSCIOUSNESS OF DUTY
WASHINGTON, Sept. 19-
President Hardin? vetoed the
soldiers’ bonus bill today, in
forming Congreaa in a written
message that while he was in
accord with “the avowed pur
poses" of the meusure he did
not subscribe to its nrovisions.
The executive action was re
garded generally in Washington
as making improbable n bonus
for the world’s war veterans, at
least for some time to come as
it appeared to be almost certain
that the veto would be sustain
ed by the Senate. A vote in the
Houae—with passage probable
—was planned for tomorrow
with Senate action to follow- la
ter in the day or on Thursday.
Mr. Harding set forth a lum
ber of reasons for returning 1 lie
bill to the House without his
approval. These included:
Kiaxon* For Vrl«
Failure «f (on terra* proxidc
a mean* of financing.
Thai Inevitably (hr bonus would
■lran increased taxation.
That thr legislation would w|pr
out everything thus far accom
plished to redner Government #*-
pondHurra « hrrrrrr pooalhle.
That a peace beotowal on thr er
as rvlce men waa “a prrrrraion of
puhllr fnnda” and *uggr«terf "that
future defense (« lo hr inspired by
compensation rathrr than ronsrfeua
»e« of duty to Its* and country,"
Cnwlar Dtatributlon
That (o add oar-oUth of thr total *i
*“* of the public drbt for dUtrl
hutlon among Ira* than flrr million
; °f lII.tH,UI people would aader
mtnr eonSdenee on which the na
credit waa buildrd and
‘‘eatahlUh the precedent of dis
tributing puhllr fund* whenever the
propoaal and the number* affected
make It aeem purftlirslly appealing.
That the ten billion dollars of
malaria* puhllr debt in the next
•lx years would he difficult ta meet i
without adding the romp lie at lona
of added borrowings on account of
a honaa.
Meant Sacrificial Barter
That the adjusted service certi
ficate plan of payment with Ita hank
and Government loan provisions
waa little leea than a certified In
ability of Ihe Government to pay
and Invited “a practice of »a<rl«-
rlal barter" by the veteranr.
That the hoaaa would not dimin
ish the later obligation in thr way
of penaioaa to the World War
veteran*.
Asserting that this obligation
woo Id “coat more billions than I
venture to suggest," the President
declared that a "rational financial
fblkf today la necessary to make
the sallon ready for the expendi
ture which la certain to hr re
quired In the coming years."
liio Position All Along
Mr. Harding also called attention
to the sum* now helng expended for
the care of the diseased, disabled
or dependent and asserted that the
total coot of thi* work with Insur
ance liability added probably would
exceed twenly-Uve billion dollara.
In v»*oing the bonus bill, the chief
executive consistently maintain* the
position he ha* held nil slong t.gqrding

RED CROSS Will JOO
SECOND HEALTH NURSE
New Worker lo Devote Major
Effort* to Tuberculoui*
Fight
At s called meeting of the executive
board of the local Red Cross yesterday
afternoon, the recommendation proposed
by the Council of Hociai Agencies at on
earlier meeting waa unanimously adopt
' d; and Wayne County chapter will
undertake the support of a second field
nurse, or public health worker, who
will give the most of her time to tu
1 oerculosia work among the white and
colored people of the county.
Mis* Rose Khrrnfeld, state director
of Public health nursing, a former Red
Cross official but now a member of the
North Carolina Htale Board of Health,
was present and suggested a very con
crete plan which was favorably recelv
ed. The support of the new nurse will
be entire'y from Red Cross funds, but
hei program of work will by supervised
by the county health department In or
der that there will be no conflict.
Wayne county ha* a population of
(3,000. It Is clearly evident that the
present public health nurse is unable
lo get m touch with all of the suffering

second nurse will make possible an ex

! New lirnnd of Outlaw Rob* the
Old Brand Which Now
Squala
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1* - Congress
will probably be callrd upon to legis
late against a new form of outlawry,
| according to Washington police offi
cials. Representative Andrew Volstead
and other ardent "drys" may not relish
the thought of voting for u law making
the highways safer for bootleggers, but
tjtst will be one effect of the legisla
tion.
A profitable business ha* recently
been built up by what are known in |
bootleg rirrle* a* "knock-off men.” The
Intler ore the wplvrs of the business
who earn a living by holding up well
intentioned bootleggers after they jiave
passrd the State line with a consign
ment of liquor on n truck or automo
bile and tarrying off the-,whiskey at
the point of guns. The man of men who
transported the liquor across the line
from Maryland or Virginia have reliev
ed the “knock-#»ff men" of the respon
sibility for violating the law against
currying liquor, m Interstate commerce,
and Incidentally they usually relieve
Hike- bootleggey* us ecwiyth'- g of value '
op their
Thing* have ‘reached a pass where
bpotleggef* are filing complaints with
Washington po'ire reyord'ng the** He
predations. Home of them have even'
gone to their my r* her* of Congress ta i
discover whet recourse they have where
valuable consignments of liquor have '
been taken from them By marauding
bands who lay in wait and who know
the route* and usual hours of open-'
' tions.
Trsnsportaing whiskey by motor truck
and by automobile has become com
paratively safe, according to the boot- j
leggrrs, except for'the "knock-off men."
The State of Maryland, for Instance, no
longer puts any obstacle* in the way
of consignment* of liquor brought
through the State ky motor transpor
tation so long a# the drivers observe
all the regulations governing motor ve
hicles, Including speed restrictions. It
1 is understood that similar conditions
prevail in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
Thieves Buy Right of Way.
Liquor is moving over regular routes
from Florid* to New York. In many In
stances the right is bouflit and
paid for In advanrCny corrupting affi- !
errs of the law.
Now comr the "knock-off men,” the
newest and grehtept menace to the
peaceful pursuit Ti gainful orrupa
tion hy the bootlegger There have been
scores of hold-ups around Washington
of liquorladen vehicles, in which bullets
, sometimes fly, to the dismay of other
occupants of thr highways The sliua
tion has become so bad that the prin
ctpla bootleggers in some Instates
carry their own gunmen for protection,
while other daring spirits are finding
lucrative employment with bphd* of
‘ knock off men" operating slong the
well traveled bootleg routes of the East
ern seaboard
Inspector t’hffprd L. Grant, chief of

within the ufstnet of Columbia, "At
