Washington, Nov. 5.--Presiden
Harding was assailed in the senate to
night by Senator Stanley, Democrat
Kentucky, for what he described a
the "order" given for the senate to rc
commit the soldier bonus bill.
Senator Stanley declared there wa
only one power on earth that coul
have made the President "turn hi
back" on the 1,000,000 former servic
men. That power, he said, was "th
silent insidious pitiless power of Marn
mon; that know what it could; the
understand its authority; the ring c
thy. dollar."

the soldiers' bonus hill in full swin

a means of financing the "five-way" I
adjusted compensation plan. Should <
this be rejected, Senators Simmons, of
North aCrolina, and Walsh, of Massa
chusetts, Democrats, intnded to offer
their propakiion to pay the bonus out
of the interest on the foreign debt.
After the bonus issue is disposed of,
leaders on both sides expect rapid
progress to be made on the tax re
viion bill with possible passage of the
measure Monday night. Debate on
the hill today was enlivened by an
attack on Secretary Mellon by Sena
tor La Fallette, Republican, Wiscon
I sin, and a defense of the treasury
chief by Senator Watson, Republican,
Indiana.
"We have heard here from day to
- lay," said Senator La Follette, "that
t wealth defies the government, that it
will not pay its taxes, but tale offi
t cial head of this government has laid
- it down as a proposition-and I am
going to bring it before the country
s that we can not make wealth pay and
- that we might as well accept that
proposition; that we have got to es
s tablish a system of taxation that will
1. make the people pay that wealth will
s not bear its share. That is the dcc
e laration and it comes impudently and
e brazenly from the head of the fical
- department of this government. He
t ought to be retired from his place for
f making that sort of declaration."
Senator Watson took sharp issue
r with Senator La Follette's intelnreta
g tion of Mr. Mellon's testimony before
y the finance committee when the tax
e bill was being drafted.
S"The Secretary," declared Senator
\atson, "did not say and the Secre
it tary did not mane and I do not think
i, that any possible construction placed

cad him to say that he was in favor
)f the evasion of taxation by the
rich.
"It is not conceivable that the See
retary o fthe Treasury, an official of
the government, w.ould come before b
1 high committee of congress and ad- C
vrocate the evasion of taxation and r
therefore I can not but conclude that u
the construction placed upon the testi- :
mony by the Senator from Wisconsin c
was far-fetched and put in for pur
poses of debate."
Senator La Follette was arguing for
his amnedment proposing that tax re
turns be made open to bublic inspec
tion, which was rejected, 35 to 33. 1
The Wisconsin Senator reserved the
right to resubmit the amendment
when the bill is reported out of the
committee o fthe whole.
The senate olsa rejected, 39 to 28,
another amendment to Mr. La Follette
providing for taxes on estates rang
ing from 1 per cent on the first $50,- t
000 to 50 per cent on estates over
$30,000,000. Another amendment by
the same senator was accepted. It
requires taxpayers in making returns
to list tax-exempt securities held by
them.
Should the tax bill be passed by
the senate Monday it would not reach
the house until Wednesday as that
body adjourned today until that time.
Leaders there plan to take it up
Thursday with a view of having it
sent to conference.
