Washington, July 15. The ad- s
ministration won its battle i
congress today when the senate,
responding to President Hard- "
ing's recent request,' recommit
ted the soldier bonus bill indefi
nitely to the finance committee.
The . vote for recommital was
47 to 29,' and was interpreted by
democrats to mean the "death'
of the. bill but by republican
leaders to mean postponement
for only 'a few months with no
substantial Joss to war veterans,
beneficiaries.
Both parties divided on the roll
call, nine republicans voting, against.
while eight democrats joined the
bulk of republicans for recommitted.
Republican losses on the vote were
offset exactly by democratic acces
sions, as two more republicans were
pairedgainst recommittal and three
more democrats fqr the motion.- .

of recommital marked the closing de

to the scenes which followed the roll

that there being no bill or

There were many tense moments,
especially when Senator McCumber

however, stepped between them. This
occurred when Senator Reedfi refer

that the personalities did not reflect

finally agreed to this, Senator Reed
saying he did not wish any reflection

"the outside is -.so large that it is

"I can say 1 with absolute assu

said, "that this bill will be enacted
