Coxey has what he be Tc-vcs .to be the cr.iy solution of the pvo'hibtion question It is tli3 pas sage of an ir.itinU /1 and referendum act. through which the people wii! ; sve the power t: decide frr '.hem selves whether the "dry" amendment ???all stand. In this way, he de ci/ired, if the poop!.- ->f the United r--?.tes so desiud. an ani'-prchibiticn amendment null'ft in? the present ban could be passed. Coxey believes this country is on the verjpcc- cf a social revolution, which will be aided by enforcement of prnlnbiton. He is in favor of the passage of a bill to give every dis charged solder a bonus of $500, to be paid by a special issue of legal t3nui-r currency by the Treasury un der authority of an act of Congress. He cited Supreme Court decisions whereby Congress has power to grant this authority. General Coxey is working to have Congress pass an act providing for the issuance cf non-interest bearing bends by various communities to be used for improvement of public util ities. This, he believes, will give work to the thousands of unemployed , and relieve the present tenseness of the situation. He declared that if Congress "did ' not come across" he would issue a call for a march on Washington j which would be answered immedi- | ateh bv a million men.

VANDERB1LT WARNS AGAIN j Says Danger is Greater Now Than During War New York, June 5.?Frank A. Vanderlip, who resigned yesterday as president of the National City Dank, reiterated yesterday in an ad'^-ess before the Merchants' Association his warning uttered on his return ! from Europe recently that great J danger existed in the disorganized [ industrial condition of Europe.
