There is no sound reason and It Is not good legislative pro cedure to fie the bonus issue anil the prohibition Issue up. In one Congrees bundle. This Is what Is done when new Congress bills provide, as they do, for legalizing light wines and beer under the Eighteenth Amendment and at the same time for a heavy tax on their sale, the proceeds to be used In payment of a soldier bonus. The Issues Involved In these measures thus dovetailed In Con gre«« are separate and distinct. The prohibition question is as Clearly one explicit thing as the bonus question is one explicit thing. They should not be Joined together; they should be kept apart. I ; I !j i If Congress wants to take up the matter of the sale of light wines and beer and If the American voters want to take up the matter. It should be taken up as a thing of Iteelf for treatment by Iteelf. If Congress wants to take up the matter of a bonus and If the American voters want to take up the matter. It Should be taken up as a thing of Itself for treatment by Itself. If Congress should vote and the President should accept a bonus mea«ure and It Congress should vote and the President should accept a law for the sale of light wines and beer. It would be In order for Congress, the taxing power and the appropriating power. »0 enact that the bonus should be paid out of taxes on light wines andbeer, as It wçuld be In order for Congress to enact. If It saw fit, that the bonus, after becoming a legal fact, «hould be psld out of the proceeds of a general sales tax or any othar tax. But as there Is no relationship between a bonus and prohibi ting. a, there can be no natural relationship between them, they ought not to stand or fall together, either In Congress or at the polls; they ought not to be settled together, either In Congress or at the polls. They should be treated separately, each on Its merits, each standing or falling separately, as the vote of Congress decides or a, the vote of the country decides.—Editorial, • * . • * ( j I/viand's Rail Patrol ?
