Asked for Extra Relief
WASHINGTON. March 5 Payment
of a lump sum of $500 to each person'
who served in (he military or naval
forces of the United States was urged
before the house ways and means com
mittee today by Marvin Gates Sperry.1
rational president of tho Private Sol
diers and Sailors legion.
He opposed proposals of representa
tives of other soldier organizations
for adjusted compensation varying
frern $00 to ?50 for every month of
service, and said the services of
000,000 young Americans never could
be paid'by "the skimping, miserly ad

The wUnestlpTaTed' t1i?iRfcfiund-
ing of $100.000,000 annual pa5''mjnt of
interest due on foreign obligations
proved that the government was not
"weak financially and could give finan
cial relief to all former service men.'
Spcrry charged that J. H. Halper. a'
member of the legislative committee
of the Rank and File Veterans' asso
ciation, was a Socialist and communist'
and "had tried to lilrn over the Pri
vate Soldiers and Sailors legion to the
communist party of New York."
Letters from the Soldiers, Sailors
and Marines Protective association of
New York City, asking the amalgam
ation of all soldier bodies were read
by the witness who said this organiza
tion was raided and its literature
dumped into the streets.
"What proof have you that Halper
is a Socalist?" asked Chairman Ford
ney. "He admllted it lo mo before wit
nesses," Sperry replied.
Opposition Develops.
Flat opposition to financial relief
legislation for former service men, the
first'to be expressed by a former sol
dier, was asserted yesterday before
the house ways and means committee
by Walter W. Eurns, of Green Point,
N. Y.. a former artillery captain. A
"money handout" to the ex-service
men, he said, "would simply be thrown
away."
All soldiers would take a money
grant if congress authorized it, Burns
I r.hl I li n onmntlllan namniiinlili'n
Rainey, Democrat, of Illinois, replied
that this was true even of members ct
congress, "who talk and vole against
salaries and mileage allotments, but
always take ihe money."
Burns contended that the satisfac
tion of having fought to defend the
country was sufficient reward.
"If the war had continued two weeks
more, every American soldier would
have been so tickled they wouldn't
want any bonus," he added.
None Asks Relief.
Representative Garner, Democrat, of
Texas, said not a former service man
in his district had written In favor of
the proposed financial relief.
"They don't know you are in con
gress then," a representative of a sol
dier organization, seated In the com
mittee room Interjected.
Even the American Legion is divid
ed on the question, Burns said.
Reclamation of arid lands in the
west and south with preferential right
to all former service men to entry
on existing drained public lands was
urged by a delegation headed by Rep
resentative Smith, Republican, Idaho.
More than 150,000 men have already
signified their desire for homesteads,
but are without financial means to
obtain them, George R. Maxwell of
St. Louis, told tho committee.
Benefits to soldiers under adequate
land grant bills would bo far better
than any bonus or financial aid, Max
well said.
Representative Johnson, Republi
can, of South Dakota, introduced a
resolution requesting tho opinion of
Secrotary Baker on the proposgd ex-j
tra bonus for former service men. J
