Senators Preparing Soldier Bonus Bill WASHINGTON, Dec. 18 dier bonus talk was heard again tot) day in the capital, outgrowth of unanimous Senate approval for rt measure authorizing from $200 to $500 mustering-out pay'for veterans of World War two.

Senator McParland (D-Ariz), who joined with Senator Maybank (p- SO in introducing a World War bonus bill for twice the compensa- i tion paid veterans after the lait war, said he had been promised'an early hearing by the Senate financje committee. This bill would provide eaqh veteran with a bond-cashable within three years after its issuance-)-- allowing $2 for each day of service in the armed forces in this country, I with a maximum of $1,000, and $2.50 daily for overseas service, with a maximum of $1,250. The recipient veteran could a periodic amount monthly for, educational purposes, for purchase: of a home or farm or for an trial venfure, or get the whole sum in cash after three years. He also could hold the bond until its 10-yepr maturity.

The bonus would be in addition to the proposed mustering-out allowance. As the discharge pay bill was sent to the House, it provides $500 for men and women who had served more than 18 months, overseas, for from 12 to seryl and $300 for less 'than 12 monfji: Those who served at home get $300 for 12 months or mc-r spent in uniform and $200 for Ijjss than a year.
