MONTANA STANDARD, BUTTE, SUNDAY MORNING, JUNE 5, 1932. BOLL-CALL BONUS VOTE ON JUNE 13 IN HOUSE ASSURED Report House of Hohenzollern to Return to Power in Germany Sweeps Country TO GET CONTROL, 1SSERT Newspaper Says Hinden. burg to Step Down in Favor of Wilhelm. BONUS CASH WOULD PUT POST-WAR AID TO VETERANS ABOVE $9,000,000,000 BERtilN, June report that former Crown Prince Friedrich Wilhelm would be summoned in a few months to head the government as "reichsvcrweser," or regent, swept through Germany today as the climax of a week packed with surprising political developments. Several credible sources were authority for this story that the House of Hohenzollern, rulers of Germany for centuries and ousted at the end of the World war, was to be recalled.

One of these authorities was the editor of one of the most Important newspapers In the chain of Dr. Alfred Hugenberg, leader of the nationalist party, I Hindcnliurf to Itelire. This editor, himself an influential nationalist, said unequivocally that President Paul Von Hlndcn- burg would retire October 2, his eighty-fifth birthday, to make way lor the crown prince. Substantially the same story was tent to the Berliner Volkszeilung, a democratic dally, by its Munich correspondent. The correspondent cited his authority as "one extremely impor- 'tant In the formation of a future Bavarian government." Tills person, the said, asserted that the return of the Hohenzollern's would mean an end to the independence of Bavaria.

"If Berlin Is preparing for a regency of the relch, nobody can seriously oppose Bavaria's claiming a similar right," the Munich Welt- Am-Sonntag will say tomorrow. "That the Bavarian regent can he no one but Crown Prince Rupprecht (of Bavaria) should no longer be modestly concealed. But he must beat the Hohenzollcrn's to it if the Prussian yearning for power threatens-Bavaria's independence." Official circles denied that President Von Hlndenburg hat! planned to step down in favor of Friedrich Wilhelm. Hand in hand with the reports of the restoration of the old royalty was a rumor tfiat the new cabinet would convene a national assembly to draft a new constitution. NEW re- 1 demption of soldier bonus certlfl- cates held by America's 4,250,000 world war veterans would raise to more than $2,000 the total paid to or spent in behalf of each, statistics show.

Already the expenditure stands at $1,500 pel- veteran, and about $550 would be added if the plan to redeem the certificates becomes cf- ectivc. Includes Various Services. The total includes compensation, llotmente and allowances, medical are and hospital care, vocational raining, insurance, administration, cans, and all other similar cxpcn- 1 lures. In round numbers, expenditures or veterans lo date total about Redemption of bomis ertlficates In full would add about total of Proponents of the redemption ilan argue that the release of so inich currency would furnish the iceded Impetus to business re- overy. Opponents Der.y Claims.

Opponents deny that the sum would be particularly helpful, and tolnt to the-Haturc of recent loans veterans to aid In business rc- overy. They further argue that a $2,000,00,000 loan would be difficult tor veil the government to float at the iresent time for this purpose. Especially vigorous is the opposl- lon to issuance of special money. present money Is backed by bout 66 per cent In gold; if $2,00,000,000 more fit currency were ssued that gold backing would de- line to about 4C per cent. The legal requirement Is 40 per ent, so the money would be legally upportcd, but If foreign countries.

Iways afraid of inflation, decided withdraw as little as $500,000,00 In gold, the ratio would drop to bout 39 per cent. This would be below the legal re- ulrcment and- the United States 'ould be off the gold standard as ow constituted. War's Place In Budget. The new federal budget allows bout $1,000,000,000 for veterans' diet of all kinds, including about 225,000,000 still being paid in pen- ions to civil and Spanish-Amcr- war veterans. Butte Briefs C.

HOW WAR GETS ITS SHARE OF AMERICA'S BUDGET UNCUE SAM HAS SPENr I5OO EACH ON HIS VETERANS REDEMPTION OP BONUS CERTIFICATES 'WOULD ABOUT- $SSO A.DDITIOMAL. TO EACH EX- SERVICE MAN Veterans' relict and other mllliary expenditures constitute the major pnrt of S.

government expenditures, as the circle above indicates. Below are figures reducing post-war expenses lo the basis of the individual veteran, figuring also ihc effect of possible redemption of bonus certificates. The total budget is $4,000,000,000, so that veterans' relief amounts to one-fourth of the annual expenditure. Other current military expenses total about $650,000,000. Interest and retirement of the public debt will cost another billion, the bulk incurred as a result of military operations.

Cost of War Estimated. Thus the total which may be ascribed to war in the new budget Is about $2,650,000,000, or 85 cent of all expenditures. The cost of the world war to the United states to date has been variously estimated from $25,000,000,000 to ten times that sum. Floral Park and Adjoining Areas Correspondent's Phono 2-3Q85.

A house petition to force a vote received its 145th signature, the total necessary before a roll call could be demanded, with the only "joker" lying in the fact that the house may not be in session June 13. In the meantime, metropolitan police said they had funds sufficient to feed the bonus marchers now in the district for only 48 more hours. They estimated their supplies would be exhausted by Sunday night if 1,000 more veterans ea route to Washington arrive on schedule. The serious food shortage led to Immediate plans to evacuate the groups that have settled in three camps and hourly were adding to their numbers.

The district commissioners decided to ask the marchers to leave Thursday, furnishing trucks (o transport them not to exceed 50 miles toward their homes. Those not accepting will have to fend for themselves so far as the commis- sioners are concerned. As their committees continued a door-to-door canvass at the house office building, the veterans themselves made ready for comrades reported from all parts of the country to be Oil the way. The reports of the new marchers yet to come made the position of the metropolitan police almost desperate. Monday all veteran marchers are to be cozicentrated in semi-open- air quarters nca: the army airport, Boiling field.

Garfield in his preparation of the perplexing prohibition planlc for the republican platform. Garfield called on the Idaho senator at the capital for a secret conference. 1 Borah is regarded as the spokesman of the prohibition faction of the party and in 1D2B wrote the rigid enforcement declaration. No conclusions were reached at today's meeting between Borah and Garfield and the conferences between the two will be resumed. Garfield conferred last night with other senate republican leaders.

There is increasing evidence that the party high command is looking for a resubmisslon plank acceptable to the prohibition leaders, but there is no indication that conclusion has been reached on Ihe text of the declaration. Borah has frowned upon the multitude of resubmisslon declarations so far advanced by the party leaders. He Is believed to hold the firm view that any referendum must come through the regular elections in voting upon members of congress.
