state commander of the American
Lesion. In an address at the National
Republican Club today called upon
ex-service men of the country to de-
feat the measure by concerted ne-
tion at the polls. He declared they
could sway 16,700,000 votes and
bring about a sweeping victory for
the soldiers’ bonus.
“By the Nelion plan,” he said, “the
married men with two children and
an income of $25,000 will have his
income tax reduced so that he will
save 4.4 per cent of his income, the
single man with 36000 income will
get a saving of only 1.11 per cent
and the married man with two
enilaren and a $2000 income will
get no direct saving at all, as com-
pared with the saving of $1,107 for
the man with a $26,000 income, it
. would require 20,547 married men
with two children each and an Ine
come of $4000 to save the amount
that one man with a $1,000,000 in-
come would save under the Mellon
plan. In the two lowest classes,
with net incomes of $2000 to $3000
which embrace 4.592.875 persons, the
saving will amount to only $17.50.5
