Those who attended the conference at the White House were Senators EiOdge (Mass.), Republican leader; McCumber (N. D.), chairman of the finance committee; Watson (Ind.), and Curtis (Kan.). The conference began with an explanation of the amendments made to the house bill by the finance committee. Senator McCumber outlined the amendmmts, all of a minor nature. The conference had been ha progress only a short time when the President- confronted the committee with the query: "Where are yoo going to get the money?" Committee members pointed oat that the cost of the bonus during the next year would be only $73,000,000, ;whlch they thought could be easily met by savings in governmental expenditures. They further explained that the peak of the cost would not be reached until 1938, when the cost tor the year will be something over $300,000,000. The President is reported to have remarked that "this isn't much of a bonus bill," referring to the failure to find a definite means to raise the money.

Chicago, May 10.--An appeal for a relief l'und of $250,000 to mitigate the immediate sufferings of the victims of the recent floods of the Mississippi and Illinois rivers has been sent oui by the .American Bed Cross to the chairmen of Red Cross chapters In Illinois. "A careful survey of the devastated area," reads the appeal, "reveals the fact that there are in 16 counties In the state more than 1,200 families homeless and in need, 200,000 acres of crops ruined and more than 750 fanners without feed for their stock or the means to procure it. "In view of these facts. It Is *he judgment of this committee that $250,- 000 is necessary, either in cash or Its equivalent in seed grain and stock feed, to place those destitute on a self-supporting bads. "In appreciation of the acute condition existing in the farming districts affected by the floods, the Illinois Agricultural association, the farm bureaus, the farmers' Institute and the agricultural extension service of the University of Illinois have enthusiastically offered their eo-operartion in collecting both funds and grain throughout the state." This appeal has been sent out as a result of a meeting In Springfield a week ago of representatives of the local chapters of the American Red Cross to form an Illinois Red Cross disaster relief committee, of which H. M. Merriam of Springfield was made chairman, Adjt. Gen. Carlos E. Black treasurer - and Walter Davidson, ex-, ecutlve. The appeal has been s?nt not alone to local Red Cross chairmen, but also to all the mayors, chambers of commerce, banks and churches throughout the state.. This makes the Illinois Red Cross relief committee the single channel for the disbursement of funds, thus providing harmony and corelatlon In the direction of expenditures, and preventing duplication of giving.

D., Who had two loads of steers on ihe market. According to Yaggie, "Scotty," a fourteen-monthsrold collie, belonging to Ernest Hani of Yankton, owner of the farm which Yaggie rents, drove the cattle to Yankton, nearly six miles. The steers were loaded at eleven o'clock at night and at 1.90 o'clock the train left Yankton. A short stop was made at Gayvllle and Yaggie thinks another was made at Vermillion. When Yaggie stepped from the train at Elk Point, 41 miles from Yankton, at four o'clock, "Scotty" met him at the caboose and barked its welcome sharply. It was apparent that the dog had run all the way, as he was covered with mud and showed signs of hard travel. There were no cars in the train upon which the dog could have ridden, said Yaggie. "Scotty" was locked in the station at Elk Point so that he would not attempt the remainder of the journey to Sioux City. The dog was sent back to Yankton by express.
