It is said iqm. Treasury experts have supplied the President with information show-- ing that the pending Bonus bill will exceed all estimates, and for that rea-- son may recommend a veto. The Pos-- tal Salary bill, which will require ap-- prorimately $80,000,000 annually, may be turnmed down at :the White House for the sime reason.

It will be mneo-- essary to remodel the two drafts in vrder to meet the approval of both Houses. There are certain features of these n:.easures which are objectina-- able to the President, and the possi-- bility of his veto of the tak revision measure has provoked considerable alarm. It has been said that the Pres-- ident as a condidate Aor re--election may take the tax issue to the country for settlement at the polis. By that it is meant that Mr. Coolidge, in the évent he finds the veto essential, will go before the people asking for their support foor the Mellion bill which Congress rejected,. No doubt the Dem-- ocrats would welcome an issue of this kind because they feel that the ac-- ceptance of many of their basic tax ideas by Congress proved the worthi-- ness of thei rplans. The development of a political fight along these lines will depend, it is said, upon Mr. Cool-- idge's acceptance or rejection of the completed tax bills. The question of a veto cropped up this week with the return of a Pension bill.

'The preperty owners, most of whom have summer homes along the Fox river, also protested against the town of McHenry dumping This is not to say that one cannot get a drink of bear or whisky in Joliet nor is it to say that "Da«i" Rompel has completed his efforts to dry up Will county, He still stands before the wet element as a danger, and his mysterious ways have never beén found out. ~He isn't saying much, but he seems to be able to get prohibition agents when he wants them, ._.%_ 1, when sixty--one of the ninet "solt drink parlors" of~Joliet their doors.
