McCumber Bonus Bill Favored by Finance Committee

The McCumber soldier bonus plan was favorably reported by the Senate finance committee on Wednesday with a 9 to 4 vote. The Smoot plan aimed to replace it with broader compensation forms but was defeated 2 to 5 as three Democrats Simmons, Walabard, and O opposed it, while Republicans Smoot, McLean, Frelinghuary, and Dillingham voted against the Smoot proposal. Senator McLean noted factional tensions among Republicans over the vote. Simmons, speaking for the Democratic minority, said they reported a McCumber bill only to the act promptly and did not favor the measure, arguing it would offer little benefit to former service members and preserve the right to legislate.
