Mondell Opposes Bond Plan for Soldiers Relief
Wyoming Republican Leader Mondell told the House Ways and Means Committee a bond issue to pay adjusted compensation to former servicemen would endanger a panic and inflate prices. He urged heavy taxes or a consumption levy and opposed a broad relief bill now. Rep Swope urged extra pay for all service members, estimating a $4.3 billion cost. Mondell warned such plans would inflate currency and tax burdens. Senate debates mirrored partisan splits on soldier relief as Crichfield and Garner weighed in.
