Mayor Eddie McCloskey of Johnstown unveiled a "bonus city" concept at a meeting with B E F leaders, proposing bonus funds be pooled to build cottages and factories for World War I veterans.

Newlin and B E F officials voiced cautious interest as the plan drew attention across the organization with 46 states reporting commanders and 197 camps established.
