Congressman Knight of Akron today went to-the house ways and means committee with the suggestion that the bonus be paid in non-negotiable securities, bearing interest at 4 per interest and principal payable in 20 annual installments.

His refusal to permit the to he brought vestArfiav aftwl the president had withdrawn active opposition to the measure and in the! face of the urgent recommendation of house leaders has aroused bitterness, much of which is directed against the speaker for arbitrary exercise of power.
