However; when questioned in re- gard to distributing a -.bonus at this1 time, the men indicated that they thought a later date would be more advisable. Of the men ques- tinepd, only thought that a bonus, if it is to be gfanted, should be piven out at this time. One suggestion put forth by K. Z. BOND, sophomore from in the form of interest-bearing bonds which M ould matagtt! fB five yeaw. fTTf , j ' . The Aggies outdid thc Umvenity students in their disagreement with Governor Jesters recent statement that the idea of a state bonus was un-Texan.95.5% of the men questioned here disagreed vrith Jester, while 90%- of those at the University thought the statement was unwarranted. | Various reasons were ! advanced by, those men not in fdvor of a bonus, the most common being that taxes were high enough now, w th- out thc additional burden of pay- ing for a veterans bonus being placed upon the people. Muiy thought the veterans of the re<ent war had already been well re- warded for their service. The many benefits of the GI Bill if Rights Were given as examples of public recognition of the veterans cortri- butions. |i | i j . Also, some men argued that the present inflation, causet by diigh wages and abundance 6f money, Would only be aggravated pouring of millions of dollars into the hands of Texas veterans. JACK M.

J Those men who thought], ' the bonus, if granted, should lie witp* held' for a while stated that they thought the majority of' the men did not actually need the moniey at this time.

in favor of- the bonus.However; when questioned in re­

gard to distributing a -.bonus at this1 time, the men indicated that they thought a later date would be more advisable. Of the men ques- tinepd, only thought thata bonus, if it is to be gfanted, should be piven out at this time.

One suggestion put forth by K. Z. BOND, sophomore from

students in their disagreement with Governor Jester’s recent statement that the idea of a state bonus was “un-Texan.” 95.5% of the men questioned here disagreed vrith Jester, while 90%- of those at the University thought the statement was unwarranted. ‘ |

Various reasons were ! advanced by, those men not in fdvor of a bonus, the most common being that taxes were high enough now, w th- out thc additional burden of pay­ing for a veteran’s bonus being placed upon the people. Muiy thought the veterans of the re<ent war had already been well re­warded for their service. The many benefits of the GI Bill if Rights Were given as examples of public recognition of the veterans cortri- butions. |i | i j. Also, some men argued that the present inflation, causet by diigh wages and abundance 6f money, Would only be aggravated pouring of millions of dollars into the hands of Texas veterans.

JACK M. FOLK ES. sOphomore from Del Rio, stated, “The money could be put to a better use if it were used to improve our school system and raise teachers' salaries”
