WASHINGTON. Jan. 1 </P) _
Frank L Belgrano. jr commander
of the American Legion, declared
today it would press for immediate
payment of the soldiers' bonus de-
spite the opposition of President
Roosevelt.
In a statement issued at Legion
headquarters here, lie contended
that the Roosevelt anti-payment
le'.ter yesterday contained one of
the strongest arguments in favor
of the immediate payment of the
adjusted service certificate "I have
ever read."
Reference To Debts
The reference was to the presi-
dent's reminder that when veter-
an's borrowed 50 percent of the
I *RCC value of the certificates in
| 1931 it was used largely to dis-
charge their debts.
“It is only reasonable to sup-
iHise Ihe same results would be ob-
lained today when the balance due
is paid." said Belgrano. In a let-
ter to Garland R Farmer, head of
tlie American Legion post at Hen-
derson, Texas, the president declar-
ed the subject wps fraught with
misunderstanding, that the obliga-
tion was not due until 1945. anti
that the certificates were all the
assets many veterans had to leave
to their families.
