"Despite all the pressure on the congress from the president, the army general staff, a last-minute appeul by the secretary of state, and all the British propagand ists," he said in a statement, "the house passed the bill by only one vote. "Some of the members of con gress were absent and not voting. Some failed to record their votes.
