C.J. Balfe has the power to veto Incidental Fee Committee transfers from unal located money reserves, accor ding to an advisory opinion by the ASUO Constitutional Com mittee Alan Contreras, an ASUO comptroller, asked the com mittee to interpret a portion of the constitution regarding presidential veto powers The passage in question provides that the president has the right to veto "subsequent allocations from unallocated reserves, where such accounts are not broken down by program in the ASUO budget. "I think the wording is a total mess,'' Contreras said Ken Packman, a former ASUO comptroller, said the clause means the president cannot veto allocations from unallocated reserves to existing funded programs. Contreras argued that the clause allows the president such veto power but denies the executive veto power concern ing the release of money from “reserve” accounts. The committee, in a una nimous decision, said the president can veto transfers from unallocated reserves and that the other interpretation "runs counter to the clear wor ding and intent of the rest of S4 5 " "To hold that the President does not have the power to veto allocations from unallocated reserves would remove him from the budgeting process with regard to those monies,” the opinion read In another development, committee chairer Karsten Rasmussen said Lori Heiron imus, committee member, is not in school and that Balfe would be asked to appoint a new member Panel reviews anti-nuclear plan A convocation exploring the consequences of nuclear war will feature a videotaped presentation of retired Admiral Noel Gaylor at 3:30 p m in Room 123 Science I.
