farmer-labor member, Shipstead of
Minnesota. All 27 voting to sustain
the president came from the demo
cratlc stde.,
. Stirring Scenes at Vote
Stirring scenes accompanied the
vote. . Opponents of the veto Ignored
all pleas by the democratic leaders
that such action might shake confi
dence in .President Roosevelt at a
time when It was needed.
Ann6uncement of the vote by Vice
President Garner brought cheers,
shouts and applause from the crowd
ed galleries. Despite warnings from
the chair thfte had been previous
outbursts both on the senate floor
and In the crowds above.
Washington received the news with
some' excitement. It meant that
$26,000,000 extra would be given fed
eral employees between now and July
1, part of It retroactive until Febru
ary 1. In addition to this five per
cent restoration of the government
pay-cut, another five per cent adding
another $126,000,000 will go into ei-;
feet July 1. Much of this money will
be spent in the capital. f
Wait F. It.'s Answer
While official Washington listened i
for Mr. Roosevelt's answer, it recalled j
that he had declared the bill went
$228,000,000 beyond his budget estl-1
mates with no provision as to how !
this sum would be obtained.
' In 'his veto message he inveighed
chiefly against the principle of a
veterans "service pension." This he
said the bill set up for Spanish
American war veterans. He had ob
jected also to the provisions restoring
29,000 world war veterans to the rolls
at 75 per cent of their former com
pensation without review of their
cases to determine if the disabilities
were of service origin.
There was complete silence when
Carter Glass, the Virginia democrat
who has opposed the money pollc'es
of the president, took the floor.
Stands by President
He declared the president was cor
rect in vetoing the bill, and that he
had never wavered from the princi
ples he thought right In his dealings
with the veterans question.
Then, his voice trembling, Glass
said he had two boys "over there."
He added:
"I'd disinherit them if they ever
accepted a dollar from the govern
ment although they wero in the front
line trenches."
Senator Cutting (R.-N.M.), Senator
Robinson (R.-Ind.) and Stelwer
(R.-Ore.) led the fight for over-riding
the veto. They contended the veter
ans' review boards did not deal fairly
with veterans, and that the presi
dent's action in restoring them to the
mils ntrr trier rnvlnw wmilri. linHor av
lstiner regulations, mean that thev all I
would be stricken off again.
