Morse Says Velo Of Natural Gas Bill Not Likely Washington (U.R) Sen. Wayne Morse said today there is "no prospect" of a presidential veto if the Senate passes the con troversial natural gas bill. The Oregon Democrat said, "The Senate is the last real hope for preventing a raid upon the consumers of America." Morse expressed his opposi tion to the bill in a speech pre pared for the opening of the third week of Senate debate on the House-passed measure. Morse recalled that former President Truman vetoed the somewhat similar Kerr natural gas bill in 1950. No Prospect Seen j "Truman saved the gas con sumers of the nation," the sena tor said. "Unfortunately, there is no prospect for a presidential save, if it should become neces sary, this year." Morse said the division of the Senate on the bill is close and just as in 1950 a presidential veto could not be overriden. He said opponents still "may very well win" "their fight when the Senate reaches a vote on the bill, probably late this week. But supporters were claiming a six-to-ten vote edge. The bill would remove pro ducers of natural gas from direct fedejal regulation by the Fed eral Power Commission. Sup porters claim that by spurring competition, the bill will insure an adequate supply of gas. Op ponents say it will lead to in creased consumer prices.
