will be called upon to sustain or
override him.
Two-Thirds Vote Needed
A two-thirds vote is necessary
to override a veto and, with the
Republican leadership behind Mr.
Hoover, proponents of the bill are
expected to be defeated. The Ken
ate would not then be called upon
to act on the veto. The Houae will
begin formultatlon of another
veterans' bill aimed to overcome
administration protests.
The first such bill vetoed was
for relief of Spanish-American
veterans. Both Senate and House
overrode Mr. Hoover's wishes. He
repeated his objections to that
legislation after it was enacted
into law.
Republicans Back Hoover
In a aaucus last night of 151
Republicans, It was agreed to sup
port any veto of the bill by the
President.
Immediately after the House
convened. Speaker Long worth
recognized Chairman Royal C.
Johnson, of the veterans commit
tee, who requested that the House
unanimously concur In the Sen
ate amendments. He explained
he did not believe It would do any
KOod to send the measure to con
ference, t
Representative Rankin, ranking
minority leader of the veterans
committee, sought to have the
House consider the Senate amend
ments but Speaker Longworth up
held Johnson.
Rankin said: "Then, let r go."
That was dona,
Mr. Hoover today conferred
with five Republican congressmen
on the legislation. They were
Representatives Hoch. of Kansas:
Cole of Iowa, Reed of New York.
Strong ot Kansas, and Fish of
New York.
Bad Legislation
The Swick bill la alated to be
the basis for substitute legisla
tion. In a statement today, Rep
resentative Tilson, the Republic
an leader, aatd this would take
care of every World War veteran
who haa 25 per cent disability re
gardless ot the origin ot the dis
ability. He said tha bill to be
vetoed was "not only too liberal
to a special class of veterans, but
it also is discriminatory aaalnat
a much larger class ot equally
worthy and needy veterans."
