Presidential Veto Likely To Stand On Loan Stocks Bill
Washington Aug 26 House members predicted no override of President Roosevelt veto on a bill to freeze government loan stocks of wheat and cotton and relax penalties for over quota production. Rep Cochran Democrat Missouri and Rep Michner Republican Michigan said the veto would stand and no vote would occur, noting the bill passed 176 to 162. They contended Senate action was unlikely to rescind the veto, as the bill remained a house measure the Press refused to sign.
