The Patman bill hinges on issuing new money to end tax needs. The president argues the debt today is limited to about 750 dollars, comparing it with government savings bonds due far in the future. House roll call shows party splits on overriding the veto, with seven Republicans voting to override and some Democrats sustaining.
