Senate Holds Patman Bonus Debate Amid Veto Fears
Washington reports President Roosevelt plans a veto of the Patman bonus bill soon after the Senate passed a two billion dollar inflationary funding measure. Speaker Burn said the House would likely override a veto while the Senate would sustain the President. Senator Thomas motioned to hold up action to secure extra votes for passage over a veto, aiming to force time for maneuvering. Administration backers expect Senate to sustain a veto and push the bill to the White House for final action.
