House blocks veterans' pay rise clash with Senate vote
Washington U M The House refused to join the Senate in approving higher veterans allowances desired by the administration. A Roosevelt veto had been promised if higher Senate figures passed. Earlier the House approved only a 10 percent restoration of cut federal pay by July 1, not 15 percent like the Senate. The next step rests with the Senate as both chambers may seek a compromise. A separate vote on the Veterans program failed 174 to 20 with Speaker Rainey voting no.
