Roosevelt vetoed Patman bonus bill as Senate overrides
President Roosevelt publicly vetoed the Patman bonus measure in a joint session, urging that blending veterans benefits with relief work confuses the nation’s aims. Despite his veto, Congress quickly overrode it 322 to 95, sending the bill back for further action as administration plans new measures unfold.

A historical sketch recalls the grand review of the armies in Washington in 1865, led by Grant, with Lincoln's assassination looming. It notes the first public honors for living soldiers and missing comrades, the emotional spectacle, and the vast mobilization of veterans from the Army of the Potomac, Army of the James, and Army of the Tennessee.
