Hoover Faces Rift With Congress Over Pension Veto and Naval Treaty
Edward W. Pickard reports Congress overrode Hoover to pass the Spanish War veterans pension bill amid veto disputes. He notes Senate votes 61 to 18 against the veto and 28 Republicans among backers, while House opposed 208 to 14. Hoover defends the bill’s provisions on disability claims, reducing service periods, and venereal diseases. The piece covers naval treaty debates, Allen’s plan to fast‑track treaty action, and ongoing congressional probes, including Bishop Cannon’s contempt refusal, plus debates on Wickersham’s juriless trials and Pennsylvania’s wet platform. It also touches French and Italian naval tensions, British Palestine policy, and China’s civil conflict.
