In 1852 President Arthur vetoed the
river and harbor bill because II carried
total Of sie. 900, 900. which the presi-
dent regarded as excessive. Congress
promptly passed the bill over his veto
Since that time there has been an aver
age Of one river and harbor bill passed
every two years. Mr.. Cleveland allowed
one to become a law without bis sigma
ture, but no president has ever tried
since Arthur's time TO override the Will
Of congress In the matter OF such APP
preparations
Yerr after year the totals have In
creased, until at The beginning OF tho
twentieth century the house OF repre-
sentatives proposes TO authorize an eN-
psnditure Of 500, 900, 900 for river and
harbor improvements, upward OF one
third OF which will be available during
the next fiscal year, and the remainder
40 be expended under the continuation
