Congressman Burnett, Propo-
nent of Measure, to Ask for
Repassage.
LITERACY TEST IS THE SNAG
Advocates Feel Congress Will
Override Presidents Re-
cent Veto.

With the spirit of insurgency stead
lily spreading through the ranks OF
the Democratic majority in Congress
considerable interest is being mani
tested in the forthcoming efforts tc
pass the immigration bill over the
Presidents veto. Congressman Bur
nett of Alabama, author of the bill
has served notice that he will move
Thursday to have the House take VI
the measure, with a view to its i'm
mediate repassage. And he claims t.
have a comfortable margin over anc
to turn the trick.
Vetoed Twice.
Practically in the same form in
which 1t went before the President
yesterday, the immigration bill has
been vetoed twice before-the irst
time by President Taft, and during
the Sixty-third Congress by President
Wilson. Both times the basis of the
veto was the illiterary test.
Each succeeding time the measure
has been presented to Congress, how
ever, IL has been passed by larger
majorities in both the House and Sen
ate. Yet each time its advocates have
failed to muster the necessary two
thirds vote to override the veto.
Prospects Good
When the bill went before the Pres
ident this last time Il had behind II
the formidable majorities OF 30S to 81
in the House and 81 to Z in the Sen
ate. Unless there is a switch of at
least 90 votes in the House, with all
members present, the advocates OF the
measure would be sure to muster the
two-thirds required in that branch.
The "a votes in the Senate In favor OF
the bill just happened to constitute q
two-thirds OF the full membership.
The last time the attempt was made
to override a veto OF the bill there
was a sufficient switching of votes to
prevent this from being accomplished.
Friends OF Mr.. Wilson express conn
dence that the same will happen this
time. II IL does not, and IL Congress
does actually override the veto, II
will be a significant token OF the ex-
tent to which antagonism to the Pres
iden has spread.
