In the House. a message from the
President was received vetoing the
Postoffice appropriation bill because
Of objections to the Senate amend
ment extending the time OF using
the pneumatic tube service until the
question should be investigated by
the Interstate Commerce Commission.
The President said that the tubes
were practically useless, quite un-
necessary and in fact a hindrance to
the work OF the department" He also
spoke OF them as out OF date, and
summed the arguments used by the
Postmaster General for getting nd
OF them as an obstruction to the
service, not worth having at any
price.
An attempt to pass the bill over
the veto on motion of Mr.. Stevenson
failed with only 113 Affirmative votes
to 1s7 nays. Having the Postoffice
bill, without this clause, ready to
pass in emergency without the tube
section, the House passed It accord
inEly and sent it at once to the Sen
