Washington, Jan. - Veto by
President Wilson today OF the farm
ers' relief bill to revive the War

almost Immediately by a vote OF 80
10 in the Senate to make the bill
law despite executive disapproval
The House will take UP the measure
tomorrow. Predictions were general
that it would duplicate the Senates
action and thus place the bill on the
statute books.
President Wilson, i'll lengthy veto
message, declared he withheld his
approval of the bill because the War
Finance Corporation was war
credit agency, not desirable or need
ed in peace-time. He said that it
would exert no beneficial influence
on the situation-would raise false
hopes among the very people who
would expect most and would be
hurtful to the natural and orderly
processes Of business and finance"
The legislation, the president also
said, would result in additional
credit burdens and the government.
he asserted. should not be called
, upon further to finance private bust
ness at public expense" Referring
TO widespread demand for abolish
ment OF war agencies and removal
of governmental influence from bust :
ness. the president said he had SYM
pathy with this view and added that
the nation should resume it's usual
business methods"
Upon reading of the veto message
,, in the Senate. Senator Underwood
OF Alabama. Democratic leader
! urged its immediate consideration
for which unanimous consent was Sc
cured by Chairman Gronna, of the
agriculture committee, which report
ed the bill. Senator Underwood fol-
lowed with the only address made
declaring that financial distress now
| was greater than during the war and
that he felt confident of wise ad-
ministration Of the proposed law
would cause mo undue drain on the
treasury"
On the Senate roll call, % Demo
Gratis were joined by "a Republicans
in overriding the veto.

We're two Democrats, Senators Gerry
| of Rhode Island and Thomas OF
Colorado and three Republicans, Ell
kins and Sutherland of West Virgin

| but withdrew their votes on account
| Of having paired. Senator Penrose
! Of Pennsylvania. a Republican lead
er, was paired but announced thai

leader, announced later that 1t would
| be taken up tomorrow at the opening
! Of the House, but without any def
mite arrangements for u vote. The
House passed the bill by a vote OF
212 to 81, or much more than the
| necessary two thirds majority. Many
| of the negative votes were cast b!
Republicans.
