tempest in a teapot, 1t is pointed out
 Will Not Make Good Threat

For these reasons. the best opinion Is that the President will not make good his threat and rivers and har- bors will profit in accordance with the expressed opinion of Congress. At the same time, it Is known that the President, hopeful of being able to present positive proof of an eco- nomical administration, was deeply incensed when rivers and harbors ad- vocates, in both houses, rode roush- shod over his budget commission.
 The matter is of great importance to the majority of states and espe- cially to southern states. It was the practically solid vote of representa- lives of southern states in Congress that made the big appropriation pos sible.

HARDING WILL NUT
 VETO WATERWAYS FUND, LEADE: E:RS SAY
Executive Cannot Cut Out Rivers and Harbors Appro- priation Without Killing
 Entire Army Measure
WASHINGTON BUREAU |
 TIRE AGERG}SesAID !

The rrevailong sentiment ia Com PfSess is that President Harding will not attempt to perpetuate his threat to ignore the action of Congress in appropriAting S5S, for rivers and harbors thus smashing the limit set by the budget commission
 There is no question but that. the President regrets tho action of Con- gross. He has said so publicly It is equally tr1re that were 1t possible, he would avail himself of an opportunity to veto one section of a bf1l and leave ether sections intact. But as he can not kill the rivers and harbers sec tien without killing the entire army apq,.o pi iatien bilb it is not regarded ton to rivers and harbors carry him so far afieid.
 Might Prove Unpopular
 It has been intinated that the President has been advised that he, as comnlanaer~in-chief of the army, may instruct the Secretary of War not to release for rivers and harborS any amount in excess et the s27,000, too allowed by tho budget. That the President has legal authority to set aside 8 law of Congress Is a mooted question, even when the adninistra- ton of that law comes under his jar- isdsction as conmander-in-chief of the army. It is known that the Pres ident has given this point considera- ton. The intdmatton that he would exercise authority Is believed, how ever. to have been a -feeier>" If that Neaaef is accurate, the President Is now satisfied, from the reports which hare come to him, that his contem- plated action would be exceedingly unpopular.
 Were the President to limit the ap- plsopriation, to S27,00O,0o0, it is point cd out that very large section of the country would become highly in censed during the fisesA year 1923-24- During that, fiscal year national pol itics will be at red hot heat The idea obtains, therefore, that the President will not take any action which would rebound disadvantageously to the re- publican party. If he does not hold the appropria ton exactly to the bud get figure, he will necessarily favor some projects at the expense of others, and his savings would be only few million dollars, an amendment too small by comparison to make worth while the creation of even a
