President Coolidge again has in
formed congressional leaders that

era ns-they can muster the necessary
twothirds majority to enact it over
his veto.
With the Treasury already expect
ing a deficit of $21 900 900 next year.
Mr.. Coolidge takes the position that
the Spanish American War bill and
the proposed measure for increasing
Civil War pensions to a total of $685.
600 900 annually would create Il con-
tinuing deficit and throw the budget
out of balance.
The Spanish war veterans pension
bill was discussed by President Cool
idge today with Carmi A. Thompson
of Ohio. national commander of the
veterans, but there was no definite
indication whether the measure would
he signed or vetoed.
Thompson said the President realiz-
ed the Spanish War veterans had not
been treated on a par with others, and
was looking for some way to pay. the
increase sought.
The bill would make total payment
in some classes as high as $50 a
month.
