in an unusually intense feud be
tween the House and Senate, which
threatened to delay adjournment.
The World War veterans pension
bill and two other important mea-

them are being sent back to the

The pension bill carried the in
creased compensation rates proposed
by the Democrats in the Walsh
Connallv amendment adopted late
Yesterday in the Senate by vote
Of 81 to 26 over the objections Of
President Hoover and the House.
As written by the Senate, the bill
included much to which the Prcsi-
dent found objection in the bill he
vetoed a week ago. It's average
annual cost for the next five years
is estimated conservativelv at $136,
600 900 The Presiednt has indicat
cd he believes that is too much. The
Senate bill contains the clause al
lowing veterans who contracted
vencreal diseases in the service to
collect disability allowances, a pro
vision the President vigorously op-
posed in his veto message on the
old bill.
Instead of granting the allow
anccs from $l2 to $40 a month, be
ginning with disabilities of p pee
cent or more, as was provided in the
House bill, the measure now pro-
vidcS allowances from so to 500,
