 The chief executive, in the opin- ion of friends, was confident that popuIar reaction to the overriding of his veto of the independent off, fees bill by the house would have the desired effect and that he would be sustained when the sen- ate voted to-day on the measure. 1 On his first holiday since brief spell at Warm Springs, Ga, last fall MT Roosevelt was anxious to get to sea as the guest of Vincent As tor. He. is looking for complete rest and relaxation with frequent fishing excursions to relieve the monotony of cruising.
 The schedule calls for him to be absent from the White House until April z. On the evening of that day he plans to. be back for the semi-annual Gridiron club dinner.
 During his sea-going vacation MT Roosevelt will be in constant touch with Washington develop ments through radio reports re- layed to the Nourmahal from tenn porary White House offices at Mi ami that will be established to- night by Secretary Marvin Fl. Me Intyre.
 Aboard the Nourmaha1, MT Roosevelt will have as sailing com- panions the men who accompanied him on two previous cruises. The party included Astor, George St l George Tuxedo, N. r.; Dr Lewlie | "oht1n AIo. Knrraif RnnSn- welt, son of the late T. R., and Judge Frederick Kernochan, New York city.
 Two navy destroyers, the Ellis and the Tatnall were at Jackson vile to accompany the presidential yacht. They will act as escorts and communication ships.
 On the trip southward MT Roosevelt was accompanied by Governor Dave Sholtz of Florida.

A sizeable number in the house had been for the bill from the first many republicans voted for 1t to embarrass the president, and other members felt the ultimate decision should be passed on to the senate because 1t originated many of the disputed provisions.
