Bill Planned
To Replace Measure
Killed by Veto
House Roods Committee
ToOffer Proposal With
Same Main Provisions

The House Roads Committee de-
cided today to introduce a new de-
fense highway bill to replace the
1920, 900, 900 measure vetoed by Presi-
dent Roosevelt.
Chairman Cartwright was au-
thoriZed to call the committee to-
gether for this purpose after an ex-
pected recess, in September or Oc-
tober, with indications that the new
bill would contain principal pro-
visions of the vetoed measure.
At general strategy session, some
members suggested that the COM
mittee reintroduce the Identical bill
today that lost by a two-vote margin
in the House attempt yesterday to
override the presidential Veto The
House voted, 25l TO 1913, to override
the veto, with two-thirds majority
required The Senate had voted, 81
to 10, TO override.
Presidents Move Criticized.
Both Democrats and Republicans
were said to have agreed, however,
that this might displeaSe some of
their supporters. The chief COM
plant heard in the committee was
that the President sought to retain
entire control over all Federal roads
funds in order to ignore congress
sional apportionment on the basis
of population.
I'VE lost this fight Representa-
tive Cartwright said, but we will not
abdicate from the principal OF Fed
eral highway aid"
On June President Roosevelt
asked Congress to authorize $780,
100000 for access roads, to be used
in areas specified by the War or
Navy Departments or Office of Pro-
duction Management, and $25 .0OO,-
900 to be used to strengthen bridges
or widen highways in key areas,
without regard to the usual Federal
aid highway apportionment formula.
Congress approved $50, 5000 for
access roads in the vetoed bill. and
the President said this was mot OBJ
jectionable" but he objected par
ticularly to SIPS, 100000 to be used
to strengthen bridges and correct
other DEFICIENCIES, with the funds to
be apportioned under the Federal
Aid Act.
Sum Held insufficient.
He said it was quite possible that
the most critical DEFICIENCIES in some
areas" could not be corrected, even
with the sum increased from $25,-
900 900 to SIPS, 100000.
The Senate meanwhile got new
bill on file. Chairman Mcclellan of
the Senate Post Office and Post
Roads Committee offered substi-
tute measure drafted with the in
tention of overcoming Mr.. Roose-
velt's criticisms of the original
measure.
1t substituted s1O0,OO0,0O0 for the
SIPS, 10000 900 originally provided for
strategic highway networks, lowered
the amount for access roads from
s15O,OO0 900 to 100000, 900 and de-
leted entirely the original bills S1O,-
100000 ALLEGATION for the conStruc-
ton of airplane landing strips along
the highways.
The bill also omitted the vetoed
measures provision allowing max
imum of s25,Oe0,000 for emergency
repairs. ..-.

Japanese Author Addressed Group

Haru katsui Isligaki, Japanese writer and lecturer, spoke before the members of the Waterbury Womens Club yesterday afternoon. Dressed in the traditional costume of her coun- try, Mrs. Ishigaki described her background, as a member of one of the oldest and foremost families of Japan. Through the indulgence of her father, she was allowed to re. ceive advanced education, 6 privi- lege seldom accorded to women. Because of family objections in this respect, she was finally sent to the United States, where she attended the George Washington University. She is the wife of the Japanese artist, Eitaro shigSki.
 Mrs. Ishigaki deplored the present condition of her countrymen, stat ing that all the liberties obtained by them, have been lost. The In. tellectuals, because of their anti-war policies, are being suppressed. Con. Sequently the nation is reverting to barbarian. The leaders, in their aggressive self1shness are driving the country to an internal dissen- sion, which increases with each re. Striction.
