SENATE OVERRIDES ROOSEVELT VETO ON INTEREST RATES Measure to Extend Emergency Rates on Farm Loans Enact- ed Despite His Opposition Washington, July 22. — (#) — The senate enacted over President Roose- velt’s veto Thursday a measure to extend “emergency” interest rates on farm loans. It voted to over-ride the veto 71 to 19, more than the two-thirds ma- jority required. The house previously had over-ridden Mr. Roosevelt's veto, 260 to 98. The new law extends for one year the 3% per cent rate on approxi- mately $2,000,000,000 of federal land bank bonds and provides for a 4 per cent rate the following fiscal year. It also reduces from 5 to 4 per cent for two years the interest on about $800,000,000 of land bank com- missioner loans, secured largely by second mortgages. Senator Barkley of Kentucky, in his first major speech as majority leader, urged unsuccessfully that the veto be sustained. He said the bill would impose a $40,000,000 annual burden on the treasury. No kidnaper, but a special commissioner of military affairs on world tour, Gen. Yang Fu-cheng is pictured above with his wife “If we continue this interest sub- sidy a8 a government policy on farm loans,” Barkley declared, “it will be difficult to resist the same kind of request from Home Owners Loan corporation borrowers and other gov- ernment debtors. “And if we should yield to their request, the treasury would be forced to shoulder the annual burden of $200,000,000 to $300,000,000.” But Senator McNary (Rep.-Ore.), minority leader, told the senate he was “not in favor of trying to bal- ance the budget with funds from the farmer who has a mortgage on his farm.” He asserted the president had made “no substantial effort” to balance the budget. Vetoing the bill, Mr. Roosevelt con- tended there was ‘no justification for continued government subsidy” of the farm debtors.” Decomposed Body Is Not That of Doctor Washington, July 22.—(#)—Direc- tor J.

Alleged failure of the Japanse to carry out part of the agreement, how. ever, was said to have caused the Chinese evacuation to be halted ab. ruptly.
