T h e heavily Democratic House by a vote of 321 to 61 voted to override the veto and the measure went to the Senate where a ballot is im- possible before Monday. Or- iginally the Senate voted 74 to 16 in passing the identi- cal bill while the House vote for the measure in the first instance was 346 to 58 or nearly the same sentiment which overrode the veto. Predictions were being made today that the bill would become law the first of the week with the Sen- ate’s endorsement over the President’s wishes.
