BUDGET SYSTEM BILL IS VETOED President Returns 1111 to Congress Be. Caulise of Section of Which He Dis. approves. Says Congress Exceeds Constitutional Power. Washington, June 4.-President Wilson tonight vetoed the bill to es tablish a budget system of submitting the approciation estimates of govern lineit departments. The president said that under the hill congress would have authoirty to remove the comptroller general from office and that this .authority should 'be reserved to the executive department. Notifying congress that he was re turning the bill without his signature, Presi(ent Wilson in his veto message "fi do this with the greatest regret. 1 am in entire sympathy with the'ob jects of this bill and would gladly ap prove it but for the fact that I regard one of the provisions contained in see tionl 103 as unconstit uti lonal. This is tle, provision to the effect that the eomiiptroller general and the assistant comproller general, who are to le ap poin ted by Ihe PI resi(eit, with the ad vice and consent of the senate, may be rem'iioved at any tiime by a concurrent resolution of congress after notice and hearilng., when in thei r judgment, the vomptiroller 'eneral or assistant coili troifer genera iis icalacitated or In Mlicierit or has been guilty of neglect of dilly, or of malfeasalce of oflice or any felony of conduct involving moral itirpi tude, ad11(i for nio other cause ex cept cither by imnehmenf. "The effect of this is to prevent the removal of these officers for any cause exce'l)( elihr by impnehmiient or a COncurirent resolution of congress. It has, I thiink. always been the accelted construction of tihe con stiitu tion that tle power to appoirnt oflicers of this kind a(rij with it as anl incident the power to )%(move. "I amnelvic' that the( vong-ross is without on!sititionial powerus to limit. the im)n1 power and its inciitii powke1 of rnval derived flom h 1 ie conitiIutionl. "The section referred to not on l forbids 1C: uxeecutive to rimove these oflicers. but undertakes to enmnower lhe congress by a conu . rren t resoli olion to remove an officer appol innteI by I'he President with the advice and con sent of the senate. I cann find in the constitution no warrant for the exer ("ise of this power by tihe congress. There is celtainly no expressed au thority conferred and I am unable to Life Was a Misery Mrs. F. M.

On the contrary, I think its exercise is clearly nogatived by section two of article II. That sec tion, after providing that certain enumerated officers and all officers whose apipointlent are not otherwise provided for shall the appointed by the President with the advice and consent of the senate, provided that congress may by law vest the appointment of such inferior officers as they think proper in the 'President -alone, in the course of law, or in tile heads of de partments. It would have been with in tile constitutional power of the con gress, in creating these officers to have vested the power of appointnmnt in the President alone, in the Prest dent with the advice and consent of the senate, or even in the 'head of a department. Regarding as I do the power of removal from office as an es ,ential incident to the appointing pow er, I can not escape tile conclusion that tile vesting of this power of re moval ill the congress Is unconstitu tional as therefore I am unable to ap 'prove tho bill.
