The measure, which has been the subject of a fight between congress and two successive presidents, was re- passed today by the senate over Presi dent Coolidge’s veto by a vote of 59 to 26. This was s margin of two votes more than the necessary two- thirds majority as compared with the 52 votes there were to spare when the veto was overriden in the house last Saturday. President Coolidge made p futile last-minute effort to have his veto sustained in the senate, calling to the White House for a breakfast confer ence seven Republican senators. Four of these two previously had voted for the bill cast their ballots in support of the executive. Altogether there were only five senators who had supported the bill on its first passage to vote against it today. They were: Colt of Rhode Island, Keyes of New Hampshire, Mc Kinley of Illinois, Phipps of Colorado and Sterling of South Dakota. All except Senator Colt were at the White House conference. The others attending the conference were: Came ron of Arizona, Harreld of Oklahoma and Dale of Vermont. The last move of the administra tion was to seek delay in the vote un til Saturday, Senator Reed (Republi can) of Pennsylvania asking unani mous consent to defer action until that time. The senate was in no mood for delay, however, and as Sena tor Ashrust (Democrat) of Arizona, objected, there were immediate cries of “Vote, Vote,” fnom both sides of the chamber. Senator Curtis, of Kansas, assistant Republican leader, who had charge of the bill, moved for a vote and was joined by Senator Robinson of Arkan sas, the Democratic leader, in sug gesting that debate was unnecessary. Senator Lodge of Massachusetts and other administration leaders joined with Senator Curtis in voting against the president. White House officials in discussing the senate action emphasized that the Mellon tax reduction program was predicted upon the assumption that .there would be no bqnus legislation. While they refused to say so directly, they left the impression that congress having decided on a bonus, hope of material tax reduction must be aban doned. Secretary Mellon was not prepared to discuss the effect of the bonus upon the treasury’s financial program, but he said that “sodner or later there must be provision for payment and it can be met only by new taxes.” * The treasury secretary conferred with President Coolidge after the sen ate acted but neither he nor White House officers would disclose the sub ject matter of the conference. Mr. Mellon also declined to comment on suggestions by some treasury offi cials that the treasury could not do otherwise than recommend a veto of the pending tax legislation as a re sult of the passage of the bonus. Mr. Mellon .said he could make no intelligent statement concerning the whole situation until he had received from his assistants information now in preparation concerning the effect bonus payments will have on future fiscal operations of the government. The fcost of the bonus has been variously estimated at from $2,250,- 000,000 to $4,000,000,000, treasury of ficials making the higher estimate. The only cash provided for is $50 to each service man not entitled to more than that in adjusted service credit. Others would receive a paid pp 20- year endowment insurance policy. The cost*for the next fiscal year, when it is figured the cash payments will be made, has been estimated at $150,000,000, which proponents of the law say can be taken care of and tax es reduced at the same time. After the next fiscal year the cost is ex pected to decrease slightly and it is figured that an annual appropriation of $100,000,000 will be necessary to meet the cost over the 20 years. Machinery to put the law into oper ation will be*.set up as rapidly as is possible, all the agencies affected having had under consideration for some time plans for carrying out the provisions of the act. Representa tives of the veterans’ bureau, the army, the navy and marine corps de cided in conference today upon tta procedure to be followed. One form of application will be used for all services and these applications will be distributed throughout the country-through the postoffices, the American Red Cross, the American Legion and other service societies. The scene in the senate as the vote came was unusual. The galleries were crowded and many members of the house and others had places op the •floor. With the announcement of the vote, which ended in a five years’ fight for a bonus, the spectators broke into 'applause. President Cummins threatened to have the galleries clear ed but scarcely had tiie demonstration gotten under way before a number of Democratic senators joined in the ap plause. Both opponents and propon ents had marshalled as many of their forces as possible. Senator Lenroot (Republican) of Wisconsin, returned to the senate to vote against the president after an absence of many weeks because of illness. Senator Greene (Republican) of Vermont, likewise was present for the first time since he was shot down in a bat tle between bootleggers and prohibi tion officers on Pennsylvania avenue more than three months ago. He voted to sustain the veto. Hupmofolle The Better Way To Buy a Motor Car REACHING THE SPOT It Has Been Dene, So Scores of Clin ton Citiseqa Say. To get rid of an aching back, The sharp twinges.
