Despite the overriding of two ve toes by the house this week, there re mained some doubt over the force that could be* mustered directly on the highway reorgMization . isfue ^ndex the new alignment of representatives. If tJhe veto were to be deliyerd and’’] sustained by the house, members point ed out, there trained a possibility of continued senate refusal to confirm five Johnston appointees to the high way commission.
