DAYLIGHT BILL IS VETOED AGAIN! President Declares Measure 1 Promotes Production by Industry. Washington.?President Wilson today vetoed the bill repealing the daylight saving law. The president said he returned the bill without his approval with the "utmost reluctance" because he realized "the very considerable, and in some rosnects verv serious incon veniencdfc to which the daylight savings law subjects the farmers of the country." The president's niesage was sent to Speaker Gillette, but when an effort was made to present it to the House, Representative Blanton, Democrat, Texas, made a point of no quorum and the house adjourned without the message being read. Declaring the pressing need of the country was for production by industry, the president said he had been obliged to "balance one set to disadvantages against another and decide which was the more serious for the country." This was the second time the president had vetoed repeal of the law by which the clocks are set forward an hour on the last Sunday in March and turned back an hour the last Sun day in October. The first veto was several weeks ago, the repeal being attached as a rider to the annual agricultural ap piopriation. 1 White House officials and members 1 of congress could not recall a pre- 5 vious instance of a president having vetoed twice the same bill. Efforts t to pass the agricultural measure over 1 the veto failed in the house and then i the separate house repeal bill then t pending, was passed by the senate. Leaders in congress doubt that the two-thirds vote necessary to pass 1 the repeal measure over the presi- t dent's head can be obtained. i o 1 Y CEMETERY WORK DAY. 1 ^ - -? * * rt A. -4 A 1 A1 A * n un weunesuay, oepu iu, its work day at Rehoboth Baptist church cemetery, for the purpose of putting 1 up the wire and cleaning off the < MMMM?1^??
