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

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

see that authority for the exercise of
this power Is implied in any expressed
grant of 1'ower. 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.

that the congress may fInd time before
adjournment to remedy this defect."

'Washington, June 5.--Secretary
Meredith, in a statement tonight, out
lined enore than 'half a -hundred de

The agricultural bill, as passed by
congress, appropriated approximately
$31,000,000, wh'ch Secretary Meredith

$2,185,000 less than the amount pro

lresent year.
