Will Override Tax
Slash Veto
WASHINGTON, The Sen
ate today passed the Republican
bill to cut income taxes nearly five
billion. The vote was 78 to 11, for
fhore than the two-thirds needed
for passing it over a veto. The bill
•tow goes to the House which pre
viously had voted a six and a half
billion cut.
Some opponents insisted a two
thirds margin could not be main
tained against the veto the Repub
licans say they expect. It would
liave to be—in both the Senate and
blouse—to override President Tru
4tlan’s disapproval.
However, Republican hopes that
a veto could be killed remained
liigh. It was put into words by the
party’s newest convert to tax re
duction, Senator Morse of Oregon.
He told a reporter: “Overriding a
veto is in the bag.”
A. Polet left for Seattle last Sat
urday where he will take care of
some business and visit with his
grandson, Bill Boucher, who has
recovered from his recent illness.
A combined business and pleas
ure trip will take them both to
California after Easter.
