S BILLS ARE LAW
IN 4 DAYS OVER
trumai^ Veto
WASHINGTON, - —Con
gress made history yesterday by
passing major legislation over
President Truman’s veto for the
third time in four days.
The No. 3 bill is one letting
railroads make rate agreements
of a kind now barred by anti
trust laws.
. • * *
Final action was completed by
the House. The Senate overrode
the veto 63 to 25 yesterday:
The House vote was 297 to 102.
This was 31 votes more than the
two-thirds needed to make the
measure law over Mr. Truman’s
objections.
Congressional officials said 3
vetoes slapped down within a
week is a record not equalled by
any other Congress.
Earlier this week Congress had
knocked down vetoes of a social
security bill and an appropria
tion bill transferring the United
States Employment Service from
the Labor Department to the Fed
eral Security Agency. Both are
now law, along with the railroad
bill.
