That body, despite a protest front President Hoover, voiced iii a letter to Senator Watson, passed the bill by a vote of GG to 6, only G, all Standpat Republican leaders voting against it. A prompt veto is expected The Senate is said to be in the mood to override the Presidential veto, as was done in the ease of the bill for the Spanish-American War Veterans, but the House 'Republicans held a caputs and euough of them agreed to try to draft a substitute more to the liking of Mr. Mellon and Mr. Hoov er, to obviate another squelching of the President. The Lindberghs have a baby boy. Hope the child will have sense enough to do like his father and ignore the foolish, fawning, seutimentalism that the American people have already! begun to shower ujhmi him. If he has n't, lie is a mined boy to begin with.
