The measure now becomes law, the house automatically having taken similar action. The vote was 29 to 26 to overthrow the veto. This was two more than the necesmajority. sary Senator Reed, Republican, Pennsylvania, asked unanimous consent that a vote be postponed until Saturday, but Senator Ashurst, Democrat, Arizona, blocked the proposal with a formal objection. By unanimous consent the bill was taken up a few minutes after 2 o'clock on motion of Senator Curtis, Republican, Kansas. Less than a dozen senators-- were absent when actual consideration of the bill began with the reading of the president's veto message. Almost immediately on conclusion of the reading of the message the senate began to vote on repassage of the bill. Senator Curtis said he believed the minds of most of the senators were made up and he favored a rollcall. tne Senator Robinson, Arkansas-- , Democratic leader, concurred in the suggestion, and there were cries or "vote" from both sides. The clerk then began to call the roll. Several Republican organization leaders joined with a strong Democratic lineup in upsetting the veto on a vote which was in doubt until the last minute. President Coolidge himself made an eleventh hour effort to stem the tide of support for the bill. He summoned seven Republicans favoring it to the White House, but was unable to swing over enough votes to actwo-thir- complish its defeat. Thirty Republican, twenty-eeve- n Democrats and the two Farmer-Labo- r senators voted to override the Seventeen veto. Republicans and nine Democrats voted to sustain the president. The rollcall follows: Brandegee, Brook-har- t, Republicans Cameron, Capper, Bursum, Cummings, Curtis, Dale, Elkins, Fess, Gooding, Hale, Harreld, Frazier, Howell, Johnson of California, Jones of Washington, Ladd, Lenroot, Lodge, MacLean, McNarry, Norbeck, Norris, Oddie, Shortridge, Spencer, Stanfield, Warren and Wills 30.
