Democrats Unable to Break
ike's Six Year Veto Record
WASHINGTON (Al—By four votes, House Democrats failed
yesterday in an all-out bid to break President Eisenhower's 6-year
record of never having a veto overridden by Congress.
Eisenhower promptly voiced deep gratification for the 280-146
vote by which the House sustained his veto of a bill that would have
his veto of a bill that would have
taken from Secretary of Agricul
ture Ezra Taft Benson the power
to pass on rural electrification
and telephone loans. Benson said'
he was pleased. too.
With an exceptionally he a v yl
total of 426 votes, the Democrats'
needed 284 votes to pass the bill
over Eisenhower's veto. But they,
fell four votes short of the two
thirds majority required. Tw o
days ago, the Senate voted to
override, 64-29.
In all, 274 Democrats and 6 Re
publicans voted to overturn the
veto, while the Republicans mus
tered 142 of their own votes and
4 Democrats in support of the
President. There was no debate.
Since Eisenhower entered the
White House in 1953, he has re
jected 138 bills, including the
rural electrification measure—
and all 138 vetoes have stuck.
Democrats, with their .heaviest
Senate and House majorities in
years, decided the rural electrifi
cation bill provided a vehicle to
break that string.
