OVERRIDES ANTI
LABOUR BILL VETO
Truman Defeated By Decisive Vote
Washington, June 20.
The House of Representatives today decided by 331 against 83 votes to override President Truman's veto on the Anti-Labour Bill.
This action left the decision whether the Bill shall become law to the Senate, which is generally expected to muster the required two-thirds majority also to override the veto and to assure the passage of the Bill.
The Senate vote is expected late today or early tomorrow. Arrangements have been made for President Truman to broadcast late tonight on his decision to veto the Bill.
Earlier in the day, President Truman vetoed the Republican-sponsored Anti- Labour Bill.
This Bill, which won substantial approval in both Houses of Congress, pro-? vides for court injunctions to prevent major strikes and puts drastic curbs
