"I hereby return without my approval House bill No. 8293."
"This bill is in many of its features far removed from a legitimate deficiency bill, and it contains a number of appropriations which seem to me to be exceedingly questionable."
"I am advised by the Pension Bureau that the bill, if it becomes a law in its present form, would be inoperative."
"There certainly ought to be a strong presumption that the case was fairly and justly determined by the Bureau."
