Government By Veto Possibility Cited WASHINGTON (UPD - Lawmakers generally agreed today the Democratic-controlled Congress won’t be able to enact any controversial spending bills over an Eisenhower veto. ; They said this was demonstrat,ed when 274 of the 282 House ' Democrats voted Thursday to override the veto of a rural electrification bill and the attempt still fell four votes shy. Seldom, if ever, have Democratic leaders been able to marshal such a remarkable turnout on any bill and they could no* hope to do it on a budget-boost-ing measure. Many conservative southern Democrats usually'cross party lines to side with Republicans on money bills. Ip appeared likely Eisenhower would finish his eight years in office without haying a veto overridden by Congress — the first president to compile that record since Warren G. Harding. Only six GOP members voted against the veto Thursday. Republicans said the outcome proved they are in a position to sustain a veto on “wild spending” measures. Democrats said it raised the possibility of "government by veto.’’ “The overwhelming Democratic majority in Congress will have to vote not for what it wants in the way of housing or depressed area legislation, or for schools or airports, but for what the President will accept.” Rep. James M. Quigley (D-Pa.) said. ■ Quigley, w’ho represents Eisenhower’s home district of Gettysburg, said the REA vote showed “the President is more potent” than the 64 senators and 280 representatives who voted to override the veto. < Rep.JhFrank J. Becker (R-N.Y.) said the vote was “proof conclusive that the ’Republicans will uphold future vetoes by the President of legislation that is purely political on the part of the Democrate to create further deficits.” Rep. Richard Bolling <D-Mo.) said there wasn’t “any question” that Democrats will have a tougher time enacting a spending bill over a veto even though they have a big majority in both houses. Michigan Governor Cancels Appearance INDIANAPOLIS (UPD — Gov, G. Mennen Williams of Michigan cancelled an appearance at the Indianapolis Press Club’s Gridiron dinner May 16 “in order to make myself available at all times during this financial crisis for Michigan." The club promptly booked Sen. Eugene McCarthy (D-Minn.) to take Williams’ place on the program. Jf you have something to sen o» rooms, for rent, try a Democrat Want Ad — They bring results.

Big Executive Lesson for May 8, 1959 DAVID, as King of Israel, would not make nearly so large a splash in the modem world as he did in his time. For one thing, his kingdom was a large one, for him, but in our times it would seem to be pretty small. At its greatest extent it measured only about 350

miles north to south, and an average of about 120 east to west Lay that down alongside the map of your own state, and it will not look enormous. Furthermore, kings are very unpopular

nowadays. We cherish the few that are left, but more as curiosities than as vital necessities. Nevertheless, this ancient freebooter who rose to a throne, who hacked a kingdom out of the wrecks of other kingdoms, was a man of such strength of character personally that he has remained a figure of romance and religion combined, for centuries. It would not do us much good to think of him as king, for nobody around here has any ambitions to become a king. Still, most Americans do cherish the ambition of some day becoming an executive, the bigger ,the better; and we can do ourselves some good by thinking of David as a good example of a big executive. * Far the Pwple The executive will always be with us. Whether you are operating a lifeboat or an orchestra or a college or a steel plant, there has to be a boss of some kind. People may not like particular bosses, but a man who thinks we’d better abolish all bosses doesn’t know ; what he’s talking about. The ancient king, like the modem business executive, is the policy-maker, he makes the decisions that affect his whole business. If he is any good, he is worth his extra salary. But what makes a boss a good one? Os course he should know the business well, from the inside; and David surely did. He knew the land and the people, he was an experienced guerilla fighter, he had been trained in the leadership of smaller units before he took high command. He knew what the people needed, having come up from the ranks, he knew what they thought and what they wanted and how they lived. It is said of him that he “administered justice and equity to all his people.” Some kings have used their power for themselves; David used his for his people. Public Relations David was no Hitler, perpetually unsatisfied so long as another country was left unconquered. He dreamed no dreams of world-em-pire. His territory for those days was ample, and larger than most. We read of his friendly relations with other kingdoms on various borders. Now that is another mark of the good executive; he not only uses his position for the public good, but he maintains good “public relations” in every direction. Nowadays every business of any size, including educational institutions, will have a public-relations director. This is not mere advertising. Whatever good your outfit may be able to do, it can do its job better if its aims are understood. Under Rod David was first and last a religious man. He learned some hard lessons the hard way; one of these was that not even a king can be* above the law of God. His kingdom, strictly speaking, was not his own: it was God’s kingdom which he was expected to manage as God’s representative. The people he ruled were God’s people before they were his. Like all kings, he came and went; only God remains forever. God is King of Kings, Lord of Lords. When J. B. Phillips came to translate Ephesians 6:9, he had a happy thought. Turning what Paul writes into the forms of the 20th century, he- remembers that “master” and “slave” are no longer realistic words. Bo lie has Paul warn employers: Remember that you are responsible to a Heavenly Employer! High office, whether it is in a business firm, a manufacturing plant, a university, or in a political position, Is not only a public trust, but It is A responsibility under God.
