HR 5678
Veto
July 8, 1952
PRO
A
My dear Mr. Straight:
Please accept the President's thanks for
your message commending his action in vetoing the
#
McCarran-Walters Bill. In his message returning
the Immigration and Nationality Act to the House of
Representatives without his approval, he stated his
conviction that the bill was a step backward in the
immigration and naturalization policy of our country.
Unfortunately this action by the President failed by
two votes of being sustained in the Senate.
With the thought that you might like to
have a copy of the President's veto message for your
ready reference, I am taking the liberty of sending
you a copy herewith.
Very sincerely yours,
WILLIAM D. HASSETT
of
Secretary to the President
Mr. Michael Straight,
National Chairman,
American Veterans Committee, X 1142
1751 New Hampshire Avenue, N. W.,
Washington 9, D. C.
Enclosure.
