THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON December 29, 1945 os MARA S. J. Res. 122 The Veterans Administration interposes no objection to approval of the resolution. The National Housing Agency interposes no objection to approval of the resolution. The Director of the Bureau of the Budget calls attention to the letter addressed to him by Chairman Cannon of the House Committee on Appropriations (copy attached) relative to the manner in which a particular amend- ment was of ffered and stating that a veto should not occasion a hurtful delay. The Director of the Bureau of the Budget feels that dis- approval of the resolution would occasion some delay in relieving the immediate ne ed for veterans housing The Director has prepared draft of memorandum of dis- esta approval in the event the President feels disposed to follow Chairman Cannon's recommendation, but the Di- rector of the Budget does not feel justified in recom- mending that the President withhold his approval. The Director feels that the consequences flowing from dis- approval of this otherwise nuch needed enactment would be of such a character as to cause a great deal of re- sentment on the part of many people who are interested in promoting the welfare of returning veterans.
