I am not going to be influenced by what the President may do or by what some other Senators may do about overriding the Presidents veto. They have their responsibilities. and I am not criticizing them in the least. The other day. when we voted on the Japaneseexclusion provision of the immigration law. we did not fail to vote because of what the President thought about it or whether he would veto the bill or because the Secretary of State advised us against its passage. We did not vote on that or any other question because of what certain Senators said or certain other people have said they will do under certain circumstances if we should pass the measure and then the President should do certain things. I am not going to allow my vote to be influenced in any such manner.
