We failed to override vetoes by from one to six votes. The result was. instead of rule by the majority we had rule by just more than onethird plus a veto. Those are the reasons why we have had no aid to depressed areas. no aid to education. no aid to housing. no real liberalization of our social security laws. no increase in minimum wages. no good farm bill. no sufficient liberalization of our immigration laws. no proper conservation and water pollution control bills. and an insufficient. unworkable. and improperly financed bill for medical care for the aged. We authorized and appropriated more money than requested for national security and defense. We believe that the lives and liberty of Americans cannot be measured by dollars and no sum is too great to preserve them.
