Truman Vetoes Kerr Gas Bill Washington, April 15-- (IP)-- Pres ident Truman today vetoed tin Kerr gas bill, saying It would nol be in the national The bill, on which a sup porters were divided, would have exempted independent, natural gab producers from federal regulation, 'After careful analysis and full consideration," the president said, "I believe that such an action would not be in the national in terest." The president's veto message was addressed to the house where the legislation originated. Since the liouse is in recess i Tuesday the message was delivered to the liouse clerks office.

The bill has bneu condemned by opponents as a profit "grab" by "special interests" and hailed by its sponsors as simply underscoring what congress meant to say 12 years ago. Court Decision Left Status Unclear Sales, by independent producers of gas have not been regulated since congress enacted the natural act of 193S, hut a recent su- jreme court decision left unclear authority ot the federal power commission to control the prices.
