Willard School this Washington (AP) President Truman vetoed yesterday a bill which would have the government pay up to on the price of an automobile for any veteran of World War II, or the Korean War, who has lost a leg, or lost an arm, or is blind or nearly so.

Mr. Truman noted there had pbeen previous legislation to help fprovide automobiles for World War II veterans who have lost a ''leg. He said the theory was that 'this was compensation for loss of mobility. What he objected to mainly j'about the new bill was bringing 1 in veterans who have lost an arm or are blind.

The New Jersey senator said he has "absolute confidence" in Jessup's loyalty, but declared; "He (Jessup) is the symbol of a group attitude toward Asia which seems to have been proved completely unsound. This is not a mere difference of opinion. This is an issue that may well involve the future of Asia and of the world." Blow To State Dept.

The subcommittee's adverse recommendation came as a crushing blow to the State Department which had fought tooth-and-nail to support Jessuy and had carried on a running battle with Stassen, one of Jessup's chief critics. Unless the Senate acts on the nomination, Mr. Truman could ignore the subcommittee's vote and send Jessup to the critical forthcoming sessions of the United Nations General Assembly.
