President's Message on Porto Rico Policy Sparks House Row
The special message from the president urging remedial Porto Rico legislation triggers a House clash over committee referrals and quorum. Speaker Cannon resists moving the message to Insular Affairs despite Mr Garrett of Tennessee's demand, leaving the matter in limbo as the chamber adjourns with no action and the message on the Speaker's desk. The president urges limits on executive power in insular governance and proposes budgetary provisions to avoid misuses of appropriation across territories.
