Palmer Defends Cuba Policy Nearing Senate Clash
In Washington on March 23 the senate debated the Cuban resolutions conference report. Senator Palmer denounced the resolutions as unfriendly to Spain and said they imply unhelpful diplomacy. He argued recognizing insurgents as belligerents would absolve Spain of responsibility for American injuries in Cuba. A joint resolution to seek local self government for Cuba was introduced by Mills. The senate disagreed with the Cuban resolutions conference report and another conference was requested. The president sent J M Ballard's nomination as Marion postmaster to the senate.
