Polygamy Amendment Reported By House Judiciary
Washington May 21 The House Judiciary Committee instructed Chairman Tucker to report favorably an amendment to the Constitution declaring polygamy unlawful. The proposed article XVI outlines polygamy illegality, state and federal prohibitions, federal prosecutions, and states that marriage and divorce power remains with states subject to this article. Judge Tucker said the committee would report the amendment Monday and then likely take up the Edmunds Utah bill. The article also notes the Senate patent committee reporting original copyright legislation as a substitute.
