Blow for Cuban treaty may prevent action
Washington reports a discovery by opponents that the Cuban treaty amendments from the last Senate session were never publicly released. The House cannot act until the Senate votes to publish its action. Louisiana senators plan speeches to block ratification, while Alabama’s Morgan may press to force negotiations with Nicaragua and Costa Rica for an isthmian canal. The dispute over bill versus resolution and the Senate’s failure to publish amendments threaten final ratification prospects.
