Texas Representative Targets Frederick the Great Memorial
In Washington on May 24 Representative Stephens of Texas introduced a resolution opposing any U S public statue honoring foreign emperors or potentates who claim divine right. The measure asserts acceptance would betray the bill of rights and insult Revolutionary fathers. The House focused on private pension bills, passing 105, and adjourned for Rochambeau ceremonies. Senate discussion on the Philippines centers on trade, labor, and China’s role, with Senator DuBois warning of global competition if the islands remain under U S control and Senator Beveridge arguing China’s development benefits the United States. The piece then shifts to a speculative engineering debate about a dam and railway across the Strait of Newfoundland, discussing environmental, economic, and diplomatic implications and noting lack of concrete climatic guarantees.
