Statehood Reported in New Mexico Arizona Bill
Washington dispatches report the New Mexico and Arizona statehood bill was sent to the House by Chairman Hamilton of the Territories Committee but not acted upon. Insurgent Republicans demand a comprehensive preview of the caucus details before supporting the measure, with Taft's remarks not fully clarifying. The House also recommitted resolutions to shift presidential inauguration date, effectively defeating that proposal.
