Since the order of the president CON
tinuing the legal existence Of the insulnr
commission the members have been bust
~ engaged in preparing code of laws to
take the place Of the Spanish statutes.
The best legal advice the commissioners
have been able to obtain supports their
own view that such a new code can be
lagally adopted by the military govern
ment of the island with the sanction Of
the president and without awaiting the
action Of congress.
Such step would give the islanders
the advantage of modern laws under
which the regeneration of the island
could be carried on by its military COVER
nor as long as was desirable before rails
ing the question Of Porto Rico's admis-
sion to actual state of territorial rights.
