posing the group OF the Antilles known
rs the Danish West Indies and lying Just
cast of Porto Rico. and thus. so lar as
this country is concerned. contaminated
a transaction which has been under con-
sideratiou internationally since the adj
ministration of President Lincoln.
Senator Cullom. as chairman OF the
Committee on Foreign Relations. ex-
planned the advantages OF the acquisition
of the islands. and Senators Bacon and
McI.aurin Miss made brief remarks,
saying that while they could not indorse
all the provisions OF the agreement they
would place no obstacles in the way OF
ratification.
Senator Bacon moved to amend the
treaty by striking ont the second para
graph of Article :, of the treaty, reading
as follows:
The civil rights and the political status
of the inhabitants OF the islands shall be
determined by the Congress. subject TO
the stipulations contained in the present
convention.
He based his opposition to this pro-
vision on the general ground that the
Constitution should extend 10 the islands
when they become part OF the United
States. He said. however. that the fail
ure TO accept the amendment would not
prevent his voting for the treaty. for he
believed in the Monroe doctrine. Cn-
der that doctrine this country could not
permit any European power to acquire
the islands. and the United States could
mot in fairness take this position and
then refuse to buy them when they are
for sale.
The amendment was rejected without
division
Senator Cullom gave a detailed ac-
count of the islands resources and of
their trade value TO the United States.
He said the provision affecting the civil
rights of the inhabitants was similar to
The provision on the same subject in the
Spanish treaty concerning Porto Rico.
