The legislature of Porto Rico has re-

back to the arms which the island had
when It was under Spanish oppression.
The announcement, coming close upon
the arrival in Washington of the new
Porto Rican Delegate in Congress who
has intimated that he favors home rule
causes some apprehension that the
Americanization of the island is suffer-

years ago was designed by one of the
best heraldic designers in New York un-
der the supervision Of Gaillard Hunt, of
the State Department. the historian of

The old coat of arms, for which the
Americanized coat of arms has been
discarded, has as conspicuous features
the Catholic emblem of the lamb of st.
