PORTO RIco's LOCAL LAW.
Supreme Court Holds That Congress
Intended to Preserve It.

In an opinion in the case of Romeu VS..
Todd. Justice White of the United States
Supreme Court has laid down some of the
general principles affecting the application
of congressional enactments in Porto Rico,
where the case originated as opposed to
the local law. He said:
considering the manifest intent Of
Congress, we cannot close our eyes to the
fact that that body in providing a gov
eminent for Porto Rice evidently intended
to preserve to the people Of the island the
system of local law to which they had
been accuStomed, nor can we, consistently
with this enlightened purpose, assent to
the conclusion that the mere provision Of
the act by which a court was created to
enforce the local law empowered the court
so created to set at naught the local law
by disregarding fundamental rules of real
property governing in the island. thereby
creating confusion and uncertainty, and
hence tending to the destruction Of the
rights of innocent third parties
The case was contest over land in
Porto Rico which Romeu sought to pre-
vent Todd from selling to satisfy a debt.
The decision was favorable to Romeu, re-
versing the district court for Porto Rico.
