NEXT SESSION OF CONGRESS

President Roosevelt has not been dis
suaded from his purpose to secure for
the people OF Porto Rico the honors and
privileges of American citizenshop. not
wthstanding the failure Of Congress to
respond to his repeated recommends
tlons on the subject
John S. Rossell. OF this city, after
his recent return from Porto Rico,
brought the matter to the Presidents
attention and urged immediate action
on the bill. but owing TO the vast
amount of business before Congress at
that time and the determined purpose
Of the members to leave Washington
as soon as possible, nothing could be
done
The President will. however. return
to the subject on the re-assambling Of
Congress in December and will again
advocate favorable action on the meas
ure. The following letter on the sub
ioct. written by the President to Mr..
Rossell shows how earnest he is in
the support OF the cause of the Porto
Ricans:

My Dear Sir Mr.. Loeb has called
to my attention your letter Of the 3D.

ferring citizenship upon the Porto
