and to give the immediate and un-
qualified approval to the New Mexi-
can constitution Both provisions were
rejected singly. and. later. when Mr..

voted down.
Tnc Democrats said the proposal to
force Arizona to reject the recall was
an effort to keep that state out OF

TO leave to the people the determine
tion OF the recall question.

by popular recall at any time.
Mr. Houston was followed by Mr.
Littleton. Democrat, who made his
ma den speech in the House, saying:
