No.. recently appointed Governor oi
Porto Rico by President Harding, 81
rives here TO take up his official du
ties probably in July. ne will find
an interesting political situatioT
brough. about by the fact that ths
legislature. which was in session a.
the time of the announcement Of
his appointment. Immediately TOOK
q recess without passing the govern
ment budget for the year which com
mences July l.. Neither did it pas
tax bills which were under considera
ton and which are considered neces
sary to produce revenue for the in
sular government.
The legislature is in control d
the unionist party.
Antonio r. Bsrcelo. president of thc
party and of.<he Senate. has receive
Z letter from Governor Rely request
ing that the legislature complete IL
work as quickly as possible and al
journ. There is no indication thu
this request, the first OF the new gov
ernor, will be complied with.
Apparently the legislature reces'
was taken ufeh the idea that il wouls
afford Governor RELY an opportun'
ty to come to Porto Rico and mar
ti~'rate in the framing of laws which
will be enforced during the first tive
years of his term of office.
Although the budget for the mex
two years has net been passed thi'
does not seem to be particularly wor
rving the legislature. If there is M
new budget at the end of June tn
budget row in force viii be continued
for another year. The present bud

of approximately ss.000.000-

unless q new income tax law is pas
sed, or the present law is reenac'"-
nd there will be no income tax fol

most prosperous year in the histor-
Of the island.
The Unionist leaders are far NOR
concerned REGARDING attitude il th'

fiqes of Auditor and COMMISSIONS
Of Education. Unionists are at th'
head of every insular government
department. Before proceeding =
carry out legislative program tn
Unionist leaders want to know whaf
treatment the partv may expect y

Having had consideration from
