congress, Pedro Herrera Sotolongo,
liberal representative, today contin-
ued his campaign to align congress
sional support for his proposal to
force the chief executive personally
to justify his procedure before con-
gress.
Presentation by Representative
Herrera Sotolongo of petition ask
ing the president to inform congress
on the steps he had taken to carry
out a recent legislative act resulted
in spirited debate last night in the
house, at the. conclusion of which the
liberal deputy announced his inten-

executive to task for his alleged dis
regard of the legislative branch of
the government. The petition asked:
"On what legal grounds does the
president base his action in not COM
plying with the law recently enacted
by congress ceding certain lands in
Havana for a hospital for tubercular
children, to be known as the Maria
Jaen hospital, but, on the other hand,
ceding by decree other lands situated
in the town of Marianao for this pur-
pose.
During the resultant debate, En-
rique Recio, leader of the minority
liberal party, declared that faction
would vote approval for the petition,
but the majority leaders declined to
commit their party.
