Puerto Rico Sets Election On Home Rule

U. §. Political 5 Tie Not at Stake /*

By United Press SAN JUAN, P. R., May 12 people of this American island territory will decide in a referendum nn June 4 whether they want a home-written constitution and full autonomy in local affairs. Of Puerto Rico's more than| 2,000,000 population, 777399! ffersons, men and women, are registered and eligible to vote in|

the referendum. Besides “the 1sstie |

Truman signed PubHe Law 600 on July 3, 1950 authorizing Puerto Rico to replace its nresent organic act, written by the United States Congress, with a ronstitution to he written by the slanders themselves. Provision was made, however, that the law would not take effect until it was ratified by the people in a referendum,

Sentiment Divided { The Puerto Ricans are bv nn means in solid agreement over ‘he projected constitution. Their) our registered political parties are 2lmost as sharply divided over the juestion as they were in the 1948 elections, | However, since the idea of a! constitution was one of the planks| of Gov. Luis Munoz Marin's Popu- | lar Democratic Party, which| scored a landslide victory in 1948, | the majority of the people pre-| sumably are in favor of it. Under a home-written constitu-| tion, there no longer would be any | Insular government executive or judicial posts filled by presidential | appointment, as is now the case with the insular auditor and the] five justices of the insular supreme | rourt. Except for those two categories, | Puerto Rico really has enjoyed what amounts to full autonomy in| local affairs since 1948, when it/ elected its own governor for the first time. Two Restrictions With its own constitution, Puer-| to Rico, through its own legisia-| tyre, would be able to make, amendments to it whenever necessary. That would be one of the main advantages. At present only the U, 8. Congress can amend the | organicact. However, a home-made constitution would not affect the f{aland's present relations, political as well as economic, with. the! United States in any way; they" would continue to be controlled by the U. 8. Congress. In accordance with Public Law 600 only two restrictions are imposed upon the projected constitution: | ONE: It must “provide for a| republican form of government.” TWO: It must “include a bill of | rights.” Once written it would be submitted to the people in another referendum on Jan. 21, 1952.
