LAW

The Gazette contains the draft of ofas Ordinance to amend the Commissioners Powers Ordinance,

The recovery act covers territo- rick-and-insular possessions but without specifically mentioning the Philippines. Section five of the Jones act provides that{ statutory laws of the United States are inoperative in the islauds un- less Congress so specifically pro- vides.

It was under this section and an interpretation of “specific men-į tion" that national prohibition was kept out of the Philippines.
