that Uorutrfe* #perideally extended the

Flnallv a* to the extension of law* to
the territories Mr. Grigg* said th it by
act of Congress in 1971. Congress had ex
pressly extended the ronztltution and fed
eral law* to the “organised
and to every territory, “hereafter organ
ised " But the gr| wen’ no further than
‘ organised terrdorie*," and could not !*e
lnterj*ret*s| to mean that expanse of coun
try entirely unorganized. The Guano
!*l in*le were cited In support of the prop
osition that territory m.ty la*long to. or Ik*

without being h part of the United State*
Over seventy different Island*, key* and

der the law and the United State* Su
preme Court has recognise*! their statu*,
hut they are not a part of the United
State*.
Justice Brewer and llarl.in asked a num
l*er of question*.
Juwtb-o Brewer asked If the Attorney
General held that a* Congress extended
the constitution and laws to the organis
ed territories. Congress also could take
them away from the territories,
Mr. Grlgg* answer#*! that this wa* a
roost serious question, but he thought It
safe to say that when th* law* were
one? extend/,! to territories an Inviolable
contract wan created anil could not
broken.
Justice Marian asked the Attorney (en

reminded Mr. Qrlgg* that Oklahoma wa*

an apparent exception to 'he rule tfifttort
by the Attorney General Mr. Orlgge

Mareh. remitting to Porto Rich certain
duties collected “under exllng law."
Thin, Mr. Grlgg* declared, wa* an a*or
tlon by both branches of the prescii, Oon
gres* that the tariff acl which wen the
“existing law" operated against Porto
Rico.
Justice White a*ked *ho Attorney Gen
eral If ha claimed that Congress could
►o exempt territories from Ihe liw* a* to
give them privilege* not enjoyed by the
st ate*.
Mr. Grtggs responded that he did o
• latm. lhae In fan the territories hal
tieen for year* exempted from Internal
revenue and direct taxes.
The Attorney General referred to the
celebrated ease of Loughborough versus
Blake, whereupon Justice Harlan, reading
from that decision, asked Mr. Grlgg* what
Chief Justice Marshall meant In saying
“The *power to lay and roller, duties.
Imposts and excises, may tie exercised,
and must be exercised ‘throughout the
I'ntted State*.' "
Mr. Grlgg* said “throughout the I'nlted
States" referred lo the states of the
I’nlon, but Justice Harlan |wtnti*d out
that li refarerd also to the District of Co
lumbia and the lerrwory west of the Mis
souri.
Mr. Grtggs closed his five hour* speech
with a brilliant and eloquent peroration.
Instead of seeking strict and narrow
construction he concluded the power* of
ihe executive and legislative branches hsd
been so construed a* to give them o wise
and safe discretion. o that the day would
I— hastened when we might give lo these
new peoples aelf-government and lo some
