hers. i
NN hen the Alabama resolutions reached I
is they were found te have placed Hie ratio i
of obligation upon the r<-| iree.cn tat inn in
Congress. This wa? a wwr? simple basis '
than ours, and our bill was changed to eon- i
forth to it. But, to our great regret, it was I
found ih?t these n solutions invelved both

fV amine of our bill, we had Considered and

If titn action of aM the other Stntea shall
show that our plan. wl'.cn tindi rstaod, in

Vou *uggc*t tha? the imp!# act nf the

Hut the adoption of the AUI anny plan hy

would have the power to establish,
we were willing to leave to It. The onjv
