		That Act established the Territory of Hawaii and placed the lands ceded to the United States in the Newlands Resolution under the "posses sion, use, and control of the government of the Territory of Hawaii." § 91, 31 Stat.
		As the court of ap peals explained, even assuming that the Newlands Reso lution created a trust and that the United States was a trustee of that trust, the Resolution specifically provided that "the Congress of the United States shall enact spe cial laws for the[] management and disposition" of the public lands.
		Moreover, even if the Newlands Resolution itself did not provide that Congress could modify the terms of any trust created by the Newlands Resolution, cross-peti tioners cite no authority for the extraordinary proposi tion that Congress cannot change the terms of a trust that it creates for the benefit of the general public.

	Comment: Rice v. Cayetano
		In 1988, the U.S. Justice Department issued an advisory memorandum to the Department of State, in which the unconstitutional and illegal nature of the 1898 Newlands Resolution is quite clearly spelled out.
		Because Texas was acquired as a new state, the joint resolution annexing Texas relied on Congress' constitutional power to admit new states.
		For this reason, says the memo, "the method of annexing Texas did not constitute a proper precedent for the annexation of a land and people to be retained as a possession or in a territorial condition," namely, Hawaii.
