CA 671 does not fix the duration of its effectiveness. The intention of the act has to be sought for in its nature, object to
be accomplished, the purpose to be subserved and its relation to the Constitution. Article VI of the Constitution provides
that any law passed by virtue thereof should be for a limited period. It is presumed that CA 671 was approved with this
limitation in view. The opposite theory would make the law repugnant to the Constitution, and is contrary to the principle
that the legislature is deemed to have full knowledge of the Constitutional scope of its power. CA 671 became inoperative
when Congress met in regular session of May 25, 1946, and that EO Nos. 62, 192, 225 and 226 were issued without
authority of law. In a regular session, the power if Congress to legislate is not circumscribed except by the limitations
imposed by the organic law.
