Upon him will fall all the wrath of the Lord.” The army of occupation includes dollars invested in land, government bonds, railroads, mines, manufactures, banks, public service companies, com- merce, tobacco and sugar, according | to the American Chamber of Com-j merce in Havana. The greatest of these is sugar. Sugar has been more than 81 per cent of Cuba’s export for the past 21 years; of sugar shipped from Cuba | more than 83 per cent has gone to the United States. Hight hundred million disciplined U. trenched in Cuba’s sugar industry ef- fectively dominate Cuban . economic life, says Senor Ruiz. Provoke Crisis. Partly as a result of. financial crisis “provoked by American terests,” Cuban lands are so rapidly being sold and mortgaged to Ameri- cans that “soon Cubans will hardly own enough ground to plant their flag on,” asserted Senor ' Ruiz.
