There is now, of course, no government there ade- quate for that. “It would dishonor the memory of Americans who lost their lives if the causes of the Spanish American war were allowed to continue in Cuba.” The New Yorker asserted that both the Republican and Demo- cratic administrations had “done their best to ignore” conditions i Cuba, and that Machado had been able to retain control. largely. be- anse “of the suport of New York bankers.” é “We must bring the whole thing into the open.” Fish asserted, add- ing. that be already had discussed the situation with State Depart- ment officials and that if nothing were done soon he would talk with Setretary Hull personally. “T hope to say some of these things on the house floor as soon as I can get an opportunity,” j Fish said. ‘GUARDSMEN TO | | for operations im that region is jioomtos there.
