THE CUBA REVIEW 



Doctrine. The American investors in Cuba and in Central and South America have 

 always been most scrupulous in their obedience to the local laws and contracts. 



"Cuba and her tropical neighbors cannot be developed unless outside capital takes up 

 a large share of the task. We need more ships, more railroads, more mills and more 

 of all that American enterprise and capital has to offer, and we have no fear that we will 

 be 'exploited' if those Americans who come in the future follow the high example set 

 by those who have invested millions in sugar, fruit, tobacco and other products of our 

 soil. Please say to the American people that we are eager to be 'exploited' by the same 

 class of men who are now placing Cuba and Central America on the commercial and 

 industrial maps of the world. "^Frederick Upham Adams in the New York Sun.
