| through It's counsel, Horatio s. Rubens
made a most important statement TODAY
1t declared in the most unequivocal Ian
guage that the Cuban army would abso-
lutely reject intervention by the United
States unless 1t should be preceded by
| recognition of the independence of tn,
| Cuban republic that il the United States
| persisted in Intervening without recop-
| njzing Cuban Independence the Cuban
government and military forces would re-
| fuse to cooperate; and that If United
States troops should be sent to cuba
upon the basis of Intervention without
| recognition the Cuban army would az q
last resort turn it's arms against the
| United States Mr.. Rnbens said the
| declaration was official After quoting
| from the address to the people of the
| United States issued by Mr. Palma
| March H. Mr. Rubens saws:
! ''In the face of the present proposal of
intervention without previous recognize \
| il is necessary for US to go a step farther
and say that we must regard such inter
vention as nothing less than a declaration
of war by the United States against the
| Cuban rcvolutionists If intervention
| shall take place on that basis and tho
| United States shall land an armed force
on Cuban soil We shall treat that force
| rs an enemy to be opposed and If pos
siblo expelled. so long as the recognition
| of a FREE. Cuban rapuhIIc is withheld
