felt that small forts could be taken prac-
Ideally without opposition and that Cienfue-

Grande ON the north coast are probably

Cfenfuegos pm the south coast is the point
most accessible to the commands OF both
Gomez and Garcia. while Sagua is within
easy reach OF Gomez.
BY having two bases, one on the ncrth
and one on the south, the danger OF inter-
ruptlon In the communication from one
to the other would be removed. and II is
thought through communication between
the two could be effected. 1t Is said that
cienfuegos ard Sagua coald not offer the
resistance that Matanzas and other large
ports are able TO present. The large Gu
ban ports have fairly good batteries, and
il would take a considerable naval force

smaller ports could make little more than
