GEN. LEE ON CUBANS
TIME NOT RIPE TO GRANT THEM
INDEPENDENCE.

Natives Wholly Lacking Both in tho
Theory and Practice of self-Govern-
mont. but Their Impulses Arc in the
Right Dir ction-Ind ustrial Situation
on tho Island Steadily Improving.
WASHINGTON, Oct 3O.-General Fitz-
hugh Lee in All interview says that
the people of Cuba are steadily improv-
ing under the existing protectorate OF
the United States and are slowly but
surely rebuilding their war-wasted
homes and repairing their crippled for
tunes. Life and property are secure in
Cuba, owing largely, he said, to the
salutary restraint exercised by Amer
ican military authority. He thinks the
time not ripe yet, however, for a purely
Cu:,:sl government.
Cuba" said General Lee, "is inn
proving. The Cubans are tractable and
quiet and the revolution has given them
self-respect and self-reliance. Their
impulses are generally in the right di-
rection, but of course
Both in Theory and Practice
of self-government they are wholly
without experience. There is among
certain Cubans a deep-seated prejudice
against some men whom they think op
pressed Cubans under Spanish rule, and
if given free rein they would make
short work of them. The United States
government is pledged to grant indie
pendence to Cuba after the island has
been pacifed and believe that promise
should be fulfilled as swiftly as we can
in reason and justice. The industrial
situation is improving and money is
gradually going into Cuba, but nothing
like it would if investors were sure
that property would remain safe for
years to come and be protected by Il
government strong enough to enforce
law and order"
