Robert Giles. Principal Assistant EnEi-
nCtT SAYS in regard To Porto RiC8n roads:
The principal work done during the
wear was the construction of public roads
in the Island Of Porto Rico. These roads
were constructed from two apprOpria-
lions. namely. 2OO.Gw- from the 'emergen-
Cy fund. War Department and $4,000
from the fund 'refundlng customs revenue
collected from Porto Rico, for the relief
OF its Government and people
Some good roads existed in the island
at the time of the American occupation,
notably the Military Road extending from
San Juan 10 Ponce, with branch from
Cayey TO Guayama, the roads from Ca
tano to Toa Alta. from Ponce Is kilO-
metres toward Adjuntas. and from Rio
Piedras to Carolina. These were. how
ever. entirely insufficient for the needs Of
the island. particularly in handling the
upland crops Of coffee and tobacco. The
sugar crop. growing in the low coastal
plains. was nearer the ports of shipment.
and had less need of good roads. but is
nevertheless much aided by their con-
StructIon-
The type Of road 10 be constructed was
a matter Of much thought, whether to
construct narrow, cheap roads Of great
length or better road of ample width
with less length. II was decided 20 build
roads Of the best type giving a perma-
u,ut highway suitable for all future needs
as far as the funds permitted, and leave
the extension in length 20 future appro-
uriati0Us for several reasons.
The work on an of the roads has been
excellent and tn" result rs Of much bet
ter quality than that executed by the
Spanish authorities. in location. in ma
sOuTy foundations. and In quality of road
bed The new roads are deficient in
bridges which in many cases had TO be
omitted owing TO the lack Of funds.
