that the Plat amendment continues the
historical policy OF the United States.
A very strange statement to come from
the president Of a great university, The
amendment calls for the cession OF coal
ing stations and the right TO intervene
in its foreign policy and the right to
intervene to settle domestic trouble.
When was this the historical policy Of
the United states until the Plat

had no policy towards Cuba until three
years ago. Prior to that time its policy
towards Cuba was precisely the same
as it's policy towards Spain. Does any
