Le que dice Sanchez Morales
ACLARACIoNEs

no de ellos es federal. Esa comisi6n hizo la
labor que pndo al llegar Washington en- vfs
peras de la clausura del Congreso, 1nica au-
torldad que podia anular ell bill HolIander
La Junta, pues, no ha enmudectdo arrepen.
tldd Clausuradas las Camaras no ha tenido
mas remedio que aguardar que estas vuelvan
reunirse para reanudar sus trabaios
En- cuanto al Partdo Federal, proclam6
por ese tempo por medic d su prensa, que ell
principle de la contribution, sustituyendo ell
capital la renta, era aceptabe pero que ell
bill no 10 era por la forma de la tasaci6n exac-
cion por los arbitros que Sc creaban Que
serfan la muerte de las industrias, especial
mente del ron el tabaco, que constituyen
parte de nuestros principales productos
Ha pasado tempo despues de las gestiones
hechas contra Ell bili ahora ell Partido Fede-
raj ha creido conveniente sustituir su poftica
de retraimIento con otra mas actva. 5Quiare
decirnos el senor Sanchez Morales en- Que se re-
laclona esta actitud pof:ica de nuestro parti-
do ;on los trabajos de impugnaci6n del bill Ho-
lander?
Recuerde Sanchez Morales, aunoue este
destruya ell efecto de su cOn0r0tuLQci0n, Que
ese bill 10 acePt6 ei partido republicano no por
convenclmlento slnO por la neceStddd de obede.
Ger los mandates del goblerno. Tenga presen-
te que el se1or Crosas, republican, tdpddo, bizo
en- ell Consejo la oposcon ese bill; no oyi.
de 10 que ocurri6 aquella fqmos0 votaci6n
nocturna de las Camsras de representatives. en-
la que el reloj p1bIfco anduvo algo atrasado. v
Ia que tuvo que concurrir Ell doctor Barbosa
imponer IA discipline y la necesidad de apro-
sentantes.
ST ell bill Hollander Sc ha hecho materia
polftica ha sido para ell partido republicapo;
para Ell federal fu6 ina question econ6mi-
ca de inter6s general, en- Ia que cada uno de
sus adeptos piensa seg6u su juicio, uni6ndose
con elementos adnes para apoyarla comba-
tira.
Confundir este con la actual conducta no
itica del partido federal, no es propio de un
r"cto criterfo nj de un po1tico de buena fe
sino de sofistica augmentation.
Por 10 demas, muy aventurado es procla-
mar las excelencias del bill HolIander Ell
dnico dato favorable hasta ahora es ell del
Mensaje del Gobernador, sobre cobranza de
arbtrios; pero ell aumento de la recaudaci6n
no demuestra el de la production, por 10 cre-
cido del impuesto. En- cambo la fabrication
de ron tabaco esta cast paralizada 81 los
contribuyentes pueden pagar con desahogo las
Quotas del bill y las adicionales de los arbtrios
municipales; 81 con la aplicaci6n del bill las
industrias forecen hay trabajo para los
ooreros ganancas para los industriales; 81
