4 think that the sentiment of the peo-
pie at large as reflected in the public
press is undoubtedly in favor OF a suit
able reduction in the tariff rates. and I
think that this overwhelming popular sen
timent must soon impress itself upon
Congress and overcome the opposition to
the reduction
Il am well acquainted with many gen
tlemen who are members OF either the
Senate OF the House, and know them to
be honorable gentlemen, absolutely fden-
titled with the wishes of the people they
represent
The tariff reduction will undoubtedly
De a great aid to us in all our present
work for Cuba, which is largely the re-
storation, reconstruction. and develop
ment Of the many industries which we
hope viii flourish On the island.
Give Cuba encouragement and we have
