the United States and Cuba are in a much
more satisfactory condition than the gen
eral public is aware of. The differences
between Uncle Sam and his little godchild

the treaty previously negotiated, and
have insisted on negotiating an entirely
new treaty in Havana Suspicion of any
document prepared in Washington has
become general among the Cubans. until
