tau, que ha circulado hoy pro-
fusamente, va a plantear una
question de relativa impOrtan-
cia para nosotros, de grande y
exceptional interes para los re-
publicanos de Puerto Rico.
De relativa importancla para
nosotros, porque no creemos que
los republicanos, nj ninguno de
los partidos politicos puertorrl-
pueflos tengan perfectamente
defnido I'm programa, con solu-
clones econonicas, y ESQ es 10
que al pals y a nosotros nos i'm
porta mas Ell las actuales Cir
cuustancias; asi sus movlmlen-
tos practicados en- unO Q ell Otro
sentido, mientras no sean d1rec-
tamente encaninados E indiso-
lublemente unidos, al fin que
aconsela e indica el supreme in
teres de la raza que vive en-
Puerto Rico. no pueden mere
Ger nuestras totales simpat1as,
nj enthusiasts aplausos. Vemos,
senCillamente, 10 que Ocurre.
Juzgamos en- vista de los suce-
SOS. Analizamos la situaci0n y
exponemos nuestro criterio. pc
TO sin que pueda quitarle I'm
atOmO de Su reCOnOcida impair
cialidad, Ell interes que no exis-
te para nosotros, en- uingura dc
las agrupaciones politicas, cuan-
do no trabajan por ell bien su
premo del pals, unica y absolu-
tamente.
Y tiene el manifesto del Sc.
nor Degetau, importancia ex..
traordinaria para los republlCa-
nos, porque ahora Sc va a plan

me ha debido hacerse antes, 81

esa incorporation que han lla-
mado definitiva sus defensOres.
Hemos dicho que Sc va a
plantear y Sc va a resolver ese
asunto, Y no pecamos de ligeroS
al hacer tai afrmacior.
Porque Ell manifesto del Sc
nor Degetau esta dirigido a los
republicanos puertorriquenos; y
este sin duda. squiere expresar,
9 que MEGA en- absolute el CO.

una agrupacion, una desmem-
bracion republican, puertorri =
quefa a la que sc dirige el Sc
nor Degetau en- su manifesto
gallardamente escrito y rebo-
sante de logica.
Mas bien creemos 10 primero,
aunque, de todos mo1os, sobre
el partido republicano Sc dibu-
jan las seflales de I'm cont1icto
de suma y acentuada gravedad.
liable a los suyos, como ST no
hubiese ocurrido NADIA, 9 dirijase
a una disidencia considerable y
respectable, como debe ser para
que en- ella fie la reelercion el
seflor Degetau. no Sc aminOra
en- NADIA la gravedad que anne
naza al partido republican,.
De NADIA ha de servirle la
contumacia al directorio, puesto
que no sc trata en- los aCtuales
momentos de sostener TN pu gi-
lato de caractereS eXtrauOs, Sino
de aclarar, conforme 10 desea el
pals pendiente de 10 ocurrido,
cual es la situacion de una par

que1a, dentro del miedo que ha
provocado ell tenor y la incerti-
dumbre en- TN momento indeci-
so Y desconCertadOr.
Quedan obligados a cantar la
palinodia los sehores que defen-

que no cabe la duda mas leve

importante. en- 10 que tome par

documento a que nos vamos re-
friendo.
Cuando sc repongan del estu-
por, de la sorpresa, del susie
que debe haberles producido a
los jefes del publicanismo ell
manifesto del seflor Degetau,
no tendran mas remedio que po-
nerse a buscar medios de arreglo
para poner termino a ia peliagu-
da y difcilisima situacion en-
que los coloca el cartel de reto
del Comisionado.
va que no sois infalibles, no
seals contumaces, parece dec1r-
les ell senor Degetau. Y en- sus
palabras dichas en- tonO suave,
hay un acento de amenaza tre-
menda, agena al proposito de la
advertencia, pero indlsoluble-
mente ligada a sus francas de-
Claraclones.
Inesperada ha sido la salida
del seflor Degetau. Divisa banjo
todos en- la oposicion. Fuera
del partido 10 juzgaban sus CO.
rreligionarios y asi 10 considero
tambien su rival Ell senior F>ajar-
do Ell la conversation que tuvo
con TN periodista. Ell manifes-
to tenia que ser a manera de

Llama TRACTION a la

de la incorporation y sostiene
por sobre todos los intereses de
la metropoli, los intereses regio-
males, los de la colonia, los de la
Isla.
En- esas condolences y en- esos
terminus, redactado y concebido
el manifesto del senior Degetau,
no cabe contestarlo con guasas
nj desplantes, nj con un portazo
dado en- las narices, nj con un
decreto olimp1co de expulsion
contra quien no quiere mar
charse y en- uso de su voluntad
liberrima y de su derecho indis-
