UNCLE SAM MAY ABSORB CUBA
Taft Thinks One More Insurrection
Will End Island Republic.

Washington, Dec. 10 Secretary
Taft has made public a report on
Cuba Summing up the purposes of
the mission to Cuba of himself and
Assistant Secretary of State Bacon
and what was done, Secretary Taft
says:
I'VE went to Cuba for the purpose
of securing peace; when we went we
knew the island was divided between
two hostile and armed forces, and We
desired to avoid a conflict between
them for the reason that it would
cause loss of life to the Cubans and a
great destruction of property, large
part OF which belonged to American
citizens, and it would necessarily re-
quire the Intervention of American
troops and the expenditure of Ameri-
can lives and treasure. If this insur.
rectionary habit persists, if again the
Cubans divide into armed forces, the
strong hand of our government will
have to be imposed at whatever cost
of life and property, and permanent
peace should then certainly ensue, be-
cause it should be of our own keeping.
eve hope, however, that no such
drastic: remedy will be needed and
that the lesson taught in this recent
experience of the evil Of unjust meth
DDS in elections will not be without
it's warning to future governments in
