SENATOR BEVERIDGE TALKS ON CUBAN
STATUS At CHICAGO POLITICAL MEETING
Indiana Statesman Says Will Take 900 Troops Year
to Restore Peace Favors American Control of Isla

Fifty thousand troops for at least
one year will be necessary to build
up again the social order which we
once established in Cuba and which
the Cubans themselves have shatter-
ed. Fifty thousand American sol
diers for one year will be nee6ed TO
root out that brigandage which for
decades has had so firm hold on
Cuban soil. Fs
After this has been accomplished
the American administration will run
smoothly without any soldiers at all.
But when we have once more done
that work, we will never again let it
beun done. We have made this
mistake once; we will not make il
twice. If the American flag goes
again to Cuba it goes to stay. We
will return again to the traditional
doctrine that wherever the flag is
raised il shall never be lowered.
