Conditions Which Forced Intervention
When the United States, in Janu.
airy, 1899, assumed control of the af-
fairs of the Island of Cuba it was
bound by a specific pledge, made by
Congress, as follows:
THAT the United States hereby
disclaims any disposition or intent to
exercise sovereignty, jurisdiction or
control. over said island, except for
the pacification thereof, and asserts
its determination, when that is &C.
complished, to leave the government
and control of the island to it's PEG.

When, in conformity with the
above pledge, the Government was
transferred to the people of Cuba,
May 20, 1902, the following right
was reserved by Article III. of the
Platt amendment:
THAT the Government of Cuba
consents that the United States may
exercise the right to intervene for the
preservation of Cuban independence,
the maintenance of a government ad.
for the protection of life,
property and individual liberty and
for discharging the obligations with
respect to Cuba imposed by the
Treaty of Paris on the United States,
now to be assumed and undertaken
by the Government of Cuba"
For the cas- that the island has
fallen into a state clearly within the
above provisions it has become the
duty of this country to play once
more the part of the friend and pro-
tector of Cuba. The established
Government has confessed it's in
ability to maintain peace and order
and afford due protection to life and
property. President Palma's ap-
peals to Washington for American
aid have been insistent. A state
