sa de San Juan, es de esperar que ell Sc
nador Shafroth ha de hacer un buen
acopio de datos Nosotros sugeririamos
a los que tengan el proposito de infor-
mar que 10 hicieran por escrito y, ma
turalmente en- ingles.
De esta manera, la entrevista ganaria

pudiera perder.
Pero Sc comprendera facilmen-
te que no es cosa de abrumar al ilustre
visitante con alardes de elocuencia que
por la diversidad de lenguas habrlan de
resultar fallidos, sino de facilitarle una
information documentada precisa y
cuanto mas breve y condesada, mejor,
para que moditique ell criterio que
del problema azucarero habla tornado
de esta modification surjan las debi-
das reparaciones.
