SAN JUAN, P. R., Aug. 29.-Thou-
sands Of Porto Ricans all over the
Island are holding meetings and sign
ing petitions requesting President
Wilson to select governor of Arizona,
the Hon. Geo. w. P. Hunt, as gov
ernor Of Porto Rico.
The trade unionists and fraterna!
societies are taking active part in the
cam aign. It has been stated here
that the labor unions of the states
and President Gompers of the AM
erican Federation Of Labor will favor
the stand taken by the Porto Ricans.
The unfortunate workers of the is
land complain that local authorities
have denied them every right guar
anteed under the Porto Rico Organic
Act, and that strikes have been sup
pressed; strikers being dubbed and
jailed when they suspended work to
enforce a living wage. Thousands of
these workers employed in raising
and manufacturing sugar are being
paid an average wage of IS cents for
ten hours work. The women get an
average of IS cents and the children
30 cents per day.
Pleased With President.
The workers Of the island and the
people in general are very pleased
with the news received from Wash
| ington regarding the appointment: ~of
commission by PRESIDENT Wilson
to investigate the deplorable eco
nomic and industrial conditions that
prevail down there. The people of
| Porto Rico want a fundamental change
in the public affairs Of the coun-
! try.
AS a "colony," Porto Rico is a
factory work out by industrial
serfs." The 70 per cent of the wealth
created by the Porto Rico workers
is going out of the country to "ab-
sente" profiteers. "
In accordance with the Organic
act approved recently by congress
the Porto Ricans are declared citi-
zens OF the United States; but a more
decent decision of the United States
supreme court ruled that the consti.
tuition of the nation "does not apply
to the people of Porto Rico; not.
withstanding more than 10000 islam.

than fourteen thousand are now IL
