THE COST OF THE CAROLINA

DORTO RICAN resentment over, the
l. destruction of the Carolina is one more
demonstration of the stupidity of German
terrorism. At no time since the war began
has the patriotic fervor of our island pos
session been so wildly crystallized as now.
The loss of one of the finest ships in the
New York-San Juan trade has aroused in
our West indian outpost a storm of indig.
nation eliminating in a bitter anti-German
demonstration in Ponce, Here once again
is the old story of the greater the bar
barity the more powerful the stimulus to
civilizations fighting spirit.
Our Governments profit from the present
situation is specific. With several thou.
sands of the islanders now mustered under
our flag, Porto Rico's loyalty is indisputa-
BILE. but the new ardor prompted by init.
mate and tragic concern with the struggle
can still further aid us in the difficult task
of watching the Caribbean. The German
submarines are said TO nave crossed by the
West Indian route. Porto Rico's magnif-
cent strategic position can be made even
more valuable to US by the increased watch
fainess Of her inhabitants.

There are occasions when the military

military-mindedness of the German which
