prendi6 al Scnador americana Hon.
William S. Kenyon, en- los jardines
del Palacio de Santa Catalina. La se-
nora del Senador-algo enferma-y
varios caballeros americanos estaban
esperanto al senor Kenyon, por 10 que
fue impossible hacer una extensa Gin
terview'. Del dialogo habido entire
ell senior Kenyon y nuestro redactor
vamos a entresacar las preguntas Y
respuestas mas interesantes para CO.
nocimiento de nuestros lectores.
--Veo que usted no ha esperado
sus companeros, los veinte y cinco
miembros del Congreso que han de
visitarnos en- breve.
Este viaje-contest6 Mr. Ken
yon--lo habfa proyectado yo mucho
antes de que Sc supiera en- Washing
ton que veinte y cinco congressman"
sc proponfan hacer un viaje Official a
Puerto Rico. Mi esposa yo viaja-
mos por nuestra cuenta, Y ell proxi-
mo lunes saldremos con rumbo a las
islas Virgenes. Nosotros pagamos
todos los gastos de este viaje que rea-
lizamos con ell objeto de conocer per-
sonalmente estas islas. Yo habia dido
hablar mucho acerca de Puerto Rico,
v tenia interes en- conocerlo. Antes
habia estado en- Cuba.
IL Cuanto tempo fa estado usted
en- ell Senado?
-Ocho amos. He escuchado "a Mu-
fioz Rivera, y al sefior Cordoya Davi-
la hablar ante ell Congreso. Muiioz
Rivera hablaba con bastante correc-
ci6n ell ingles. El sefior Cordova tam
bien habla con afiuencia.
-1 Y como piensa usted obtener in
formation sobre Puerto Rico?
El Mundo. [volume] (San Juan, P.R.) 1919-1990, 1919-04-11

-Por todos los niedios posibles.
u Cual es en- su opinion la solu-
cion mas ventajosa para el status"
politico de Puerto Rico?
-Estoy estudiando detenidamente
este asunto.
Entire sus ascendientes, ino hay
alguno que pertenezca la>Faza Ia
tina?
No, senior.
Como entendemos que usted va
a desempefiar la presidencia del CO
mite de asuntos filipinos en- el Senado,
creemos que usted podra satisfacer
nuestra curiosidad sobre un asunto
va muy conocido. Gree usted que
haya en- el Congreso una corriente fa-
yorable a la Independence dc las is
las Filipinas?
-Si, selor. Hay un sentimiento
muy favorable a la Independence de
las islas Filipinas. Como yo he de ser
ell Presidente de ese nuevo comite, no
deseo discutir extensamente este
asunto para fines de publicidad.
-tY acerca de la independence de
Puerto Rico, prevalece ese mismo SEN
timiento?
mo, senior. Yo creo que el senti-
miento en- favor de la independence
de Puerto Rico es muy pequeiio.
(There is very little sentiment in
Congress for Porto Rican indepen-
dence.)
Mr.. Kenyon hablaba con una pro-
funda conviction de todo 10 que decia.
Cuando alguna pregunta la considera-
ba de alguna responsabilidad la re-
hula abiertamente. Confeso que era
refractario a las interviews.

that Fuss Junior was making
a call on the Pussy Cat who lived
next door 10 Mr.. Tittlemouse. Well
after PusS Junior had taken a seat
in the sitting room, he said in a
gentle voice:
II like little Pussy
Her coat is so warm,
Its soft and so glossy
And just fits her form.
She uses her tail
A. q muff for her feet.
And always she's cleaning
Her face to be neat"
This pleased Miss Pussy 80 much
that she brought out some cake and
cream, and didn't Puss Junior have
a lovely feast? And after he had
made her promise not to hurt Mr..
TittlemOusc, he started off again
on his journey to find his father.
and by and by, as he was trudg-
ing along a dusty road. he came to
a spring. and a. he was thirsty he
took a drink and then sat down to
rest.
And while he sat there a big hay
wagon drove by. and when III"

money interfere, and do YOU think
I really love him? \. Is. &.

Pneumonia
Question
By Brice Belden, NJ. D.

IN connection with our problems
or reconstruction. the question
OF public health is one Of the
most important of all--if not act
ually the most important.
For some time TO come The people
are going to be especially liable to
infectious disease. The influenza
example is still before US. OF course,
this has been associated closely
with war conditions, but the cOndi-
tiOus OF reconstruction will not diff
fer greatly for a while from those
OF war.
The spring months arc approach
ing, and il is then that pneumonia
always takes its greatest toll What
are We to expect this Year, after the
recent ravages of this disease out
at its usual season? Undoubtedly
the vast resultant increase in tho
number Of pneumonia CCarriers,"
and the malnutritiOn due 10 prof
itecrinC will favor an abnormal in
crease Of the disease during the
regular pneumonia months.
Dr. Mahcr. president Of the Con-
nc"ticut Public Health Association,
asks: "OG what protection will q

BE- So long as even one member Of
the family spends three to six hours
week in a street OF subway car
m which the iucipiCntly sick and
the well and the CouvaIcScing are
packed 50 tightly together that
neither those Who sit nor those who
stand can move hand or fout?"
II seems rather futile 10 preach
hygiene and sanitation 10 the peu-
pie 80 long as such fragrant abuses
persist

society certainly ought To- include
