.EL NITIN DE Los TEGNOLO-
Cos AzUCAREROS
por E. s. EARLE

Ell primer mitin publico de la Aso-
ciaci6n de Tecn6logos Azucareros de
Puerto Rico, recientemente -organiza-
da, Sc llev6 a cabo en- San Juan Ell on
ce de JUNO. Creo que todos aquellos que
estaban presentes convendran en- que
fue un gran exito desde todos los pun
tos de vista; en- Ell nlmero de miembros
presente, la alta calidad de los traba-
jos que Sc leyeron, y especialmente en-
ell inter6s general y bien conservado q.
Sc mantuvo durante dos largas sesio-
mes. Ell que escribe ha asistido mu-
chos mitines de esta indole, en- la Is
la, en- Cuba en- diferentes sitios de
los Estados Unidos, pero ninguno de
estos donde .ha asistido han demostra-
do ser mas satisfactorios, nj promet1an
resultados mas importantes.
Los jovenes tecnologos portorriQue-
nos que empezaron esta organization
merecen ser congratulados. Aunque con
cedieron al que escribe 10 presente, el
honor de nombrarle presidente, la mi
ciativa y ell trabajo de la organization
Sc debe todo a ellos, y ellos pertelle-
ce todo el credito por Ell exito alcanza-
do. Creo que la Isla entera, asi como
tambien la Industria Azucarera debe
congratularse de haber desarrollado un
cuerpo tecnico tan active inteligente.

El extenso plan alta calidad de
los trabajos lefdos demuestra, que los
miembros de la Association estan pre-
parados son competentes para resol-
yer cualquier problema, no importa 10
intricado y tecnico que sea, que pue-
, da presentarse en- relaci6n con la In
dustria AzucaTera- de Puerto Rico.
! Ell que escribe aprovecha esta oca-
sion para suplicar a aquellos caballe-
ros que prepararon trabajos que no
alcanz6 ell tempo para darles lectura,
que 10 perdonen. Cuando me df cuenta
de que la acogida que Sc lie dio los
esfuerzos hechos por Ell comite de pro-
grama habia sido mayor que 10 que Sc
esperaba que seria impossible dar lee
tura todos los trabajos que Sc habian
preparado, intencionalmente deje pa
ra 10 tlltimo aquellos escritos relacio-
nados con ell cultivo de la cana con Ell
fin de sugerir al comite de progratna
que Sc les diese preferencia a este i'm
portante t6pico en- Ell mitin que Sc lle-
vara a cabo en- diciembre Los asuntos
reiacionados con Intermediates Y varie
dades de cana fueron ampliamente ira
