70 MS strong appeal to the island re-
public to stop political warfare and
restore economic order.
The president carefully withheld
open Intervention in the interest OF
bringing about peace and happier
times by the policy Of mediation.
IN plain words to Senior Oscar Gin
tas, official ambassador Of President
Gerardo Machado, Roosevelt sent
word to Cuba that "the problems OF
starvation and Of depression are OF
such immediate importance that ev-
cry political problem should be met
m the most patriotic spirit In order
70 improve conditions at the earliest
possible moment"
Roosevelt gave this final opportun-
'ty to the president of Cuba and his
government to restore conditions
while the governments Of foreign ma
IONS were protesting to the United
states about injury to their nation
as and damage to their property IN
II Is known, unoffficially here, that
GREAT Britain and Spain made these
protests. Roosevelt, however. does not
regard armed force as the way to 90
.lllngs. He Is seeking new order by
peaceful methods.
