He also speaks enthusiastically of the
thousands of new schools established in the
most remote regions in which literacy was
an exception five years ago and is now the
rule, a monumental work that has brought
knowledge and the ability to acquire more
education to more than 100000 Children and
adults; The Civic Military Institute, with
one Superior Neurological Center at Ceiba

mission, TO be presided by me and COM
posed of the Ministers of State. Justice and
of National Defense, and of all the Ministers,
without portfolio, for the purpose of pre-
pairing a Bill, in accord with the leaders Of
the Government Parties. to place in the
hands Of the Executive Department, within
the bounds Of the Constitution, such powers
as may be necessary to the accomplishment
Of the ends expressed.
"The President. like every other Cuban,
is anxious to avoid war His great aspira-
tion is peace, the noblest Of mans desires.
No act of provocation, then, will come from
our part. We will not be drawn into con-
flict by boastful acts of our own, nor will
such a result come of our choice. War will
not be born of our sentiments.
But, should circumstances and necessity
force us into it, the events Of humanitys
present tragic hour pressing upon us, Cuba.
as one of the American Nations will be
found by the side of the United States in
defense of the ideals of liberty, democracy
and justice"
Cuba's position, therefore, has been clearly
determined
On one hand, an unequiv0cal declaration
Of democratic sentiment has been made On
the other she has declared her determined
will to serve the interests and solidarity of
America without hesitation and by the side
of the United States. in accord with the
doctrines of international contracts and
with the spirit Of the Cuban conscience.

Along these lines DIR. Rodriguez Pintado
has gotten all the Governors and Mayors
together number of times for inter-
change Of views and to inform them of
plans of the President which have met
the warm approval Of all the local heads
Of government.
Recently, for the first time in Cuba, a
great assembly of the heads Of the local
governments was held in the City of Trini-
dad. Santa Clara Province. important reso-
lutions for the welfare of the Municipalities
and the benefit Of the inhabitants Of many
of Cubas towns were adopted.
second assembly of Mayors has already
been announced, to be held in Ciego de
Avila. Camaguey Province from which even
greater benefits are expected. especially in
street improvements, sanitation, lighting
police vigilance and other urgent matters,
among more effective use Of municipal
funds.
Dr. Rodriguez Pintado has accomplished
much already in normalizing the admins
trative life Of many cities and bringing
discipline and obedience to governmental
dispositions, especially those requiring strict
accounting for public monies.

ton was held by Ambassador and

ington, members of the Alliance
Franchise as well as number Of
advanced students of French were
invited to these affairs. For two
years. 1888 and 1899, M. Jacques
Truelle, Minister-C Counselor of the
Embassy, acted as host for the Am
bassador at the afternoon reception
arranged at the Embassy to celebrate
Bastile Day. These parties were
among the very delightful fetes of
the summer season in Washington
and M. Truelle received on the wide
terrace overlooking the typically
French garden at the west of the
house. Refreshments appropriate to
the tea hour were served in the
garden. Speeches were barred, the
host offering toast to the con-
tlnued friendship of France and the
United States.
The 1888 anniversary was marked
with much gayety in New York,
where Count de St. Quentin gave a
dinner party preceding the French
ball at the Waldorf Astoria.
This year the anniversary will be
observed but the reception will not
be marked by spirit of celebrati ton.
