of the Americas to utilize properly
their political rights.
Mrs. Guam, who comes from Qua.

She indicated the commission

such pressing problems as the cri-

Mrs. Guam told a news confer
ence that elements in the crisis are
juvenile delinquency, the unwed
mother and a lack of proper re-
sponsibility in some fathers.
She said this crisis is the most
general problem facing the Amer
lean women and said she would
like to see a seminar organized

as soon as the measure was adopted. ~
Without engaging in considerations of technical order,
that is, without anaizing the matter from a merely ~juridical

send that military guard outside of the Base or not; and
whether there was respect for the requirements established
in the Treaty or Covenant which has made possible the
existence OF u. 5. naval forces in Guantanamo, the measure
of putting under military vigilance the water supply plant,
is extremely delicate, taking into consideration the serious
political and revolutionary crisis Cuba is facing.
The Washington Government must understand the
seriousness implied in that fact, because it has, politically,
a dangerous tranScendence, both before the Cuban people
and Latin American public opinion i'm general. This is
not at all convenient for the relations between the United
States and the sister Republics of the continent, which are
in need of improvement in their present status, not as
satisfactory as it should be.
1t is logical to expect that adequate measures should
be taken to prevent a shortage of drinking water at the
Guantanamo Naval Base, but this does not mean that the
only way to protect 1t is to send a military detachment to the
plant, which is located at a distance of several miles from
