In support of their claim to recog nition aa a territory aud to ultimate statehood, the Porto Rican point out that in the 1,4 years since, they passed from Spanish to American soverelga ty tbelr island hag become thoroughly Americanized. Some striking partlcu lars of the thoroughness with which the Ameroanlzation of the island baa progressed were given to a commit tee of the senate some few days ago by Cayetano Coll y Cuetil, a member of the house of delegates, who, with several of his associates, came to Washington aa official representatives of the Insular government to oppose the tree sugar bill, 'which, they de clare, would destroy the Industry on which the prospefftyj of the JslantJ has been chiefly buildup 'since the United State came into control. The total exports' and Imports of Porto' Rico In.: 1901,. three years after the - beginning of - American' occupar tlon, according to the statement of Mr.. Coll y Cucht,,, amounted to. $17, 600.000 and of this about 6Q per. cent was made np of trade with the United States. Then years later, in 1911, the external commerce of the Island waa valued at $18,700,000, made up almost equally of exports and imports, and of this $69,400,000 or 88 per cent was trade, with the United States. . . That the present position of Porto Rico is anomalous la pointed out bri the members of the delegation that came here to aak for territorial rights While enjoying the 'protection .of the American flag and having a satlsfac- mate ntentions with regard to them. "If we are fit to be part of this great nation to which we claim allegiance,' they aay. "le us have the hope of be coming a territory of the United States and In due time become a state. 'If we are not fit for this let ma be come an Independent nation, though for our own part our aspirations are all for a share in the destiny of the American people." ( , Porto Rico la now under the sover eignty of the United States and Is In all Justice entitled to territorial rights of go vernai Int. Arizona and New Mexico were ter ritories of the United States and gov erned as such 50 years, and Alaska has been governed by a territorial form of government many ye$rs. There is no nason why the same right should not be extended to Porto Rico. ' , ' "THIS IS MV 'HH BIRTHDAY." , Glng George V.
