‘HIGH COURAGE’ PLEA IS MADE BY ROOSEVELT Review of Conditions Given by Governor, Talking to Porto Ricans. BY W. F. O’REILLY United Press Staff Correspondent SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, Feb. 11.— Speaking in the Spanish he has acquired since his appointment as governor of Porto Rico. Colonel Theodore Roosevelt delivered his first message to the island Monday night in a 6,000-word speech to the insular legislature. Colonel Roosevelt minced no words. He told of conditions as he had found them in his visits to seventy-three towns on the island. He told of the shaky financial condition and the efforts to recover from the economic chaos caused, in part, by the hurricane of 1928. ‘‘We not only must have high courage,” he said, “but clear heads and absolute Iranfcness. We must see things as they are.” The Governor recommended two general solutions to the present economic problems, “economy in administration and rehabilitation.” Roosevelt suggested passage a municipal law prepared by a committee of assemblymen in San Juan recently. The bill would consolidate several departments, and rearrange the governmental system of the island's " seventy-seven municipalities. Twenty administrative zones would be created, but the identity of the towns would not be disturbed. Among other requests of the Governor were these: Funds for a homestead commission to buy unused lands and turn them over to unemployed farmers

He urged creation of a bureau of commerce to function directly under him, with an a/tent in New York and publicity men to inform America of this island's advantages. He asked for a liberal attitude toward incoming industries, and for publicity to increase tourist traffic to the* island. The Governor announced that, “to keep faith with the people,” the government should attempt payment, in part at least, of $850,000 in outstanding awards under the workman’s compensation laws. Discharge of a salaried school board and the substitution of unpaid directors, was suggested.
