changed for Islands Opposed to Exchange

Approximately one person in every seven (15%) said he was undecided on the question or had no opinion. The whole issue of the British and French holdings in the Caribe bean was catapulted into public discussion last month by Senator Ernest Lundeen (F. L. Minn.), who urged that the United States seize the islands, by force if necessary. Less violent, the Havenner Bill would merely authorize the opening of negotiations for a possible peaceful cession of the islands, which include Jamaica, Trinidad, Guadeloupe Barbados and the hundreds of islands and islets in the Bahama group. After payments and adjustments Great Britain still owes the United States about $5,342,000,So while France owes $4,141,000,-

The chief reason put forward by American voters who favor trading the island for the war debts is that “America will never be paid

in any other way.” Fully twothirds of all persons commenting in the survey say that the United States should get “at least something” for its outstanding loans.

. America’s interest in the Caribbean area was indicated in a previous Institute survey, in which 72 per cent said they thought the United States should fight any invasion of the area by a European power. ' The last time the United States undertook political responsibilities in this area was in 1917, however, when the Virgin Islands were purchased

from Denmark for $25,000,000.

Those opposed to exchanging the islands for the war debt comment that the debts should be paid in cash or that “we have enough territory to worry about already.” “We'd just have that many more on the WPA,” is the remark of a Pennsylvania voter, typical of many opposing the transfer. The greatest sentiment for making the exchange is found in the South the survey shows—T73 per cent favoring the transfer. '
