This feature describes Macoris, where thousands of acres are devoted to sugar cane, millions of dollars of American capital are invested, and the plantations, equipped with the most modern machinery, are worked by coloured labourers from the English and Danish West Indies. It then tours the capital, Santo Domingo City, with the ruins of the first church, San Nicolas, the house of Diego Colon, the ceiba tree to which Columbus's caravels were tied, and a macadam boulevard running twenty miles toward Bani, and insists the climate is healthy, with no serious epidemic since the cholera outbreak of the early sixties.
