SummaryResumen

A feature calls Santo Domingo the garden of the western tropics, with soil for cocoa, tobacco, tropical fruits, sugar cane, coffee, vanilla and rubber, mahogany forests in its mountainous interior, and constant verdure, and says that freed from its financial incubus it need not lag behind its sister republics. It then traces the career of President Carlos F. Morales, born at Puerto Plata to a prosperous merchant's family, ordained a priest after seminary study, who renounced the priesthood after eight years, edited an opposition newspaper, was arrested and narrowly escaped being shot, lived through revolt and exile, served in Congress and as governor of Puerto Plata, and last year headed the movement that drove out Jiminez and Wos y Gil and assumed control, proclaiming an election for next June.

Un reportaje llama a Santo Domingo el jardín de los trópicos occidentales, con suelo para cacao, tabaco, frutas tropicales, caña de azúcar, café, vainilla y caucho, bosques de caoba en su interior montañoso y verdor constante, y dice que libre de su peso financiero no tiene por qué quedarse atrás de sus repúblicas hermanas. Después recorre la carrera del presidente Carlos F. Morales, nacido en Puerto Plata en la familia de un comerciante próspero, ordenado sacerdote tras estudiar en un seminario, quien renunció al sacerdocio después de ocho años, editó un periódico de oposición, fue arrestado y escapó por poco de ser fusilado, vivió entre revueltas y exilios, sirvió en el Congreso y como gobernador de Puerto Plata, y el año pasado encabezó el movimiento que expulsó a Jiminez y a Wos y Gil y asumió el control, proclamando una elección para el próximo junio.
