SummaryResumen
The *Birmingham age-herald* reported that Senator Medill McCormick recommended completing the Dominican North-South highway to stimulate commerce and prevent future insurrections, thereby facilitating American withdrawal. To offset revenue declines caused by the post-war trade depression, the committee advised issuing a new loan to consolidate two outstanding short-term debts. McCormick reported that outside of localized banditry in the east, the military administration had established unprecedented domestic peace while modernizing municipal sanitation, docks, and public education.

A fin de compensar la caída de ingresos provocada por la depresión comercial de posguerra, la comisión aconsejó emitir un nuevo préstamo para consolidar dos obligaciones pendientes a corto plazo. McCormick afirmó que, al margen de partidas aisladas de bandolerismo en el este, la administración militar había instaurado una paz interna sin precedentes a la vez que modernizaba el saneamiento municipal, los muelles y la educación pública.
