1947. CUBA, Acquisition by United States.—
I candidly confess, that I have ever
looked on Cuba as the most interesting addition
which could ever be made to our system
of States. The control which, with Florida
Point, this island would give us over the
Gulf of Mexico, and the countries an isthmus
bordering on it, as well as all those whose
waters flow into it, would fill up the measure
of our political well-being.—
