Navy to expand Isla Grande base in Puerto Rico
The navy plans to spend about 24 million dollars to develop Isla Grande in San Juan harbor into a first class air base with docks, breakwaters, fuel dumps, and machine shops. The upgrade aims to base one carrier group and two patrol squadrons, with supporting bases on St Thomas and Coco Solo Panama, extending Caribbean surveillance and deterring European activity.

The piece contrasts fear with bold living, recounting Violet Kemple Cooper overcoming stage nerves with a NY seaside town pep talk. It then profiles Louis Decottignies of San Francisco who traveled worldward for about six to eight months on roughly $1000 in transport and $500 for food and lodging, wearing a 50 cent shirt, with no family or debts, living now rather than dreaming.
