From Butte to Cuba visit to Jamestown admonitions
A fragmentary report recalls Judge W G Speer of Butte and Mrs Speer returning from Cuba and the southern states. It criticizes Jamestown Expo for poor planning while detailing Florida convict labor abuses and the lack of sewerage in Havana. The piece contrasts American enterprise with European influences and notes transportation frustrations and rising prices at the Jamestown site.
