Consular Service Proposed for Cuba by Roosevelt
President Roosevelt urges Congress to establish diplomatic and consular representation in Cuba soon after the Spanish regime ends. He outlines ranks and salaries for Envoy Extraordinary, Minister Plenipotentiary, secretary of legation, consul general in Havana and consuls at Cienfuegos and Santiago de Cuba. He notes limited basis for predicting Cuba’s postindependence development and envisions pacts to boost trade. The move aims to safeguard American interests and protect citizens.
