Dominican Republic Boom in 1914 Exports Noted
The Pan American Union bulletin cites Dominican Republic as a rare exception to Western Hemisphere trade declines during the European war. It reports export value rising from 1913 to 1914 despite reduced imports, with extensive sugar cane plantations, American investment, and a modern capital Santo Domingo featuring relics of Columbus, colonial ruins, and a growing foreign colony.
