Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Panama Canal and the Commerce of the Caribbean: Address of the Honorable Philander C. Knox, Secretary of State, at the Annual Banquet of the California Development Board in San Francisco, California, May 7, 1912 Mr. Chairman, Ladies, and Gentlemen: On a recent official visit to the countries of the Caribbean I enjoyed the privilege and advantage of personal association with the men who control their destinies. I am filled with appreciative recollections of the good will with which those Latin-American peoples testified, through me, their warm feeling for the people of my country. Impressed with the deep interest there shown in the achievement of the centuries-old dream of an interoceanic waterway through Caribbean territory, it becomes now an even greater privilege, on returning home, to speak also to my countrymen of the Pacific coast of the great work which is soon to be appropriately commemorated here in your beautiful city the Queen of the Eastern Pacific.
