Notes


Pedro Capo-Rodriguez

Worked at Carnegie Endowment for International pease in DC in 1918.

Wrote a letter to the editor of The Washington Post on February 12, 1917 protesting the legislation of Puerto Rican required citizenship to ensure loyalty. ". . . However high the authority may be for the suggestion that the loyalty of Porto Ricans is contingent upon the passage of the legslation in question. I for one, as a Porto Rican, must protest against it as a gratuitous and unjustifiable imputation absolutely undeserved by the Porto Rican people.
