This article focuses on the desire for liberty among Puerto Ricans. The needless bloodshed in Ponce, Puerto Rico, due in part to official blundering, which has just cost ten lives, again forces to the front the question of the independence of that island. Many, many Puerto Ricans are thinking seriously and talking quietly, without agitation, about independence, continental Americans living on the island, too because they say that the present situation cannot continue, that it is getting despite the Puerto Rican Relief Administration's work.
