Excerpt from The United Fruit Company in Latin America
I call attention especially to such constructive steps as are exemplified in the founding of the Escuela Agri'cola Panamericana al Zamorano. Honduras. By the President of the United Fruit Company in 1942. This is but one of many instances in which the foresight of enlightened business leaders has resulted in practical measures and in the type of collaboration which is bound to strengthen the bonds of inter-american economic. Social. And cultural relations.
