INTRODUCTION

This report outlines the proposed participation of Puerto Rico in the program of technical assistance to economically underdeveloped areas as proposed by President Truman in tbe now famous "Point Four" of his inaugural address, and detailed in bis message of June 24, 1949 to Congress. The President classifies necessary aid into two general categories: first, the technical, scientific and manage — rial knowledge necessary to economic development; second, the machinery and equipnrient and financial assistance in the creation of productiva enterprises (capital). It is evident that the Island's participation in a program of such a scope is necessarily limitad to the first category sketched by the President. Puerto Rico certainly offers one of the most outstanding instances of an underdeveloped area that is undergoing an exceptionally rapid development, notwithstanding the limitations imposed by its lack of natural resources and its demographic problem. A decade ago the Island would have been considerad a typical \inder-

developed area. Economic cind social prospecta provided then a rather discouraging portrait. However, during the last few years the

Island has made great strides in improving its economic, social and physical conditions as a result of the combinad efforts of its people and its government. Soma of the data included in this bulletin illustrates how the Island

is succeeding in "Operation Bootstrap," as this effort has been labelled by Governor Muñoz Marín. Despite a rapidly increasing population, income has gone up markedly, life expectancy shows a dramatic increase, the death rata is reaching lower lavéis, public services have been considerably augmentad, and agricultural tradition is

being complementad by a proper industrial climate. In short, the econonriic and social indexes point toward an improved standard of

living for the people of the Island.

Now Puerto Rico may properly be callad a country in an intermediate stage of development. This very rapid transition constitutes by itself a valuable experience which could very well be taken advantage of by underdeveloped areas with similar problems.

Furthermore, Puerto Rico's bilingualism offers a decided advantage as a place for Latin Americans who would be eligible for the bene-

fits of the program, but who are handicapped because of their lack of knowledge of English.

A start has been made with fifteen greoits for in-service training, approved by the Department of State and sponsored by the Department of the Interior \mder Public Law 402, 80th Congress. On the

other hand. Puerto Rico has appropriated $50,000 for the organization of the programo entrusting the Planning Board to organize and coordinate it.

Besides an in-service training prograno and specialized instruction, the Islaind has been suggested as a training center for housing, vocational education, labor relations and cooperativism.

DESCRIPTION OF AGENCIES AND TYPE OF TRAINING AVAILABLE

AGRIO UL.TURAL EXPERIMENT STATION

The main f\inction of this Agency is to engage in agricultural research th.at will furnish the necessary basic knowledge for the advancement of the agricultural practices, for the best understanding of the economic

factors affecting agriculture and for the most profitable use and disposition of the agricultural produce of the Island. Incidentally, it contrib utes to the establishment and propagatioii of new and superior vegetable varieties, either imported or locally produced by breeding.

As a government institution it has been engaged also in the study of crops other than sugar cañe, but it was only alter its reorganization in

1931, by recommendation of the Commissioner of Agriculture and Commerce, that specialists in the different crops were secured.

The agency carries out research projects in cooperation with the Office of Experiment Station of the United States Department of Agriculture.

As regards to the coffee program supported by the Adams Fund, it maintains a very cióse cooperation with the Federal Experiment Station at

Mayaguez. In the past it has cooperated with the Bureau of Chemistry and Soils of the U. S. Dept. of Agriculture in the soil survey of che Island and at present it is cooperating with the División of Soil Conservation of

the U. S. Department of Agriculture. The scope of the work performed is very broad and can be outlined under the following headings: Phytology, Entomology, Agrology, Agricultural Engineering, Genetics, Chemistry and Phytotechnics. agricultural EXTENSION SERVICE

The Agricultural Extensión Service was established for the purpose of

developing and directing a program of instruction and assistance to farmers and their families so that the best knowledge of agriculture and home making would be made available to them in their homes and on the farms

at the time they need such information.

The Cooperativé Agricultural work in Agriculture éind Home Economics has been conducted in the several states of the Unión in cooperation with

the United States Department of Agriculture since the passage in 1914 by Congress of the Smith-Lever Act, which provides for such a service.

The Agricultura! Extensión Service of Puerto Rico was established in

November 16, 1933. However, under a cooperative agreement between the U. S. Department of Agriculture and the University of Puerto Rico,

extensión work was conducted in Puerto Rico for severa! years previous to 1934 by the Bureau of Agricultura! Development of the Insular Depart ment of Agriculture and Commerce.

The principal aims of the Agency are to teach farmers how to attain from their farms a satisfactory means of living for themseives and their Ia.milies; to help farm women in their desire or need to improve their homes

and households to make them attractive places for a satisfied healthy family to live in and enjoy, and to teach the farm boys and girls to use the possibilities for employment, profit and enjoyment which the farm and the rural community offer them. The primary function is, thus, to help farm people to help themseives. The most important projects conducted by this Agency are:

Soil Conservation, using both natural and mechanical methóds. Farm and Home program that include the production of the things needed by the farm family; tobáceo production including seed selection, preparation and care of the seed and co operative marketing; production of pleintains, vegetables and various other crops; improvement of coffee plautations, dairy herd improvement, production of swine and poultry and farm production and conservation.

SCHOOL OF TROPICAL, MEDICINE

The primary aim of the School of Tropical Medicine is research, but it alao offers opportunity to study in a tropical environment the cause and prevention of that large and ill-defined group of disorders known as trop ical diseases and at the same time, to observe the influence of tropical conditions on specific diseases.

The School has well equipped laboratorios for bacteriology, pathology, medical mycology and dermatology, clinical medicine, chemistry and medical zoology. These laboratorios are modern in construction and

contain all the conveniences necessary to carry forward a well rounded research program.

Adjoining to the School is the 60 bed University Hospital, dedicated largely to the diagnosis and treatment of special diseases of the tropics and operated as the School's first teaching and research clinic. The first floor is given over to a well organized clinic for the out-patient department, essential in providing the facilities necessary in the selection of cases, clin

ical pathology laboratory, X-ray and urological divisions, together with the administrativo and record offices, examination and consultation rooms,

which are cióse by, these forming an efficient unit. The second and third floors contain the wards and private rooms for the caro of medical suid surgical cases. The third floor also provides air conditioned operating rooms with their necessary dependencies.

The School has made provisión for experimental animals in a newly designed animal house. A section for primates fitted with control inside and outside cages, isolation and operating rooms, is built in the center of two V shaped

wings each 110 feet long. Complete stall space is also available for cattle and horses used in research studies.

In addition, quarters are also provided for animals on the top floor of the new ring, with. special preparation and operating rooms and all necessary conveniences for the care and breeding of animals.

The courses offered are planned primarily for graduates in medicine who

wish special training in tropical medicine and hygiene. The degree of Doctor of Medicine from an approved medical school or satisfactory evidence of adequate preparation for the courses which the applicant desires, will be required in each case. Women are admitted under the same terms as men.

It contains a library with about 14,000 bound volumes indexed and ready for use. More than 170 publications are taken in exchange for the Puerto Rico Journal of Public Health and Tropical Medicine. Over 400 periodicals covering all fields of biological and chemical sciences and the field of public health are regularly received.

The relation between the School of Tropical Medicine and the Department 6f HeaKh makes possible cooperativa studies that would be difficult in a less well developed section of the tropics.

Qualified investigators, wishing either to pursue independent research or to collaborate with the local staff or problems of mutual interest, will be

welcomed. Special attention will be given to workers representing teaching and research institutions.

STATISTICS

In the actual planning for the development of technically-vinderdeveloped countries it will be essential to have information which would provide a barometer of the economic structure of these countries. To this effect,

it will be necessary to gather informatior on population, income, living conditions, prices, employment, unemploymeni ud othe: Statistical work performed by the following agencies is considerad of primary importance to underdeveloped areas: Agi j tultur?' F!xp

UNIVERSITY OF PUERTO RICO

The University of Puerto Rico was organized as-such by legislativo action on March 12, 1903, although its beginnings can be traced back to 1900when a Normal School, designed for the training of public school teachers, was opened at Fajardo with a student body of 20. The Normal School was trans-

ferred the following year to Rio Piedras. Its enrollment went up to 90 with a faculty of 12. During the last 45 years the Normal School has grown up into a University with seven colleges and several dependencias at Rio Pie dras and a College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts at Mayaguez withthree schools, a faculty of approximately 600 and 11,000 students. This number

includes 7,107 regular daytime students at Rio Piedras and 1,563 regular daytime students at Mayaguez. The remainder are students following evening courses at Rio Piedras, and extensión courses primarily for in-service 29

training of teachers, offered at Rio Piedras, Mayaguez, and seven ad-

ditional points throughout the Island. The University of Puerto Rico is a land-grant institution with an Agricul

tura! Experiment Station and an Agricultura! Extensión Service at Rio Piedras. In cooperation with Columbia University, the University of Puerto Rico conducts a gradúate Schoo! of Trópica! Medicine and Pubüc Heaith,

In cooperation with the University of Chicago it operates an Institute of Trópica! Meteorology. The University conducts, besides, an Elementary Schoo! and a High Schoo!, which opérate as mode! units of instruction for the pubüc educationa! system. The University is a state institution and as such has depended primarüy on pubüc financia! support for its operation and growth. This increasing

financia! support has been coupled with a growing appreciation of the desirabiüty of university administrative autonomy. The University !aws of ^924-25 and the present University statute of 1942 are significant in this connection. In 1924 the Legislature of Puerto Rico created the office of Chanceüor and emancipated the University from the control of the Commissioner of Education, who unti! that time had been its administrative

head, ex officio. In 1925, the Legislature provided the University with appropriations intended to create an autonomous source of

revenue and to eüminate the yearly approva! of the University budget by

the Insular Legislature. The !925 !aw provided also for a Board of Trustees of nine members, including the Commissioner of Education, who was its President ex officio, the Commissioner of Agriculture, the Presiden! of the Senate, the President of the House of Representativas, and five other members appointed by the Governor of Puerto Rico with the advice and consent of the Insular Senate.

The 1942 law increased substantially the autonomous income of the Univer sity and eliminated all iegislative and other ex officio representation in the governing board, except that of the Commissioner of Education. It also ex

tended the term of office of the members of this governing board to ten years, and redefined administrative responsibilities within the University.

This law also defined the fundamental functions of the University as follows; "There are hereby declared as cardinal purposes of the University, in its obügation to serve The People of Puerto Rico: To impart higher learning;

To make scientific research in the various fields of learning: To study the fundanñenta! problema of Puerto Rico;

To extend to the people the benefits of culture; To prepare public servants

The aim of the University, as a center of education and as a center of research, is to point out the truth and to instill the methods of knowing it, of testing it, or of doubting it —in an attitude of profound respecttowards creative thought and creativo doubt.

The aim of the University is to utilizo the intellectual and spiritual riches

latent in our people and expressed in the exceptional personalities that arise from the poorest classes, which otherwise could not make the nat ural valúes of their intelligence and of their spirit available to the service of the Puerto Rican community.

In the lofty mission of bringing these purposes to fruition, the University of Puerto Rico shall be considered as the servant of democratic culture

within and outside Puerto Rico, predominantly through its services to the democratic culture of Puerto Rico."

The specific training offered by the University is described in Part IV of the attached Bulletin.
