T/ie ancient fortress of El Morro occupies the headland of San Juan, Capital of Puerto Rico and major metropolis of the Commonwealth. Situated 1,000 miles southeast of Miami and 1,600 from New York, San Juan is only 5V2 hours by air from New York and less than four from Miami. Beyond El Morro, above, may be seen the bu.siness and

financial section and the harbor, main port of entry for Puerto Rico. Suburban residential and shopping areas are in the background.

SAN JUAN—Capital of Puerto Rico San Juan, Capital of Puerto Rico, has come a long way from its early days as a fortress town of the Spanish Main. Its strategic location was recognized early by the Spaniards, who established a colony here in 1521. San Juan is

thus the oldest city within the United States of America.

Still possessed of all its old world charm, San Juan has grown over the centuries, until it is now a center of sea- and air-borne commerce and in

dustry—a city covering an area of AlVi square miles. It has a population of 465,000, making it one among the 20 largest cities of the United States. Its

harbor, enclosed by the city, is excellent, and its new airport is one of the finest in the United States.

San Juan has interests that are immensely varied and diverse. It is the seat

of Puerto Rican government and it bears the official title "Capital of Puerto Rico." The Commonwealth and municipal government services form a vital

and flourishing part of its activities. Sizable military establishments are main tained by the armed forces of the United States. San Juan is a center of learning and its schools are noted for studies of the

tropical diseases of men, animals, and plants. It is a research headquarters for crop diversification and the improvement of sugar cane cultivation. Public education receives a substantial portion of the Commonwealth budget. This program is reflected in public school enrollment from 286,000 in 1940 to 505,000, in 1954, an increase of 76 per cent.

J

Industry now is rounding out the economy of San Juan and of the entire Commonwealth, under a carefully administered program of attracting new

enterprises. The only sensible answer to the population pressure of the densely settled area was recognized early in the last decade as industrialization. Hun n

f\

dreds of new plants have been established and older ones are thriving as a result of these far-siehted efforts.


The Government of Puerto Rico has its seat in San Juan. As a result, a substantial part of the }>overn-

ment's expenditures for services and supplies are made in San Juan and contribute significantly to (he capi tal's economy. The principal offices

ir.

of various Federal agencies are also located here.

Ail this has called for increased public services, which are being supplied as rapidly as circumstances and the demands may warrant. The need for elec

trical and water facilities has grown greatly in recent years. Transportation lines have been increased and lengthened. New hotels have been built, and tourist expenditures now yield Puerto Rico more than $20,000,000 annually. Banking services have kept pace with the expansion.

San Juan —the Capital of Puerto Rico — has shared in large part the gen eral postwar economic upswing of the United States, with which it is so inti mately linked politically and economically.

Interrelatiom of Gooernment, Economics and Finance Puerto Rico came under United States sovereignty by the Treaty of Paris on December 10, 1898. The Congress of the United States provided for a civil rule of the island in 1900. The original act was superseded to a large extent in 1917 by the Organic Act of Puerto Rico, which granted United States citizenship to Puerto Ricans. The judicial system of Puerto Rico is similar to and linked with the United States courts, with ultimate appeal available to the Supreme Court of the United States. The currency and postal systems are the same as on the mainland.

In 1950 Congress authorized the people of Puerto Rico to draft their own

Constitution within certain limits. This was approved overwhelmingly in an election on March 3. 1952. It was made effective on July 25, 1952, by procla mation of the Governor of Puerto Rico.

Until 1949, when the latest refinements in relations were set in motion, the

Governor of Puerto Rico had been appointed by the President of the United States. Selection of a Governor by popular vote superseded this arrangement


and on January 2, 1949, the first inauguration of an elective Governor took

place for a four-year term. The Legislature also is elected every four years and is bicameral. The Commonwealth Government has its own tax system, with revenues derived from income, excise and license imposts and various other sources.

At the request of the people of Puerto Rico, the 81st Congress enacted

Public Law 600, approved July 3, 1950. This Law became effective upon its acceptance by the voters of Puerto Rico. It provides that those sections of the Organic Act which define the political, economic and fiscal relationships between Puerto Rico and the United States shall remain in full force and shall be hereafter known as the Puerto Rican Federal Relations Act. It also author

ized the people of Puerto Rico to draft and approve their own constitution. The Constitution was drafted by a freely elected constitutional convention

and was overwhelmingly approved by the voters in a special referendum on March 3, 1952. Congress approved a joint resolution adopting the Constitution which received the President's signature on July 3, 1952 and became effective upon proclamation of the Governor of Puerto Rico on July 25, 1952.

The new Constitution does not in any way alter those provisions of the Organic Act which deal with the issuance of governmental obligations, includ ing provisions imposing limitations on the amount of public indebtedness that may be incurred by Puerto Rico and by its municipalities and other political subdivisions, which continue in full effect as part of the Puerto Rican Federal

Relations Act. The security and integrity of these obligations and their exemp tion from federal, state and local taxes are unchanged.

The Island is divided into 74 municipalities and the Capital of Puerto Rico, the lesal desianation for the Citv of San Juan. There are three basic differences

Puerto Rico has one of the finest airports of the western world, the $15,000,000 Ishi Verde, just outside the city limits, and only 15 minutes from downtown San Juan. Its runway has a lent'th of 7,800 feet. The new airport, which uy/.v inaugurated in May, 1955, is equipped to handle passenger traffic far beyond the 600,000 re corded in 1954. San Juan is the original destination of most business visitors and tourists.


between municipal government in Puerto Rico and in the continental United States:

1. There are no overlapping local units of government. Municipalities may be rural or urban, or a combination of both. No other units of Government

exist excepting the Commonwealth Government. Consequently, there is no overlapping in taxation, expenditures, or authority. 2. The Commonwealth Government to a very substantial extent supervises municipal fiscal affairs and collects most of the taxes levied by the municipali

ties. Revenues and expenditures are under strict control. 3. The Commonwealth Government assumes responsibilities for many func tions usually performed by local governments on the mainland. These include police and fire protection, public schools, and public welfare. The main responsibilities of municipalities are local street construction and maintenance, garbage and waste disposal and municipal improvements. The Puerto Rico Water Resources Authority provides electric service, the Aqueduct and Sewer Authority provides water and sewage facilities, and the Port's Authority is responsible for seaport, airport and bus transportation in San Juan.

The Economic Pattern — Island and City The Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, on the northeastern edge of the Caribbean

Sea, is about 100 miles long and 35 miles wide, with an area of 3,435 square

miles. The interior is mountainous with fertile valleys. A coastal plain of varying width surrounds the mass. The climate is comfortable, the mean winter

Forecasts of electric power requirements for the next few years have resulted in continuous expansion of the San Juan Steam Plant, the largest single power station in Puerto Rico. The capacity of the station will he increased to 132,000 kw. by the end of 1955 and, with the completion of a sixth unit in 1957, total capacity will be raised to 176.000 kw. Oil storage, warehouse and shipping facilities are available

on the .site of the plant. The nearby Caribbean Refinery supplies fuel oil for the plant's operation.

San Juan workers have demonstrated an aptitude for a

wide variety of industrial activities. In connection with the establishment of new factories, the Economic Development Administration provides personnel training among other services. This thorough training program has increased the number of skilled industrial workers among the citizens of San Juan.

it

temperature being 73.4 degrees and the mean summer temperature 78.9 degrees. The Capita! of Puerto Rico is on the northeast coast.

Sugar cane is the principal agricultural product. Coffee, tobacco, and pine

apples are produced in sizable amounts, and a stimulated program of crop diversification is increasing the output of fruits, fresh vegetables and cattle. But much of the food and other requirements of the population — 2,210,703 in the 1950 census — is imported. The commerce moves in good part through San Juan Harbor, which is a port of call for some thirty steamship lines han dling traffic between Puerto Rico and the mainland. South America and Europe.

Commercial aviation is growing rapidly and centers around the Capital of Puerto Rico. The adjacent International Airport, newly opened to traffic, accommodates the largest planes now in service. Air traffic in 1954 totaled over 600,000 persons. Because of its location and modern facilities, the new

airport is expected to become a focal point for traffic between North America and the Eastern portion of South America, and between Europe and much of Latin America.

Industrial growth has been stimulated markedly by the long-range develop ment program of the Commonwealth Government, and the Capital of Puerto Rico has shared in the advance. Special tax advantages and the availability of an abundant labor force are elements of this program. At the end of 1954 there were 114 industrial establishments in the Capital, manufacturing 95 different products,

Attraction for tourists is a major economic factor. Luxury hotels have been built and others are in the planning stages to provide accommodations for the rising tourist trade. Tourist expenditures in 1954 were estimated at $22,000,000. Cooling trade winds make the City a year-round attraction for visitors. The City limits were expanded in 1951, when the adjacent municipality of Rio Piedras was annexed with the approval of the electorate. As against the previous narrow limits of 7 square miles, this enlarged the Capital of Puerto 5


Rico to about AlV^ square miles. The City contains only about 17 per cent of the Island's population, but as the dominant commercial, industrial and financial center it has a concentration of wealth equal to about 43 per cent of the Island's property tax valuation.

Financial Administration of the Capital of Puerto Rico Because many of the major functions usually associated with municipal admin istration on the mainland are handled by the Commonwealth itself, the actual financial accounting of the Capital of Puerto Rico is relatively modest. For example, debt service by law ranks as a first charge among the uses to which the Commonwealth Treasurer must direct all municipal revenues. The Capital of Puerto Rico — otherwise San Juan — was created by special Commonwealth legislation. The City was granted the right to levy a basic real and personal property tax for general purposes up to a maximum of 1 per cent of valuation. Under the new municipal borrowing law. Act No. 7 of October 28, 1954, an unlimited ad valorem tax for bond purposes must be levied for payment of all bonds issued. All property tax collections, and all debt service funds are administered directly by the Secretary of the Treasury of Puerto Rico, that is, by the Com monwealth Government. The City relies for its revenues mainly on the prop erty tax. It derives some revenues from municipal licenses and fees on com mercial and industrial establishments. Also, varying percentages of the cigarette tax and automobile license fees levied by the Commonwealth Gov ernment are earmarked for the City. Two further important sources of revenue are to be noted. The Puerto Rico

Water Resources Authority pays to the City, in lieu of taxes, 6 per cent of its gross revenues collected in the municipality. No tax payments are made by the Puerto Rico Aqueduct and Sewer Authority, but in lieu of this, additional funds are paid to the City from General Fund appropriations of the Common wealth Government.

The tax collections by and on behalf of the City showed sharp variations in recent fiscal years, but only because a highly advisable realignment of assess ments was undertaken in 1949 and completed in 1952. No overall revision of assessments had been made since 1917, and it was evident that gross in equalities had crept into the system. The reassessment required about 3'/^

years, and about 750,000 property units were analyzed. Assessed valuations now are considered to be approximately 80 per cent of 1949 replacement cost. All of this involved delay in sending out tax bills and permissive deferment of payments of property taxes. As the deferred payments subsequently were made, total collections exceeded the levies, in the aggregate, over the past three years. As the assessments were increased, the tax rates were reduced

from $33 per thousand dollars in 1950 to $21 in 1951 through 1953, but have since risen to $25.10 in the current fiscal year.

The Extensive Safeguards of Indebtedness Under the Federal Relations Act, the debt which the Commonwealth Gov

ernment may incur is limited to 10 per cent of assessed valuation of taxable


property. The recent property reassessment was responsible in part for the increase in valuation from $437 million in 1949 to $982 million in 1955.

However, the outstanding gross debt of the Commonwealth Government on June 30, 1955, was only $49,153,000, and the net debt was $39,115,764, or 3.98 per cent of valuation. The policy, consistently maintained, has been one of conservation of credit

resources and the financing of the vast program of public improvements to the largest extent possible from current revenues. Repayment rather than incurrence of debt has been the aim, which also has been fostered among the municipalities. All Commonwealth and municipal net overlapping indebted ness together fell from a peak of $49 million in 1930 to $24.8 million in 1948. and has since increased only to $56 million in 1955, or 5.7 per cent of assessed valuation.

The debt limit of San Juan, along with the three other largest municipalities. Ponce, Mayaguez and Arecibo, is set by law at 10 per cent of assessed valua tion; in all others it is 5 per cent. The bonded debt of the Capital of Puerto Rico is modest by any standards.

Gross debt, including the current $2,500,000 issue, is $1 1,753,000, and the net debt is $9,286,828, or 2.22 per cent of the assessed valuation. The City

has no overlapping debt other than that of the Commonwealth Government. As an insurance against emergencies, the Commonwealth Legislature pro

vided in 1932 for an "Insular Emergency Fund" of not more than $10,000.000, to be accumulated from unused revenues. This sum has been accumulated

and is intact. The statute provides that it can be used if needed to protect the

This view of o portion of the old City of San Juan includes, left, the financial district which adjoins the city's harbor. Puerto Rico's hank resources increased 270 per cent duriuft die period 1940-54; deposits and loans showed increases of 261 per cent and 460 per cent, respectively. Shipping and harbor facilities are constantly being improved. Shipments to and from the mainland, mostly by way of San Juan, advanced in value from $191.400,000 in 1940 to SS4S.000,000 in 1955.

public credit of the Government and its municipalities through advancement of funds to meet debt service requirements.

Act No. 7 of the Legislature of Puerto Rico, approved October 28, 1954, relating to the borrowing of money by municipalities, including the Capital of Puerto Rico, authorizes the issuance and sale of bonds and notes and pro vides for their payment. It pledges "the full faith, credit and unlimited taxing power of the municipality" for "the punctual payment of the principal of and interest on all bonds and bond anticipation notes issued under this Act." The Government Development Bank for Puerto Rico, the Secretary of Justice, the Secretary of the Treasury, and other Department heads report to the Governor on the propriety of the incurrence of all municipal debt, and

no debt may be contracted by a municipality until the ordinance authorizing it has been approved by the Governor of Puerto Rico. Upon such approval the municipalities are authorized to sell their obligations directly to the Gov ernment Development Bank or to use the Bank as fiscal agent for their pub lic sale.

The Commonwealth Secretary of the Treasury collects directly all municipal and other taxes upon real and personal property and retains as a first charge from these collections the amounts appropriated for the payment of principal and Interest on outstanding obligations. No flaw of any kind mars the debt record of the Commonwealth Govern

ment or of the municipalities, authorities, and other political agencies of Puerto Rico. None has ever defaulted or been delinquent in the payment of principal or interest due on any obligations, either direct or indirect. There has never been any forced or "managed" refunding of maturing bonds to avoid default.
