Description | Notes the amount of bananas produced in Jamaica -- that there is a lack of labour there due to low wages compared to Cuba -- that commandeering the banana crop for the UK would 'ruin the island by breaking its American connexion' -- that other crops not produced sufficiently, but that rice production could be profitable if labour were available. Notes that the cocoa crop might be commandeered -- suggests that tonnage be saved by cutting rum imports from Cuba. |
