...might also be argued that the content material of present courses is too valuable to permit students to leave them.

Once again, the question period proved particularly vigorous, and lasted almost as long as the speech itself. Questioned about the advantage for the U.S. in Puerto Rican relationships, Munoz said that, of course, his country could not make an appreciable financial contribution to the U.S., but that it serves as a go-between for the Latins and the North Americans...
