Railway Map of Jamaica.

This map, produced in the 1920s by the Transportation Department of the United States Department of Commerce, shows the railroads and rail stations of Jamaica, at that time a crown colony within the British Empire. Also shown are the island's main roads and its three counties--Cornwall, Middlesex, and Surrey--and their borders. The scale of the map is in statute miles (1 mile = 1.61 kilometers). The Western Jamaica Connecting Railway was built in 1845. Running from Kingston to Angels, a distance of some 23 kilometers, it was the first railroad constructed anywhere outside Europe or North America. The Jamaican railroad system was expanded throughout the 1900s, mainly for the purpose of bringing sugar and other products to the ports of Kingston, Port Antonio, and Montego Bay. Expansion of the railway in the late-19th century opened up the interior of the country to farming and the establishment of banana and citrus plantations. The map is held in the Columbus Memorial Library of the Organization of American States (OAS). After approximately 300 years of British rule, Jamaica gained its independence in 1962. It joined the OAS in 1969.

u America and Great Britain Many people do not realize that hitherto all the active political relations between Great Britain and America have been hostile relations writes William Archer in the Westminster Gazette Twice the two Nations have been at war and there are not a few Americans who are fond of boasting that in both of these conflicts they whipped us Our normal level relations have no doubt been amicable enough but when ever the level has been broken it has been by incidents which left a certain legacy of illfeeling The general attitude of Britain during the great Civil War was anything but j sympathetic Once we were on the verge of a rupture over the case of Mason and Slidell The affair of the Alabama was exceedingly disagreeable the Venezuelan squabble led us not perhaps to the brink of hostilities but some way in that direc tion The incident of Manila Bay is perhaps the only international episode of any note that has definitely tended to draw the two Nations together Of course this does not mean that there has not been real friendship between them There has never been a moment when thousands of Englishmen and
