Sumner Welles was probably the greatest under secretary of state of all time. The present Wikipedia article doesn't indicate the extent of Welles' influence beyond Cuba.

This article seems highly biased in it's approach if only because focuses on only one aspect of Mr. Welles' lengthy career. This makes this article substandard.

Instead of biased the word incomplete might be used. If the unknown correspondent wishes to state that "Sumner Welles was probably the greatest under secretary of state of all time" perhaps she/he will be glad to fill in/

The present article (somebody else is adding to it) however has added a series of errors, most notable a critical date change 1934 should read 1933; and instead of Batista (who was still unknown outside the army) the article should instead list General Herrera, Colonels Castillo, Delgado etc See Hugh Thomas ISBN 0-306-80827-7 and Enrique Ros (El Jigüe, 10/9/2005)

[edit] Badly needs revision

The article is tendentious and much of it appears to have been written by a person with limited command of English. Should be reviewed and rewritten by a knowledgeable and objective person.
