boxes and 10 vols.)
This series is comprised
of miscellaneous financial records of the main offices of the Francisco
Sugar Company, and of the firm's various divisions (such as Central Elia)
and subdivisions (such as the various colonias owned and/or controlled
by the company). Also included are the company's published annual
reports, 1920-1967.
Much of this material
is related to corporate taxation. Also included are auditor's reports,
rental and loan contracts, and the reorganization papers from the 1936
recuperation of the firm from court-appointed receivers. Documents
from the late 1950s and early 1960s reveal the company's financial condition
on the eve of the revolution and during the early years of revolutionary
government control. Documents from the early and mid 1960s provide
information regarding seized company assets and stockholders' and former
colonos' claims against the revolutionary government.
