CIUDAD TRUJILLO, Domin

ican Republic, Nov. 22 (AP).—

President Joaquin Balaguer

says the Dominican armed

forces have lined up solidly

behind him and that threats by

antidemocratic diehards to

topple his government have

been eliminated.

Mr. Balaguer, in a radio ad

dress last night, claimed the

government had emerged in

full control from the crisis

prompted by the return of two

Trujillo’s feudal dictatorship.

Mr. Balaguer’s address fol

in which most of this city’s

300,000 people appeared to
