SummaryResumen

The *Evening Star* recounted the diplomatic career of Undersecretary of State Sumner Welles, noting his mission under President Harding to arrange the withdrawal of U.S. Marines from the Dominican Republic. Welles also returned to Santo Domingo alongside Charles G. Dawes to examine Dominican national finances.
