SummaryResumen

The *Daily Worker* reported that Dominican President Vásquez offered to repeal electoral amendments extending his term from four to six years as rebel forces over 1,000 strong advanced from the interior. The article stated that public rebellion was fueled by fears that Vásquez would maintain power with U.S. support, alongside severe poverty caused by falling sugar and tobacco prices. It also reported that Vásquez remained in frequent consultation with the American minister regarding marine backing.

El *Daily Worker* informó que el presidente dominicano Vásquez ofreció derogar las enmiendas electorales que prolongaban su mandato de cuatro a seis años mientras fuerzas rebeldes de más de 1 000 hombres avanzaban desde el interior. El artículo indicó que el descontento popular estuvo avivado por el temor de que Vásquez se perpetuara en el poder con apoyo de Estados Unidos, unido a la extrema miseria provocada por la caída de los precios del azúcar y del tabaco. Reportó además que Vásquez celebraba continuas consultas con el ministro estadounidense en relación con un posible respaldo de la infantería de marina.
