SummaryResumen
The *Evening Star* reported that ousted military leader General Pedro Rodríguez Echavarría was expected to be sent abroad rather than harshly punished, following the counter-coup in Santo Domingo. Former President Joaquín Balaguer remained under guard at his residence, asserting that he had previously resisted resigning precisely to avoid provoking a military seizure of power.

was a hero to Dominicans for
fronting the air force uprising
that thwarted an attempt by
Gen. Trujillo’s relatives to
bring back his kind of iron
fisted rule. Gen. Rodriguez
Echavarria may be sent abroad
as an ambassador.
Balaguer at Home
Mr. Balaguer was at his com
fortable home on the city’s
western outskirts. Three armed
guards stood outside, but Mr.
Balaguer told a reporter he did
not consider himself under
