SummaryResumen

The *South Bend News-Times* criticized U.S. High Commissioner General John H. Russell's pervasive authority in Haiti, citing the barring of Senator William H. King by President Borno. The piece argued that Russell tolerated the suppression of free speech and judicial independence while Borno expanded his executive powers. It noted that the dissolution of the Haitian legislature by U.S. Marines had eliminated representative checks on the commissioner's governance.

El *South Bend News-Times* criticó la autoridad desmedida del alto comisionado estadounidense, general John H. Russell, en Haití, citando la prohibición de entrada al senador William H. King por parte del presidente Borno. El artículo sostuvo que Russell toleró la supresión de la libertad de expresión y de la independencia judicial mientras Borno acrecentaba sus prerrogativas ejecutivas. Destacó que la disolución del poder legislativo haitiano a manos de los infantes de marina estadounidenses había eliminado todo contrapeso representativo sobre la gestión del comisionado.

Inspired the ban, few failed to con

cede that a word from him to Borno

would promptly have averted this af

front to an American Senator.

With the benign thought tacit ap

proval of Russell, free press and free

speech in Haiti have been pretty gen

erally suppressed and Borno has

jammed through laws extending his

titular dictatorship and effecting his

domination of the Haitian courts,

which we did not take over under the

treaty. American marines long ago

dissolved the Haitian congress, so

Russell hasn’t a representative legis

lative body to contend with as has our

governor general in the Philippines.
