his rule was a small-scale invasion
of the country which was at
tempted several weeks ago.
Gen. Trujillo's well-trained mili
tary forces reportedly wiped out
most of the tiny rebel band on the
landing beach. But a handful of
rebels apparently made it through
to the hills, and may still be hid

Gen. Trujillo knows well that
Premier Castro led a similar band
to power in Cuba following his
near-disastrous "invasion" that

founded, there is an underlying
belief in the OAS that most
member nations would not take
