A Haitian deputy, who professes to be
well informed on all political matters, said
yesterday that the government was certain
to favor the elimination of Article 6 from
the Constitution at the session of the Cham

The correspondent of the Associated Press
derived from Brutus St. Victor, the secre
tary of state for foreign relations, to-day,
an entirely different view of the parliamen
tary programme. Mr. St. Victor denied
Categorically that the government contem

tion is rural, and that it is strongly wedded
to national traditions.”
Mr. St. Victor would not speak definitely
as to the means which the government in
tends to take to check the increase of the
premium on paper money; but*he admitted
