SummaryResumen

The Evening Star reported that about twenty political refugees, mostly Dominicans, staged a demonstration near the Pan American Conference in Washington demanding action against the Trujillo regime. Police instructed the demonstrators to keep at least 500 feet away from the Pan American Union building, where French President Vincent Auriol was speaking. The group had traveled from New York and hand-drew substitute placards after the car carrying their original signs broke down en route.

La policía ordenó a los manifestantes mantenerse al menos a 500 pies del edificio de la Unión Panamericana, donde pronunciaba un discurso el presidente francés Vincent Auriol. El grupo había viajado desde Nueva York y dibujó pancartas de reemplazo a mano luego de que el automóvil que transportaba sus carteles originales se averiara en el camino.

Against Trujillo

Near Conference

About 20 political refugees,

nearly all from the Dominican

Republic, today began dis

playing placards urging moves

against the Trujillo regime

about one block away from the

Pan American Conference.

Extra police details, called

out in case of a serious dis

turbance, told the group it

must not parade closer than

500 feet from the premises of

the Pan American Union,

where President Auriol of

France was addressing the

conference.

Members of the group,

which motored down from

New York last night, said a

car carrying elaborate plac

ards broke down 100 miles

north of Washington. To re

place them, the group hastily

drew up new posters as they

gathered near the corner of

Seventeenth and E streets

N.W.

Conference

and Latin America, the French

.leader said that “exchanges be

tween your magnificent universi

ties and ours ought to be in

creased.”

Earlier, a plenary session of the

ministers met to consider resolu

tions proposed and those already

adopted by the working groups

discussing political-military, in

ternal security and economic

px-oblems.

The most significant action of

the conference to date was taken

yesterday with approval of the

“Declaration of Washington.”

This pledges a mutual defense of

the Americas against communism.
