SummaryResumen
The *Waterbury Democrat* reported that attorney Donald Richberg was representing President Trujillo in the diplomatic conflict over the reported massacre of roughly 8,000 Haitians. The report alleged that Trujillo's concession to conciliation was merely an evasive maneuver engineered by counsel regarding whether he had previously refused to negotiate. These diplomatic delays, including an envoy's refusal to travel to Washington, reportedly caused frustration within the U.S. State Department and the Pan-American Union.
El *Waterbury Democrat* informó que el abogado Donald Richberg representaba al presidente Trujillo en el conflicto diplomático suscitado por la masacre de unos 8.000 haitianos. La crónica señalaba que la avenencia de Trujillo al proceso de conciliación fue una simple maniobra dilatoria urdida por sus asesores jurídicos en torno a su previa negativa a negociar. Estas demoras diplomáticas, incluida la negativa de un enviado a trasladarse a Washington, provocaron según los informes gran frustración en el seno del Departamento de Estado de EE. UU. y de la Unión Panamericana.

Haitian Massacre
At present Richberg Is repre
senting the Dominican president
in his dispute with Haiti, resulting
from the massacre of about 8.000
Haitians in the most horrible
manner. At a given signal, re
putedly given by Trujillo himself,
these Haitians were driven into
the sea, chopped up with mach
etes, some drenched with gasoline
and ignited, still living.
For some time Trujillo refused
to conciliate the dispute. After
much pressure by the United
States, he finally issued a spec
tacular announcement that he
would do so. But when the of
ficial acceptance arrived it
showed that he merely accepted
conciliation of whether or not
he previously had refused to
conciliate.
Which meant that nothing
minus nothing left nothing. Some
people suspected Don Richberg’s
astute legal mind of trumping up
this run-around.
At any rate Trujillo appointed
Richberg and the Dominican min
ister to Cuba as his representatives
to conciliate the question of
whether he had previously re
fused to conciliate. But the envoy
in Cuba refuses to come to Wash
ington because of a cold, although
seen nightly in Havana’s night
clubs.
All this is getting on the
nerves of the State Department
and the entire Pan-American
Union. Latest inner circle sug
gestion is to make Don Rich
berg settle the whole blithering
mess as a test of his judicial
qualities for the Supreme Court.
