The necessity for a drastic step has
been considered since the overthrow
several months ago of President
Jiminez by Gen Arias, a strongly anti-
American revolutionist. With Arias In
control, the Dominican Assembly
elected Frederico Enriquez president,
but the United States refused to rec
ognize the new government and with
held the balance of customs revenues
left after the regular payments of in
terest on the foreign debt. Conse
quently the native officials and em
ployes will draw their first pay since
the downfall of Jiminez when to-mor
row the American officers begin to
disburse some $600,000 of accumulat
ed export duties.
Secretary Daniels explained Thurs
day that the form of rule set by Capt
Knapp did not contemplate any In
fringement of the civil rights or
processes of the native government.
The marines will maintain order and
prevent revolutionary agitation, but
the municipal and civil laws will still
be administered by Dominican courts.
