SummaryResumen

The *Washington Daily News* reported that the Dominican Republic declared a two-year debt moratorium on approximately $8,000,000 in bonds to save $100,000 per month. The action suspended payments from customs revenues, which was described as a technical violation of the 1924 financial convention with the United States.
