SummaryResumen
The Evening Star reported on regional political polarization pitting Cuba, Guatemala, and Costa Rica against the authoritarian regimes of Rafael Trujillo in the Dominican Republic and Anastasio Somoza in Nicaragua. While the United States maintained a policy of non-intervention, diplomats debated proposals by Panama's Ricardo J. Alfaro urging the Organization of American States to deny recognition to regimes seizing power through coups. Observers emphasized that enduring democratic stability in the Caribbean would require addressing deep-seated socioeconomic grievances.

revolution, pay lip service to
republican principles, but rule
as long as their armies and
public opinion permits them to
stay in office.
Calling themselves “cham
pions of democracy,” Cuba,
Guatemala and Costa Rica are
reported to have aligned them
selves against the “dictator
ships” of Gen. Trujillo in the
Dominican Republic and Gen.
Somoza, Nicaragua’s Minister
of Defense.
The United States, despite j
obvious interest in the Carib
bean, has adopted a “hands
off” policy in recent years.
Within the State Department,
however, there has been some
support for a formula proposed
by former President Ricardo J.
Alfaro of Panama, who is his
nation’s U. N. representative. Dr.
Alfaro has urged that the Or
ganization of American States
withhold recognition from any
government which comes to
power as a result of a military
coup. Recognition would be
given only after a free and fair
election to determine public
preference.
The ambitions of political
and military leaders, the inter
vention of Central American
countries in the internal affairs
of their neighbors and some
Communist Influence are fac
tors in the constant turmoil.
But more pressing are the so
cial and economic factors that
have led to revolt.
The United States has taken
the lead in bettering conditions
in the Caribbean. Some prog
ress has been reported already.
But observers see little hope for
stability and for a real trial of
democratic principles until so
cial and economic measures
succeed. _
