Dartiguenave was elected president. The

Marines were in charge of maintaining

order in the country and of revising

the electoral procedure. In 1920 this

was again done, although this time the

Haitian constabulary, under Marine

officers, were the ones to supervise and

maintain order during the period of

election.

In 1913 the elections for the national

assembly of Santo Domingo were super

vised by a North American commission.

In 1914 the presidential elections were

supervised by civil and military repre

sentatives. In November, 1916, the

United States intervened in the affairs

of the Dominican Republic to re-estab

lish order. The republic was then

occupied by military forces and no elec

tions were held until 1924. No direct

supervision was made of the 1924 elec

tions, although there still remained a

few of Uncle Sam's forces and they

were observed very closely by a United

States representative.

In 1920 the Nicaraguan Government

requested from the United States the

assistance of an expert in the revision

of its electoral laws. Harold W. Dodds

was designated to go to Nicaragua,

where he compiled a new electoral law,

which was approved by the Congress

of Nicaragua in 1923. Four United

States Marines, dressed in civilian

clothes, aided Mr. Dodds in the regis

tration of the electoral voters. The

last electoral supervision of Nicaragua

has been conducted by Gen. McCoy

as a result of the armed intervention

which followed th civil war between

the Liberal and Conservative parties
