SummaryResumen

The Evening Star published excerpts from President Taft's message to Congress, reporting that the Dominican customs receivership was operating satisfactorily under the 1907 convention. Taft noted that despite lower customs revenues caused by economic conditions and anticipated tariff revisions, debt service payments were maintained and burdensome private concessions were retired. The message also reviewed U.S. diplomatic interventions regarding corporate claims in Nicaragua and Chile.

The Evening Star publicó extractos del mensaje del presidente Taft al Congreso, informando que la receptoría de aduanas dominicana operaba satisfactoriamente en virtud de la convención de 1907. Taft destacó que, pese al descenso en los ingresos aduaneros provocado por la coyuntura económica y la expectativa de revisiones arancelarias, se mantuvieron los pagos del servicio de la deuda y se rescataron onerosas concesiones privadas. El mensaje examinó además las intervenciones diplomáticas estadounidenses relativas a reclamaciones corporativas en Nicaragua y Chile.
