SummaryResumen

The *Waterbury Democrat* reported that Italian Consul Amadeo Barletta was released on $50,000 bail by a Dominican court following his detention for an alleged plot against President Rafael Trujillo. The arrest had prompted Italy to threaten dispatching a warship to Dominican waters and to register strong representations with Secretary of State Cordell Hull. The U.S. government intervened because Barletta represented major American commercial interests, including General Motors and the Penn Tobacco Company.
