C Douglas Debe voise, whose
firm has extensive sugar interests
in the Dominican Republic, urged
Congress to reject President Ei
senhower's request that the Car
ribean country's sugar quota be
reduced.
Bebevoise said he feared eco
nomic chaos would result if the
bonus were withdrawn, thus enab
ling the Communists to take ove*
from dictator Rafael Trujillo.
His testimony before the House
Agriculture Committee put him at
direct odds with Undersecretary of
State Douglas Dillon. He said
Wednesday that giving the extra
sugar to the “inhuman” Trujillo
would further Communism in La
tin America.
Debevoise said he feared eco-
S. consumers would be forced to
pay higher sugar prices if the quo
ta were reduced Congress raised
the Dominican quota last month
to make up for a cut in Cuban
imports.
The United States, meanwhile,
was moving toward a break in dip
lomatic relations with, the Trujil
lo regime as decreed by the foreign
ministers of the Organization of
American States (OAS) in Costa
Rica this week.
Several Latin American coun
tries already have complied and
the United States will follow suit
very soon. But officials said it
will not simply walk out of the
Caribbean country cold.
Important U. S. affairs will be
placed in the hands of another
government-apparently Britain.
This country also probably will
leave a handful of consular offi
cials in the Dominican Republic
to handle visas, worry about fu
gitives from U. S. justice and look
after American business interests.
