SummaryResumen
The *Washington Times* reported that U.S. Minister Norweb flew from Havana to Ciudad Trujillo to confer with President Trujillo amid rising diplomatic apprehension over reports of massacres of Haitians along the border. While Dominican troops were reportedly massing on the frontier, Dominican Minister Andrés Pastoriza denied the mobilization. Washington dispatches indicated that tensions arose because Haitians crossing the border farmed contested land and accepted lower wages, displacing Dominican workers.
El *Washington Times* informó que el ministro estadounidense Norweb voló desde La Habana a Ciudad Trujillo para entrevistarse con el presidente Trujillo en medio de una creciente inquietud diplomática por los informes sobre masacres de haitianos en la frontera. Aunque trascendió que tropas dominicanas se concentraban en la frontera, el ministro dominicano Andrés Pastoriza negó tal movilización. Despachos procedentes de Washington indicaron que las tensiones se suscitaron porque los haitianos que cruzaban la línea limítrofe cultivaban tierras disputadas y aceptaban jornales más bajos, desplazando a la mano de obra dominicana.

Norweb was hastily dispatched
from Havana, where he was at
tending an international radio
conference, to Ciudad Trujillo,
capital of Dominica. He arrived
there by airplane yesterday.
TO SEE TRUJILLO
While the State Department
said no report has yet been re
ceived from the minister, it was
expected he would confer with
General Trujillo, the President,
immediately.
Considerable apprehension was
felt over the new threat presented
to the peace of the Western Hem
isphere. Dominican troops were
reported massing on the border,
but this was denied by Dominican
Minister Andres Pastoriza here.
LOW WAGES A FACTOR
The fear was also held that
Haiti might send troops to exact
reprisals, or the wild Haitian na
tives might rise up and take the
situation into their own hands.
The Haitians were massacred,
according to reports reaching
Washington, because they had
crossed the ill-defined border sep
arating the two tiny republics
and had taken over lands to farm.
The Dominicans also were
angered because the Haitians
caused them to lose tehir jobs by
working for cheaper wages.
