SummaryResumen
An Associated Press correspondent writing from Santo Domingo on February 13 reports that peace, expected by everyone to be permanent, has at last been established through the intervention of the United States in a country that has had approximately fifty presidents in seventy years, not one chosen without revolution. Captain Knapp, head of the temporary military government, faces the work of establishing good government, a sound educational system, agriculture and transportation, with an education commission headed by Archbishop Adolfo Nouel already appointed and a great highway of more than 200 miles planned across the Cibao to Monte Cristi.
