PATROL STREETS IN

PORT AU PRINCE

PORT AU PRINCE, Haiti (UP)

—Armed troops and tanks today

patrolled the streets of Port au

Prince where the public resorted

to the second general strike in two

months to get rid of an unpopular

president.

No incidents were teported ans

tourists visiting Haiti were report

ed safe although inconvenienced

by closed shops and crippled trans

portation. Plane service out of the

country was baited.

The public’s strike forced the. re

signation of Joseph Nemours Pier

re Louis, who assumed the tempor

ary office in December. A similar

strike had ousted Dictator Paul E.

Magloire then.

However, acceptance of Pierre

Louis’ resignation was held up un

til Haiti’s political leaders can

agree on a provisional president

who can bring the paralyzing strike

to an end. There are seven candid

ates in the still unscheduled gen

eral election. Congress is meeting

tonight to elect another provision

•1 president.
