BORNO MAY RETIRE

AS PRES. OF HAITI

Questions growing out of

American occupation of Haiti

are in a fair way to be settled

in a manner that will refute ac

cusations made against the

American policy in that country,

according to a statement issued

by Senator Tasker L. Oddie, Re

publican, of Nevada, on June 1.

Senator Oddie based his state

ment upon assurances contained

in a recent message addressed

by President Borno of Haiti to

the Haitian Council of State, a

translation of which from the

original French the Senator

made public with the explana

tion that he had received it from

official sources.

“'This is a most important

document,” Senator Oddie said.

“It promises elections in 1930

and forecasts American with

drawal from the Republic in

1936. It also refutes many false

accusations which have been

made against the American oc

cupation, in very clear lan

guage."

Senator Oddie interpreted the

message as a pledge by Presi

dent Borno that he would retire

in 1930 and would guarantee

fair elections to provide for the

succeeding government.
