Haitians to determine their territory in j'

establlshmg their customs jurisdiction, j g

Officials here made it plain that its objections

will be voiced in strong terms

should Haiti ignore the de facto boundary

line between the two countries determined

by a survey in 1907 and established

in a recent identic note to the dis-

putants. o

Long a Disturbing Issue.

The boundary dispute has been the j d

source of long bickering between Haiti j j*

and er sister republic. It reached an a

acute stage last month, when the Dentin-

ican revolutionists closed the Dominican I

customs houses. Then it was that the

United States, which has been acting as'jj

mediator in the dispute, established a; aj

provisional boundary line

It is proposed by the Haitians to estab- sj

lish three customs houses, all on the j,

northern frontier, and it is held that their

establishment will end the evasion of the

export coffee tax. from which Haiti derives

most of its revenue, by traders who

smuggle that commodity over the Domin- Ci

ican boundary. m

On the other hand, the Dominicans have

claimed that the demoralization of its w

customs service has been encouraged by Pi

Haitian sympathizers with the revolu- r>

tionists, who have sought thereby to take

advantage of an opportunity for freer t'1

traffic over the border. N
