Suspends Hostilities Against
Venezuela.
DISPUTE WILL BE SETTLED
Revocation of Obnoxious Order Issued
by Castro Results in Prompt Action
by The Netherlands Government.
New Administration at Caracas Ex-
presses Desire to Renew Diplomatic
Relations With United States.

The Hague, Dec. 24.-Foreign Min
lister Van Swinderen made a state
ment in the second chamber concern
ing affairs in the Caribbean sea, in
which he announced the suspension Of
Dutch hostilities against Venezuela
and the prospect of an early settle
ment of all the difficulties between
that country and The Netherlands.
The government is in receipt of an
official dispatch confirming the report
ed revocation by Venezuela of the
decree issued by General Castro last
summer prohibiting the transhipment
at Curacao of goods destined for Ven:
ezuela. Because of the revocation of
obnoxious DEGREES and in view of the
fact that the Venezuelan government
has granted the principal demand of
the Dutch governmental demand
that the fleet was sent to Venezuelan
waters to enforce-orders we're sent
to the Dutch warships on the Venezu-
elan coast to suspend their aggressive
operations and some of the ships will
be recalled.
The prompt appointment Of former
Foreign Minister Paul to negotiate
settlements of the disputes between
Venezuela and foreign governments
has made a good impression. It is
believed here that Senior Paul always
was friendly toward The Netherlands
and favored an adjustment Of the trou-
BILE with Holland.
