H0NDURAN GOVERNMENT
FEARFUL OF INVASION

WASHINGTON, Dec. THE govern
ment OF Honduras. apprehending an
armed invasion, has proclaimed martial
law throughout the republic. This In
formation reached the state department
today but no indication was given as to
the source from which the invasion was
expected.
IL is believed. however. that Manuel Bo-
nilla, former president OF Honduras. who
was deposed by President Davilla, through
the help of Zelaya, may be taking advan-
tage OF the situation in Nicaragua TO
seek revenge.
For some time It has been suspected
among the Central Americans that Da
villa was In sympathy with Zelaya in his
efforts to crush the revolution under Es-
trada and IL is thought that Bonilla
threatened invasion OF Honduras at this
time would serve the double purpose oil
preventing any aid being given 10 Ieiaya

overthrow of the Davilla government.
