Washington. D. c., Jan. 6.-Pres-
ident Dartiguenave of Haiti has
declined to order trial in the civil
courts of Cadus BELGRADE. whose
conviction by an American military
court on charges Of murder and can
nibalism recently was set aside by

Belgrade was found guilty largely
on the evidence of Haitians of the
killing of q young girl as human
sacrifice at ''voodoo' performances
President. Dartiguenave has an
proved the trial by American

today that he now is unwilling to

that he could not be convicted.

OUR CITY GOVERNMENT.

The recent announcement Of May
or Wozencraft Of his refusal to run
again for the office of chief exc
cutive Of our city must have been
received with much regret by all
classes OF Dallas citizensF az
There can be no doubt but that
he has in truth been the Mayor OF
the whole city and has directed its
affairs with a view to Increased
benefit OF all of its citizens. Ills re-
cord has been commendable and
satisfactory to as high degree as
was humanity possible.
In making suchfa statement II Is
not to be reasoned that during the
years Of his administration just past,
there has not been feeling OF dis
satisfaction at the course pursued by
him on some questions, hut 1t may
be said beyond any DANGER Of sue
cessful contradiction that whatever
his course may have been, even his
bittcrest enemy cannot charge MIN
with having been unfaithful to the
best interests Of his city.
Under his administrator Dallas
has prospered and developed in
many ways.
His progressive attitude has msde
it easy for progressive projects to
be brought to successful accomplish
ment.
Our group cannot but remember
him especially for the generosity OF
HIS attitude toward park and well
fare projects as they related to rs
Though not the originator Of " IN
AZ adopted toward them such an ~
tide as tc make sheir more eff
cient operation almost a necessity
Our regret at his refusal to rur
again Is, genuine and II is our hope
that even III his retirement he may

The foregoing is. the .gist OF ths
message that the Secretary OF Wan
