HOOVER'S HAITIAN
 COMMISSION SAILS
Departure for Island COinCident
 With Dominican Revolt

Washington, Feb. 26 (UP)-Dc- parturC of President Hooyer's Hai- ton commission yesterday from Key West coincided with reports of a rebellion in the Dominican republic which shares the island of Santo Domingo with Haiti.
 The United States has assume1 responsibilities under the existing Dominican-A American treaty which might be made the basis for inter- vcntion in the Dominican republic if disorder persists. Marines are available in Haiti and a force could be sent to the other part of the IS land
 Treaty relations between tic United States and the Dominican ra- public are financial. Article one au- thorizes the president of the United States to appoint q general receiver Of Dominican customs, and article two says:
 The government of the United States will give to the general re- Cciver and his assistants such pro- lection as it may find to be requisite for the performance Of their duties.
 Coincidence Noted
 IL is q coincidence that the cont mission appointed recently by Prcs:- dent Hoover to investigate condi- tjons in Haiti and recommend ? permanent policy sails just as revolt flares up in tho sister republic.
 The president ordered additional marines to Haiti after disorders la@- | ICCcmbcr, but subsequently recall cd them. Several natives were kill cd by the marines, The Haitian commission. headed by Cameron Forbes. former governor general Of the Philippines is sailing on the |. $. $. Koch astcr
 United States marines were sc't to the Dominican republic in 1916 tp quiet q serious uprising. They formed q military government which continued i'll office until 1924 when Hear Admiral samuel s. Robisoa, military governor turned the Go%- crmnmcnt over to the newly elected president, Horacio Nasqucz, who st;H is in office.
 Reports received by the state la. partmcnt from Minister Charles E. Curtis indicated rebellion against the NasqueG governments and sad Scnora Nasqucz had sought safety il the American legation. First reports to the department did not detln2 the origin or extent of the disorder. Dominican affairs have been tran nuil for 10 years.

DIVIDENDS DROP
DURING JULY

While dividend payments to
stockholders in July were greater
than those paid in the same
month last year, they were only
about half the amount paid in
June. The total for July was
$235, ,304, ,904, against $486, ,227 ;O92
in June and $500, 1896, $50 in July,
1929.
fhe gain in payments over
last year was in the main due
to an increased number Of shares
outstanding at this time and off
set the reduced disbursement Of
others. In many cases, the cut
in dividend payments was made
in order to conserve the cash
position of the company.
The bank, insurance, depart
ment store, food packing, mail
order. motor equipments railroad
equipment and tobacco groups
showed a gain in payments over
1aSf year. The chain store, cop
per- motor, public utility and
steel groups showed a decrease
in payments.
The number of dividends passed
rose from % last year to 81 and
the number Of reduced payments
rose from 4 to %.
Dividend declarations in July
