Military Junta Rules
Haiti After President
Is Forced 10 Resign
Rx the Assoeiaied Press

PORT Az. PR1NCE, Haltl, May
l1.-Military rulers seized the
government Of Haiti yesterday
after almost four years on the
sidelines. They came back to
power after President Dumarsais
Estime tried unsuccessfully to in
sure his own reelection.
Mr.. Estime resigned and was
succeeded by the same three-man
military junta who threw out
his predecessor in January, 1916.
The junta. which had ruled the
country until Estime's election in
August, 1946. announced the Pres
ident and his family had been
placed under its protection"
In Miami an informed source
said Estirne may go to Paris to
live. His predecessor. Ellie Les
cot, found refuge in Canada.)
Parliament Dissolved.
Immediately after taking Office
yesterday the junta dissolved
Parliament, promising at the
same time in a proclamation to
respect Haiti's existing interna-
tional agreements and to main
tain democratic practices.
The military leaders said the
lower parliamentary house. the
Chamber of Deputies elected last
January during government
decreed state of siege, did not
have the country's confidence.
The Chamber, which Mr.. Estime'S
opponents charged was hand
picked by the government, previ-
ously had approved a constitu-
tional amendment permitting the
Presidents reelection when his
current term expired in 1882,
The dissolution order also ap-
piled to the Senate. whose rejec-
ton April 13 of the reelection
amendment was followed by
mob attack in which the Senate
Chamber was wrecked and an
assault was made on the homes
Of two Senators opposed to the
amendment. Anti government
quarters charged the mob was
led by Minister Of Interior Castle
Demesmin, who they said was
pro- Communist.
Social Program Pushed.
Since taking Office in 1946 Mr..
Estimes government had Spon-
sored a program of widespread So
cial and financial legislation and
public works for this West Indian
island, whose 3 million people are
almost all illiterate Negroes or
mulattoes.
Minimum wages were almost
doubled. Hydroelectric and irriga-
ton projects were developed and
United Nations assistance was en-
listed for a series of projects to
improve social, economic and edu-
cational conditions.
The Estime regime also put
through a considerable tax pro-
gram, including the islands first
income tax.
The junta which returned to
power is made up of Brig. Gen.
Frank Levaud, leader of the 1916
coup; Maj. Antoine Levelt and
Mai. Paul Magloire.

REALITY OF
THANK SEWING

In these times Thanksgiving
for the bounty Of the Mereiful one
consists in the illumination Of the
heart and the feeling Of the soul.
This Is the reality of thanksgiving
But. although offering thanks
through speech or writings Is APP
provable, yet. in comparison with
that. il is unreal. for the founda
tion is spiritual feeling and mcr'
ciful sentiments. hope that YOU
may be favored there with. But the
lack of capacity and merit in the
Day of judgement doesn't prevent
one from bounty and generosity
for It is the day of grace and not
justice, and to give every one his
due is justice. Consequently, do
not look upon the capacity nay
rather look upon the definite grace
of the Bounty of Abba: whose
grace is comprehending and whose
bounty is perfect" From Bahai

TRANSPORTATION IN TRACKS

The next time you see a railroad
train, ask yourself this question;
What would the country do with
out the iron horse?"
We take the rails for granted,
as we do so many other invalua-
Bile things. Other forms of trans
portation have come into the lime
light. But the fact remains that
there is nothing today that can
challenge the supremacy of trans
portation on tracks
The railroads still carry the
great bulk of passengers and
freight including practically
all of the heavy freight which
keeps industry and agriculture GO
ing.
The railroads work day and
night, around the ciock--swiftfy
efficiently. surely in all kinds Of
weather and under the most ad-
verse conditions.
When an emergency comes. we
turn at once to the railroads to
handle huge and sudden hauling
job that is vital to the national
seeurity--and they must do that
IN addition TO their normal func-
tons. In the last war, the highest
military and civilian officials said
the railroads contribution TO vie
tory was unreasonable.
Their taxes are among the lar
gest and most dependable sources
OF revenue for government on all
levels. Many a county virtually
lives off the railroads.
Moreover, no one subsidies tho
railroads. No one builds them term
lnais and ADMINISTRATION buildings
And no one builds them great
highways TO use as right of WAYS
highways which, incidentally
are breaking down under the
weight of overloads faster than
we can repair them.
We would be in a sorry fix to-
day without the iron horse
