Army Rule In Haiti
From: The New York Times

1t is not at all customary for an American news
paper to applaud military coup detat but the situation
that has arisen in Haiti leaves choice. Brig Gen.
Leon Cantave and other army officers have taken
troll of this chaotic little country.
Few developments in recent Latin American history
have been battling this descent into chaos which
began after President Paul Magiors driven
from power in December. Two succeeding provisional
President ousted in short order The ten candidates
for the Presidential elections scheduled for June 16
formed Executive Council but split in April The
left dominated by two figures-Louis
Deoie who favored by upperclass landowners and
business and professional men, and Daniel Fgnole who
had strong following the ranks of the workers.
However, it became clear in recent weeks that M.
Deoie, the really dominant figure, had little if any in
tention of permitting fair and honest elections June
To- There many currents and in Haiti
muato against black the provinces against the capital
of Port-au-Prnce and employers against the workers
and, by means least clash of personalities One
factor, however has from all appearances been
slant: the people demanding fair elections and
they had good to fear they not going to
have them.
This to the credit of the Haitian people and it was
also to Hatis credit that they had an army leader
General Cantave who honestly and earnestly wanted
to keep above the political strife This Messrs Dejoe
and Fignole did not let him do They tried to oust
him on Monday and put in their own In the cir
cumStances General Cantaye right to assume power
with solid army backing He has promised to call
meeting Of delegates from all provinces to choose
provisional President and he says the army viii guar
antee fair and free elections June 6 Such being the
case, it must be presumed that he will quickly lift the
press censorship he imposed yesterday
The United States is fortunate in having an able
career diplomat in Port-au-Prnce who knows Haiti
well and has just taken up his dutes-Gerald A. Drew.
M. Deoie has tried to give the impression that the
United States favors him, but in reality favor no
Americans simply hoping that order will be re-
stored and that the Haitian people will have chance on
June Is to choose President in fair democratic
election.

If this is true no if it is right
Christ said for us to love We one

II we fail to obey we are lost or not
God has only one family on the

The spot of salvation is his love
Christ created a new heart We are

That is where Gods churches will

We must love we one another to
save our soul.

The Lord had only one son to die
For the sins of this world in wo-

So he created a new heart in them
That his Fathers love would not
be slim.
The love of God is the salvation

1t will give us peace in our homes
With faithful honest loving wife.

So it is a life time Journey and
