Haiti Is Placed
Under Military
Law by Junta

PORT AU PRINCE, Haiti
Sept. ~ B.-Haiti's ruling
military junta declared martial
law throughout the nation to-
day and imposed q 10 pm. to 4
am. curfew to stall of post
election violence.
In a broadcast announcing
the change from a state Of
siege to full martial law, the
junta warned that all attempts
to create disorders or stir up
rebellion would be crushed

Haiti had been under the
less severe state Of siege since

In the army. A decree issued
in June outlawing strikes was
repeated today.
Strike Smashed
Today's action came only
hours after the three-man
junta. headed by Brig. Gen
Antonio Kebreau, smashed an
attempt to engineer a new gen.
eral strike.
There was an uneasy calm
today, with business as usual.
But no one would predict
how long the quiet might last,
Many Haitians felt bitter po-
litical passions would erupt into
violence before or after the
official announcement october

The general strike effort was
made yesterday by partisans Of
former Senator Louis Dejoie,
defeated in the presidential
race on the basis Of published
reports. Also joining in were
followers Of another losing can
didate. Clement Jumelle.
Swift Action Taken
The military junta that has
ruled Haiti since June IA
moved swiftly to end the gen.
eral strike.
Soldiers. police and crowds Of
civilians used crowbars. ham,
mers and acetylene torches to
open the doors Of shattered
business places. Owners who
refused to do business after
their stores and shops were
opened found their stocks being
sold anyway. Government fis-

The colossal nerve displayed by
some people. when they barge
in on a party to which they
have not been invited, is an
unpardonable breach of good
manners. Some steps have to
be taken to control these pests
tthere is no other word that
expresses them. Inclosing a
small card to be presented at
the door is a sure way of ac-
complishing this.
The following wording may
be engraved on the card:
Please present this card
at the Ritz Hotel Ball Room
Friday, the eighteenth of June.
@. What is the best pro-
cedure to follow when an en-
gagement is broken, after a
formal announcement has
been made?
A. If the wedding invitations
have not been mailed the less
said about it the better. The
family and close friends may
be acquainted with the turn
Of events, but it is not neces-

when you look at it from the
common sense standpoint?
After all. no one in the bridal
party needs to rehearse more
than the bride-to-be, for she
will be the cynosure of all eyes.
The sensible bride will dis
regard this old belief and take
part in the wedding rehearsal
so that she will assure her
self Of being completely at
ease when the great day ar
rives.
Q. A bachelor who makes
his home in a club asks II it
is correct to have his address
engraved on his calling cards.
A. Common sense in recent
years has dictated that it is
perfectly correct for a bachelor
to include his address, whether
it be a club or home address,
on his calling cards. Never,
however. should he place his
business address on a social
card.
