TrujiIIo Had OutIived
His Brand Of Tyranny
BY JAMES MARROW
Associated Press Staff Writer

This country's problem with
the Dominican Republic is
Just beginning. The assassina-
ton of Dictator Rafael Leon
idaS Trujillo solved nothing.
The 69-yesr-old Gen. Tru-
jillo, after 81 years of tyranny,
had outlived his particular
time.
The middle class had risen
against him. Exiles had in
vaded him. The Catholic
church had denounced him
And all Latin American nations
had broken relations with him.
He survived as long as he did
on sheer muscle at a time when
social revolutions were sweep
ing not only Latin America but
the world. What outdated him
was this:
While all around him the
masses of Latin America were
demanding greater gratifica-
ton of their desire for a better
life, and a better part in it, he
kept his so-called republic fro
zen in the old ways.
Castro Is Modern
Fidel Castro in Cuba is no
less q dictator, with the same
contempt for democratic proc
esses. But, beside Gen. Tru-
jillo, he looks extremely mod
ern with his promises of a
richer life and a sense of be-
longing for the Cuban masses
The United States misunder-
stood this and learned to its
dismay, through the disaster OF
the April invasion, that many
Cubans, promised better living
support Mr.. Castro without ap-
parent concern whether he's
left or right.
It's an old lesson being re-
learned painfully around the
world: Democracy. to people
who never really had it means
nothing. What they want is to
live longer and better.
Gen. Trujillo had some glim-
mering of the true nature of
this wave of discomfort which
is sweeping over the dispos-
sessed of Latin America. Like
Mr.. Castro, he pacified the
peasants by parceling out land
to them. They we're docile.
Yet, the farmers scratched
out a bare existence. The slum
dwellers we're ragged.
Became Wealthy
He parceled out little else. He
lived in the past. In the end his
berserk tyranny-mass arrests,
prosecutions. executions, repres-
sions-was too excessive and

the Latin Americans needed a
strong rule. Before his long
dictatorship, the Dominican Re-
public had 90 governments be-
tween 1900 and 1900, still
seethed in the goth century,
and was occupied by United
States Marines from 1916 to
1924.
An able administrator, Gen.
Trujillo wiped out the public
debt and kept his government
on a debt-free basis until fall
ing crop markets and heavy
arms purchases IN recent years
began to pinch the government
finances.
Trained No Successor
The masses would turn out
at his call in huge numbers to
demonstrate support for his
dictatorship. But in recent
years the country's growing in
tellectual and middle class be-
gan to work for his overthrow
despite a highly efficient intel
ligence system and extreme and
efficient police repression.
Throughout his career, the
dictator did nothing about
training a successor or desig-
mating an heir. He did show a
personal partiality for 32-year-
old Rafael, jr., made him head
of the air force and heatedly
defended him against criticism

But some observers anticipated
an attempt to install a military
regime.
One of Trujillo's closest and
most trusted associates was
Col. John Abbes Garcia, chief
of the military intelligence serv-
ice.
Some Dominican exiles pre-
dicted Gen. TruJillos' death
would touch off a revolt. Juan
Romero Ulloa, secretary-general
of the Dominican revolutionary
group in Mexico, said a general
uprising had been planned for
lat' May, June or early July.

Khrushchev might we not, at least,
draw up a minimum program? AS
a starting point should we insist
that freedom of travel and COM
munication be restored inside Ber-
lin? We might even suggest that
not only West Berlin, but all Sow
iet-held territory west of Berlin,
be Incorporated into the Federal
Republic Then there is no problem
of access.
And, of course, as a long-range
objective we might start thinking
in terms of restoring free elections
in a united Germany, which could
become a bastion of freedom in
middle Europe.
Except for the latter, these are
limited detectives. But if we can
not achieve these goals there is
little to do except insist on the
status quo before the barbed wire
barricades and the cement curtain
went up between West and East
Berlin.
Could this mean war? Yes, it
could. De Gaulle faces up to this
reality, but he is equally realistic
in asserting that if war comes it
will be because the Soviets have
provoked it deliberately" If the
Russian leaders really want war,
there is no way to appease them
except surrender.
THE NUCLEAR TESTS-When
the Soviet Union brazenly proceed
ed to resume nuclear testing, Sec
rotary of State Rusk said we want
ed to allow time for the full effect
of this assault on future genera
tons of Asians, Europeans and
Americans to soak in.
Our spokesman were just be-
ginning to toss back at Khru-
shchev his plOus remarks about
the moral responsibility of the
first nation to resume testing.
But obviously from the reaction
at the Belgrade conference the
full effects of Soviet immortality
had not yet Soaked in.
What did we do? First the Pres
ident assured the nation we were
in good shape and there was no
, cause for military alarm. Then
within a week we expressed hope"
that the Soviets would quit mis-
behaving and gave them a dead
line. Finally we announced our in
tention to begin underground test
ing, with hints that we shall be
obliged to resume above-ground
tests in the near future.
DE GaulIe did it differently.
He made no VirtuOus remarks
about moral responsibility. He
made no promise about testing.
He saw no "hope" that Khru-
shchev would abandon what OBJ
viOusly had been a long planned
campaign of terror.
De Gaulle, we have been told, is
a difficult and stubborn man.
These are characteristics for which
we might one day all have cause to
be thankful.

WHAT ARE WE NEGOTIAT-
ING? There has been a lot of
mumbo-jumbo among the diplo-
mats about sitting down to negoi-
ate the problem" of Berlin. The
self-styled "neutrahsts" are urging
that we proceed at once to the con-
ference table.
1t sounds very reasonable until
you get down to details. What is
the problem" of Berlin? Is it real
or, as De Gaulle suggests, a
smokescreen camouflaging turmoil
behind the Iron Curtain?
Let's assume that, for the NOM
ent, there really is a Berlin prob
lem. 1t would seem a good idea to
define it. Is the problem" the
presence of RIAS, the free Radio
in the American Sector? Is it the
behavior of German 'militarists
and revenge-seekers", as the Sow
lets claim? Or is it that millions
in the Eastern Zone have increas-
ingly discovered how unattractive
the Soviet version of Utopia can
be and consequently want their

In the matter of world tensions
de Gaulle, of course, is not a new
conner.
During World War II some
Frenchmen adopted safety-first as
their national credo and the Vich-
Ytes saw Hitlerism as the wave
of the future. But it was de Gaulle
who demonstrated the capacity for
courage and competence in dealing
with DULLES and terrorists.
am not suggesting that this
automatically endows him with
perfection or that his wisdom is
infallible. But his behavior has
been in marked contrast to the
rudderless American approach ev-
ident since President Kennedy went
to Vienna to meet Khrushchev.
De Gaulle keeps his eye on the
ball. He makes no lofty preten-
sions. He does not engage in pol
itical fantasy. Two examples illus
trate the difference between the
de Gaulle approach and the Anglo
American: (D the matter of Ber-
