THE CHAWA TIM, Metsater j Septmivat 1 195 ag OAM mg SM LESSON FROM DOMINICA Revolution: Easy Come, Rough Go By ARCH MacKENZIE WASHINGTON (CP) -- The lesson of the Domini- can Republic seems plainly that revolutions are easier made 'than mended, in Latin America at least. The shooting began in Santo Domingo April 24 and took four lives as recently as Sunday--or an estimated 2,500 for the four months to date. In a step which has aroused only cautious optimism here in view of the obstacles met so far, the military junta of Brig.- Gen. Antonio Imbert Barreras resigned Monday under strong United States pressure exer- cised through the peace-making efforts of the Organization of American States. That pressure included drying up U.S. funds which had been paid through the junta to keep the impoverished and disorgan- ized country of 3,450,000 going. Barring still another hitch, this paves the way for a pro- visional government to be put together by the OAS. The so- called rebels, headed by Col. Francisco Caamano Deno and still holding 500 acres within Santo Domingo, accepted the terms after obtaining some con- cessions since bargaining on the specific plan began Aug. 9. Later, by the OAS formula, diplomat Hector Garcia-Godoy would head a provisional gov-| ernment until elections are) called in nine months. Then the peace-keeping force of 12,000 men--mostly Ameri- can troops who numbered 21,500 shortly after the fighting began --would be withdrawn. Diplomats say the junta's res- is pieces back together. ignation seems to be a break- through--the beginning of the) end of one phase. But it is diffi- eult to be optimistic over the! longer haul about the future of a country whose rebellion has drawn the attention of the OAS, the U.S., the United Nations, the papal nuncio, the Red Cross and others. The theory of peaceful solu- tion is threatened on all sides by realities shaped firmly by the dictatorship of more than 30 years exercised by Rafael Tru- jillo, now dead. This has been a different kind of revolution, it is held, com- pared with the straight power grabs of Latin American mili- tary opportunists and strong emotions have been raised in larger-thian-normal segments of the population, Strong antagonisms still ex- ist between the factions. The economy is in chaos and* the Communists who: do operate in the republic--that quantity still is in dispute--have not suffered from the American interven- tion. Anti-American sentiment has grown, Nothing in the republic's re- cent history indicates that an- other democratically - elected government would last much longer than the one headed by Juan Bosch from Decebmer, 1962, to the following Septem. ber. He was the first legally~ elected president in 38 years and he was ousted by the mili- tary. President Johnson, accused iby some critics of acting too hastily in the Dominican inter- vention, appears to have coun- jtered in subsequent months by iproceeding as patiently and \cautiously as possible to put But if that is done, it will need tremendous U.S. financial glue to make them stick, it is conceded on all sides.

Court was told Constable Don- ald Dalpee was struck on the head with a belt buckle during a disturbance at a coin-oper- ated model car raceway in Am- herstburg Aug. 6. The constable testified that when he arrived at the race- way, the owner--Alfred Pare-- had a bleeding nose. Mr. Pare told him he had been in a fight with Larry Hurst, 18, also a Ne- gro from Amherstburg. Constable Dalpee said he was about to speak to Hurst when a scuffle started and he was struck on the head by a belt wielded by Harris. Mr. Pare said a number of white and colored youths. were at the raceway at the time of the incident.

Gregory of Stratford, chairman} of the investments committee of the Canadian Bar Associa- tion and a former director of Atlantic Acceptance Corp. Ltd said Tuesday he recommended the investment of CBA funds in) Atlantic. Mr. Gregory said in a report to the CBA's annual meeting that his committee on March 2 approved investment of $40,000 in seeured notes of Atlantic) Acceptance for six months and purchase of 200 shares of At-| lantic's six-per-cent convertible! preferred shares at a cost of $5,370. Atlantic was placed in receiv- ership after defaulting June 14 on several millions in short- term notes. Mr. Gregory, a lawyer, resigned July 27 as president of British Mortgage and Trust Co., Stratford, and about six weeks earlier as a director of Atlantic. British Mortgage said later it had lost about $5,000,000 in the, collapse of Atlantic. It said it had held shares and notes of Atlantic and other securities of associated companies. In his report, Mr. Gregory, said the CBA purchases were made "upon my personal rec- ommendation."" He said the CBA probably will suffer a total loss of the cost of the shares but it is hoped the se- cured notes may be paid in full. The report continued: "T deeply regret that this loss; occurred during my chairman- ship of the committee. * The. convertible preferred shares were purchased at an average cost of $26.85 each There was no market for them on the unlisted market Tues- day, Traders said. Atlantie common shares on the unlisted market here Tues- iday traded at 30 cents bid and 140 asked. Earlier this year, they sold as high as $22.25 on the Toronto stock market. Hazen Hansard of Montreal, pesident of the 10,000-member |CBA, said he doesn't consider |Mr. Gregory's dual role as he- ing a conflict of interest. He said Mr. Gregory had reported the investments in Atlantic to the CBA's council and the coun- cil accepted his decision. REFUSED RESIGNATION "He tendered his resignation and we refused," said Mr, Han- jsard. "It's too bad that these things arise but he was not in- volved at all." Calling Mr, Gregory '"'a fine man, an honorable man," the \CBA president said 'hundreds lof others were hooked' on At- lantic's failure "and we're just in good company." The invested money came from CBA fees pending their use for the annual convention, Mr. Hansard said. Mr. Gregory's report said: "Atlantic Acceptance was a well - regarded company, con- sidered to be ably managed, and its earnings were increas- ing each year.
