Berle backs Johnsons Dominican intervention decision
Former Under secretary Adolf A. Berle argues in Reporter magazine that President Johnson acted at the right time to send Marines to the Dominican Republic. He contends nonintervention left the country to a Castro style regime and notes Latin America expects U.S. action to deter communist subversion. Berle outlines the planned Bosch uprising, Cuban and Czech trained guerrillas, and the wider Caribbean security stakes.
