Revolt Fails In Dominican Republic
In Santo Domingo, the Armed Forces crushed a small Rightist revolt in the heart of the Dominican Republic without firing a shot. Commodore Francisco J. Rivera Caminero said 47 people were arrested and no military members were involved. Rebels seized a radio station at Tamboril, south of Santiago, held it for about two hours, and broadcast a tape calling themselves the Democratic Revolutionary government led by Alcibiades Espinoza, a National Civic Union member, though his involvement could not be confirmed.
