Haiti Faces New Repression as Duvalier Tightens Grip
Diplomats fear the departure of the OAS investigation team may prompt fresh repression of opponents of President Francois Duvalier. Haiti offered safe haven to asylum seekers at Dominican embassies after a weekend of terror, while the Dominican government weighs allowing all 22 to leave. The OAS mission plans to fly to Santo Domingo to discuss refugees with President Juan Bosch and continue its inquiry. Duvalier warned supporters at a rally that action may follow if people do not align with his regime. In New York, a retired Hayden Planetarium lecturer, Henry M. Neely, 84, has died.
