Guatemala and the Domin- ican Republic were involved zn plots, conspiracies and attempted invasions which have kept the Caribbean in turmoil for three years. The committee sterniy suggested that any repetition be met heart- on with sanctions under terms of the Rio Hemispheric Mutual De- fence Treaty. An 18,000-word report brushed aside diplomatic niceties and rec- ommended selection of a five-man watchdog committee to check on how faithfully the three countries live up to promises to abide by de- clsions reached. The report was turned over to the Council of the Organization of American States. which made it public. The Council is the central organization of the 21 American republics. The investigation was prompted by a complaint by Haiti that the Dominican Oovemmcnt participat- ed in an unsucce ‘ul plot last November and December against her Government. The Dominican Republic levelled similar charges against Cuba. Guatemala and Haiti. Both Haiti and the Dominican Republic, shar- ing a Caribbean island, asked tho!- the Rio Treaty be invoked. . This treaty provides for mutual assistance to keep the peace in the hemisphere. Exasperated by several previous fruitless attempts to deal with Caribbean feuding and faoed'wlt:i loss of its prestige. the Counctl on Jan.. 6 unanimously set the treaty in motion and appolntedthe fact- finding committee.
