I have the honor to inclose a copy of a note from the Financial
Adviser to the Secretary of Finance, replying to a request for
information regarding the non-payment of checks....
In his reply the Financial Adviser informs the Department of
Finance that "the payment of these salaries has been suspended
by order of the American Minister until further orders are
received from him."
My Government protests against this act of violence which is an
attack upon the dignity of the people and Government of Haiti.
J. BARAU, Secretary of Foreign Affairs.
