SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, March 6.— Unusual precautions will be taken to prevent repeating in the presidential elections {n Santo Domingo, scheduled for March 15, say Dominican newspa- pers. In former elections each person was required to stick his finger in a pot of indelible Iink as he voted. Later a chemical was supplied by certain voters to remove the ink s=o they could vote again. To guard against repeating in the coming election not only will each voter be required to be marked, but ‘an election official will shave him.

To be doubly sure both ink and sufety razors have been ordered. 58 TOLL IN TRIBAL WAR.
