NICARAGUA & U.S.A.
NEUTRALITY INFRINGEMENTS? (Australian & N.Z. Cable A«nn.) WASHINGTON, April 12. Doctor Vaca, an agent for Nicaraguan Liberals, has issued a statement charging American marines with conscripting men of all classes and ages in Nicaragua for the services of the Diaz army, and that they are actively engaged in military operations, but short of actual duty in the firing line. He asserts that Nicaraguan citizens are seized by Admiral Latimer’s forces promptly equipped, and transported in lorries to the front, together with war materials, and that American Army aeroplanes are constantly doing scouting work for the Diaz Army, locating Liberal forces and appraising their numbers and determining their movements. The statement declares this is an object lesson of inhumanity’ likely long to live in the memory of Central American people.
