The idea of elections being "supervised" in one country-usually a small one by representatives of another country--usually a large one and, it must be confessed, often the United States, doesn't seem to be appealing. L.J. de Bekker, writes a letter on the subject of an election conducted some years ago by the United States Marine Corps in Haiti. Since that time there have been practically no elections in Haiti, although it would be obviously a simple matter to arrange one at any time. But the facts as de Bekker sets them forth give one pause in considering the coming election in Nicaragua.
