MANAGUA, Nicaragua, June 21.—A patrol of National Guardsmen attacked a group of peasants, killing one and wounding several of them. The peasants fought back defending themselves and killing one National Guardsman. The attack took place at Chaguite Grande.
Another attack occurred near Samulali on Saturday and resulted in the killing of two rebels and one National Guardsman.
These attacks are said to be the result of the arrival here of Admiral C. H. Woodward, chairman of the American Electoral Committee. He is pressing constantly upon the rebels in order to avoid troubles in the election he will supervise.
This definitely exposes the utter hypocrisy of Stimson's statement that the United States Marines would not engage in fightings with the rebels.
