Assassin’s Bullets Prove Fatal to
President Somoza of Nicaragua
PANAMA, (41—President Anas-1
tasio Somoza, undisputed strong
man of Nicaragua for 20 years,
died Saturday of an assassin’s
bullets.
The 60-year-old Central Amer
ican leader never regained full
consciousness after an operation
performed a week ago Sunday by
a surgical team including sur
geons sent by President Eisen
hower. He died in the U.S. oper
ated Gorgas Hospital in the Pan
ama Canal Zone, where he was
flown after the Sept. 21 shooting
in which he suffered four wounds.
Under Nicaragua law, Somoza's
34-year-old son, Luis, succeeds to
the presidency. As president of
Congress, Luis was first vice
president designate. The Congress
made him acting president Friday.
Somoza died a few minutes af
ter receiving the last sacraments
of the Roman Catholic Church.
The colorful, 2Q0-pound strong
man had showed stesfly but slight
improvement in the five days fol
lowing the operations. But at mid
night Friday his condition took a
grave turn.
Somoza’s son-in-law, Guillarmo
Sevilla Sacasa, Nicaraguan am
bassador in Washington, told re
porters the body would be flown
to Managua, the Nicaraguan cap
ital. The Canal Zone governor,
William Potter, ordered flags
lowered to half staff.

said of his marksmanship.
