Dominican Party

On 16 August 1935, the HIN radio station, known as "The Voice of the Dominican Party", was opened.

The insignia of the Party had a motto that coincided with Trujillo's initials: Later, he added: Moralidad (Morality) = Molina.

They needed to carry "[the] three strikes" (Spanish: "los tres golpes"): The party had no real ideology other than support for Trujillo.

However, it was apparent there was no place for the party in the more open society, and it was finally wound up a little under two weeks after voting to dissolve itself on December 28, 1961.

However, this was done only to impress foreign observers that democratization was progressing, and to allow Trujillo to monitor opponents.
