Summary
President of Haiti from 1908 to 3 August 1911. His policies and initiatives included allowing exiled Haitians to return which created some stability during the early years of his mandate, to improve agricultural production and to build a nationwide railway network. Later, to satisfy American banana plantations, Haitian companies were taxed, resulting in unrest by small landowners who ultimately paid the price and then began to revolt in June 1911. Simon was eventually overthrown in a coup d'état.
