The President of Uruguay Assassin"ted'

The President OF Uruguay AssAssinated'
Idarte Borda, president of the Republic
of Uruguay, was assassinated at Monte
video, the capital Wednesday afternoon a
few minutes after he had left the cathedral,
where he had listened to the TIE Deum sung
in celebration of the anniversary of the IN
dependence of Uruguay. The shot that
killed the president was fired by Avelino Ar
renondo, 81, an officer in the Uruguayan
army. He says that he alone was respon--
sible, and that his reason was personal
hatred. An attempt was made to shoot
Borda last April, and the criminal was ar
rested. A bomb was sent him last May,
but suspicious were aroused and it was
turned over to the police. Borda was
elected president three years ago as a COM
bination candidate. He had not beer
popularity identified with the people, anc
had not held high officers, and his eleva
ton to the chief magistracy was distastetu
to many.
