the evangelist's death eight years
ago.

ITO have resigned his post as War
Minister as q means of obtaining q
free hand to push Gen. Ramirez out.
A former amateur boxing cham
|pion and bluff, tough, cavalry Of
f1cer, Gen. Farrell has had little op-
portunity heretofore to demonstrate
his abilities as a statesman and his
capacity in that respect Is virtually
unknown.
1t was believed here, however, that
the fact that he has been serving as
Vice President might have Influenced
the army group opposing Gen. Ra-
mirez to put him into the Presidents
chair. It was recalled that on pre-
vious occasions when there had been
rumors that Gen. Ramirez might re-
sign there had been some anxiety in
Argentine circles that other Ameri-
can countries might balk at recog-
nizing new de facto government.
Situation Not Clear.
The army group thus might have
been influenced in backing Gen.
Farrell by the belief that he would
be regarded as logical successor to
Gen. Ramirez and that the question
of withdrawing recognition of the
government would not arise in other
American capitals.
Diplomatic circles were not so
sure Of this, however, for they
pointed out that Gen. Farrell was
not elected Vice President but was
appointed last October in a decree
signed by Gen. Ramirez and Foreign
Minister Gilbert.
