It would be useless to pretend that the solution reached by the Spaniards in Mexico is a satisfactory one. The new government, dominated as it is by rightist republican elements, has been received without enthusiasm. José Giral, the Prime Minister, is a colorless person, a man of little force or capacity for leadership, and his Cabinet is almost as pallid. Its outstanding member, Angel Ossorio Gallardo, is also the most conservative. Whether the Giral Cabinet will win the necessary two-thirds vote in the coming Cortes meeting remains to be seen. Even if it does, the result will be a legal rather than an actual political endorsement. Inevitably under the circumstances, the new Cabinet takes office in an atmosphere of skepticism.
