The article comments on the election of Brazil. Getulio Vargas is back, having been elected President of Brazil by a clear majority in a free and orderly election. What he plans to do on his return to Cattete Palace in Rio next January 31 is puzzling Washington as well as the Latin American capitals. In his first public statement after his victory he announced that he favored a Laborite State, referring to the English and Scandinavian governments, as an ideal centrist solution for threats of totalitarianism from the right and the left. More uncertain is his stand on foreign affairs, especially his attitude toward the U.S.
