Washington Luiz, President of Brazil has been deposed and a military junta has taken over the government of the republic. Getulio Vargas, defeated candidate in the presidential election last spring has been named provisional president. Just at a time when the financial and diplomatic world had settled back to await the outcome of what was expected to be a long-protracted civil war the military supporters of Luiz in the capital deserted him and demanded his retirement. With these very necessary props of government swept out from under him, Luiz had nothing to do but capitulate.
