Government had submitted to the United States Ambassador, Mr. Sumner Welles, a counter-proposal by which the President would surrender his office to General Alberto Herrara, the present Minister of War.
General Herrara would form a National Cabinet representing all political factions and the work for mediation in the nation's political conflict would be continued.
