The ugrcumnl as to the manner of transferring executive power from liucrtu lo the now provi. Ision stood the acid tesl of reduction to w riling, n prov ides that: "A government is t<? be constituted lin Mexi.f a character to he later I provided, which shall i": recognized by the I'nltcd states <.n (date te be fixed) and which from thai day for. ward shall exercise public functions until there shull be inaugurated u ' const it utiona) president." The brief procolol was signilicant in two tilings. 1; mala s n<? mention i-f Qen. Hucrta as the provisional presi. tknt and it omits the method of transfer which the Mexican delegates and mediators suggested and tu which the United States objected on the ground that its ret. mi..n would be tantamount lo recognition of th? existing regime. The Mexican pi in provided tliat Hucrta should name ;is 'minister of foreign affairs a man agreed on here for provisional presi. dent. 1 The Mexican delegates, while aban. doning the constitutional form of sue. cession as a part of the protocol, are Kutislb'd because it docs not speclii. ! eall> deny lluerta's right to name as minister of foreign affairs the man chosen here for provisional president if the latter sees lit to accept dosig. nation Irum him. It is not consider? il probable, how. ever, that tit-- now provisional presi. dent, who is likely lo b< a eonstitu. tioiialist, would lake iho executive power directly from Hucrta but ho might do so from some other indi. vhlual whom Hucrta might leave in a Ulli? lily. All parties now are concentrating on the second part of the peace plan which relates lo tho naming of ii>< provisional president and possibly will include his cabinet of four. Though the protocol is of compar? atively few words, it is tiie embodi. menl of that for w hieb I he l 'nile*! states lias been striving for more then a year '-elimination id Hucrta.
