The Chargé in Nicaragua ( Munro ) to the Secretary of State

Managua , January 13, 1928—9 a.m.
[Received 12:10 p.m.]

23. Antonio Medrano, one of the substitute judges of the Supreme Court, has been selected as the Liberal Vice Presidential candidate on the ticket with Moncada.³ His friends have asked me to ascertain whether the Department sees any reason to question the constitutionality of his election. Apparently article 126⁴ is the only one which could possibly bear on the question.
