Abstract

President Trujillo tt today one of the American mentalities which sce and fix icith keenest clearness the cardinal and formering realities of the epoch. And the sharp political qualities of the Dominican statesman iclio, devoted to the formula of Baltasar Gradan is altcays “onicalch and guard”, get not only to observe icith a serenity that insures the positiveness of the hit'but to foresee facts icith anticipations of great augurial extent. The booklet opened by these Unes, gathers matters that seem poured in by the hasty streams of present times, if ice attend to tlieir total immerion in this exceptional flood of the actual tcorld problems. And yet, thisevidenl flagrancy, ratlier than a real nctcness, represents the unfading and crystallised political thought of President Trujillo, because those conceptions that respond to original doctrines tchich are not icavering because oflack of faithy ñor emerge from lucky improvisations, are the only oncs that do not groic oíd.
